Filters support

The following filters are supported in the library ^[1]

See Filter Effects

:

• feFlood: This filter primitive creates a rectangle filled with color and opacity values
• feImage: This filter primitive refers to a graphic external to this filter element
• feGaussianBlur: This filter primitive performs a Gaussian blur on the input image
• feDiffuseLighting: This filter primitive lights an image using the alpha channel as a bump map. The resulting image depends on the light color, light position and surface geometry of the input bump map.
• feSpecularLighting: This filter primitive lights a source graphic using the alpha channel as a bump map. The resulting image depends on the light color, light position and surface geometry of the input bump map
• feDropShadow: This filter creates a drop shadow of the input image. Note that it is a filter specified in SVG 1.2^[2]
  See SVG Filters 1.2, Part 2
• feOffset: This filter primitive offsets the input image relative to its current position in the image space by the specified vector.
• feMerge: This filter primitive composites input image layers on top of each other
• feComposite: This filter performs the combination of the two input images pixel-wise in image space using one of the Porter-Duff compositing operations

Supported lights

The following lights elements are supported under the feDiffuseLighting and feSpecularLighting elements:

• feDistantLight
• fePointLight
• feSpotLight

Limitations

• For the moment, the light effects are not correctly handled in a some of the cases
• A lot of the Porter-Duff compositing operations used in the feComposite filter are not converted correctly to the JavaFX equivalent
