System Information
Operating system:
Ubuntu 22.04
Graphics card:
Radeon RX 6600 XT

Blender Version
3.2.2

Short description of error
When using the 'Attribute' node in an EEVEE material, transparency using the blend modes 'Alpha Hashed' and 'Alpha Clip' no longer works (visually the same as if blend mode is set to Opaque)

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error

  1. Default startup file
  2. Use EEVEE
  3. Change blend mode on default cube material to 'Alpha Hashed'
  4. Change alpha on material to a value between 0 and 1 (e.g. 0.5)
  5. Plug in an 'Attribute' node to any value on the material, use any attribute name (including invalid attributes that don't exist)
  6. When viewing in material preview or rendered mode, the semi-transparent blending effect of the material will break

Thanks for the report. I'm not able to reproduce this issue. Could you redo the bug in uploaded file?:

Confirmed again, cube is solid despite alpha being less than 1. When disconnecting the attribute node, cube goes back to being semi-transparent.

I can't reproduce this but it seems this patch dd19d6456a is trying to fix this?

It's merged into 3.4 alpha. (Also probably coming to 3.3.1 instead of 3.3.0.)

I wasn't able to reproduce in 3.2.2 itself so I'm not sure if updating version will help. But can be checked just to eliminate the doubt: https://builder.blender.org/download/daily

I can reproduce the issue on 3.2, but is fixed by the commit mentioned by Sun Kim. Can you try the 3.4 daily build as mentioned above to confirm that it is fixed?
