Transform transform.displace
The Image Displace node on the VFX Loom graph canvas.
Fig. 1 The Image Displace node in its resting, collapsed state on the VFX Loom graph canvas.

Overview

Offsets source sampling with another image.

Uses red/green displacement channels and shared image sampling. With no displacement map, zero strength, or zero influences, matching-resolution output is identity.

Usage

In practice

  • Use Image Displace when the graph needs Offsets source sampling with another image.
  • Uses red/green displacement channels and shared image sampling. With no displacement map, zero strength, or zero influences, matching-resolution output is identity.
  • Use it where the graph needs coordinate or image-space movement; keep sampling and edge policy aligned with the source artwork.

Notes / limitations

  • No step is declared for Strength, X Influence, or Y Influence.
