How to draw circle in unity by shader and anti-aliasing

I have drawn a circle by shader, but I can't get anti-aliasing to work.

I tried finding an answer here http://answers.unity3d.com/questions/521984/how-do-you-draw-2d-circles-and-primitives.html, but I have to use discard to draw circle.

Here is a picture of my current shader result and the shader code:

How do you make a shader graph in Unity?

In Unity a Shader Graph Asset appears as a normal shader. To create a Shader Graph Asset you click the create menu in the Project Window and select Shader from the dropdown. From here you can create either a PBR or Unlit Shader Graph Asset. This will create a Shader Graph Asset in the project.

It's really easy to apply anti-alias to a circle.

1.First, you need 3 variables to do this. Get the radius, distance of the circle. Also create a float value(let's called that borderSize) that can be used to determine how far the anti-alias should go. The radius, distance and borderSize are the three variables.

2.Find the t with smoothstep function using those 3 variables from #1.

float t = smoothstep(radius + borderSize, radius - borderSize, distance); 

3.Mix the color before returning it.

Let's say that _BoundColor is the circle fill color and _BgColor is the background color.

If using GLSL using the mix function. If using Unity, use the lerp function. Both function are interchanging and the parameters are the-same.

col = lerp(_BoundColor, _BgColor, t);

The t is from #2. You can now return col in the fragment function.


These are the 3 steps put together:

if (dis > radius) {
    float t = smoothstep(radius + borderSize, radius - borderSize, distance);
    col = lerp(_BoundColor, _BgColor, t); 
}
else {
    float t = smoothstep(radius + borderSize, radius - borderSize, distance);
    col = lerp(_BoundColor, _BgColor, t);
}
return col;

OUTPUT WITHOUT ANTI-ALIASING:

Finally, the whole code(Tested on PC and Android but should work on iOS too)

}

After first pass I GrabPass result and apply anti-alias in second pass by averaging border pixels.
