Feature Request Feature Request for Unity Shader Graph

A simple node that would enable the users of shader graph to create more interactive shaders directly in the editor: Tags

Tags should be a public node always displayed in the editor (maybe colapsed not connected to anything?) It is in the generated shader code and generating the code saving it in a different file just to edit the tags every time you fix enhance or change something is annoying. Especially because the preview during shader scripting is not working on interactive shaders like in the example link below.

ShaderGraph Code:

Code (CSharp):

1. Shader "Shader Graphs/2DFogOfWarShader" {
2. Properties {
3. [NoScaleOffset]  _MainTex ("MainTex", 2D) = "white" { }
4. _TeamNumber ("TeamNumber", Float) = 0.000000
5. _ThisLocalPlayerTeamNumber ("ThisLocalPlayerTeamNumber", Float) = 0.000000
6. [ToggleUI]  _SharedVisionInTeam ("SharedVisionInTeam", Float) = 1.000000
7. }
8. SubShader {
9. Tags { "QUEUE"="Transparent+0" "RenderType"="Transparent" "RenderPipeline"="UniversalPipeline" }
10.  
11.  
12. // Stats for Vertex shader:
13. //        d3d11: 8 math

Example to achieve something like this:

ps: Also I was not sure where to post such simple feature requests a Community Manager could move this thread if necessary.

 

+1 from me.

 

Yes I just want to set "DisableBatching" = "True" in my shader :/

 

Yes please! It really cripples shader graph to have to manually compile the shader to add a tag.

 

I need this.

 

+1 Trying to set a replacement shader for the Camera

 

This would be good for me too!

 

Found this topic while searching for any info on how to fix the shader warning "The shader of this material does not support skybox rendering" when using a custom skybox shader made with shadergraph.

In shader graph's blackboard, click [ + ] > [ Keyword ] > [ Enum ].
I've added keyword "RenderType" with a default value of "Background". This adds a shader tag "RenderType"="Background" which removes the warning.

Hope this is the right solution and as intended by Unity.

Any word on this request?

I tried @CosmicWorker 's Shadergraph enum solution but it doesn't appear to modify the RenderType tag at all. I want to set "RenderType"="TreeLeaf", in my Shadergraph but it does not work. I'm using Unity 2020.3.30f1.

Would love this feature...

Maybe some day we will reach at least 50% functionality of ASE with SG.
