Frequently Asked Questions

How do I apply RGB Hatch online?

Open the RGB Hatch preset, add your image or video, and adjust the loaded effect layers to suit your source. Preview the result before exporting.

What creates the colored hatching?

RGB Shift, Cubify, and Stripe form the main structure. Exposure, blur, noise, sharpening, Levels, and saturation shape the resulting pattern.

How do I change the line spacing?

Adjust Stripe frequency and width controls. Then revisit Cubify scale and the blur layers, since block size and softness influence how separate the lines remain.

Can I make it less saturated?

Lower Hue/Saturation intensity near the end of the stack. Reduce RGB Shift offsets if colored edges separate too strongly, while retaining the stripe pattern.

How is this different from Cross Hatch?

Cross Hatch creates monochrome intersecting ink lines. RGB Hatch uses channel separation and an RGB stripe treatment, producing a more electronic, colorful surface rather than a pen-drawing look.
