The Hash node on the VFX Loom graph canvas.
Fig. 1 The Hash node in its resting, collapsed state on the VFX Loom graph canvas.

Overview

Converts a scalar or Vector2 into a deterministic 0..1 value.

Stable hash source in the documented 0..1 domain. If both inputs are disconnected, the implementation hashes zero.

Usage

In practice

  • Use Hash when the graph needs Converts a scalar or Vector2 into a deterministic 0..1 value.
  • Stable hash source in the documented 0..1 domain. If both inputs are disconnected, the implementation hashes zero.
  • Use it as a stable control or coordinate source, then connect its value to the node that consumes it.
