Normal is painted with one color determined by the vector. For a radial gradient, a normal is aĬircle intersecting the vector at a right angle. For a linear gradient, a normal is a line A gradient normal defines how the colors in a vector are Or stroke properties to reference the gradient.Ĭolor transitions for linear and radial gradients are defined by a Once a gradient is defined, a graphics element can beįilled or stroked with the gradient by setting the fill SVG provides for three types of gradients: Gradients consist of smooth color transitions between points on aĭrawing surface. SVG 1.1 did not define how styles applied to inherited paint server content. The use-element shadow tree model for templatingĪllows cloned content to inherit different styles than the original. Must be used in rendering the paint server effect,Īs if they were the paint server element's own children. When a paint-server element has a shadow tree, The template element's own shadow tree, otherwise. The corresponding elements that are used, or would be used, to generate If it has child elements other than descriptive elements, The child content of the template element, The corresponding elements for the element instances Which must behave equivalently to a use-element shadow tree,Įxcept that the host is the current paint server element. The user agent must generate a shadow tree for this element, If the current element has no child elements other than descriptive elements, The initial value for the attribute is only substitutedĪfter all valid URL references are exhausted.

The user agent must determine the value of the attributeĪnd use it as the value for the current element.įrom recursive cross-references if required. Then the URL's target element is used as the template element, as follows:įor any of the specified attributes not defined on the current element, Or if the current element has no child elements other than descriptive elements, If any of the specified attributes are not

The limits of the templating process, as follows: The description of each ‘href’ attribute in this chapter defines Then the attribute value or cloned content is derivedįrom another element referenced by the template's own ‘href’ attribute. Or does not define the specified attribute, Thus, if the referenced template element does not have relevant child content (subject to security limits on external file resources, Templating can be indirect to an arbitrary level (different chapters in SVG 1.1 had inconsistent guidance on this point),Īnd the 'inheritance' of child elements is represented through a shadow tree.

The exclusion of descriptive content is new in SVG 2 for ‘ pattern’,Ĭonsistent with the behavior of gradients,Īnd with changes to make descriptive content valid for any SVG element.Īlso new: template cross-references may be to external file resources Than the child content of the template element is cloned to replace it. If corresponding attributes are not specifiedįurthermore, if the current element does not have anyĬhild content other than descriptive elements, Which can be used to define a compatible paint server element as a template.Īttributes defined for the template element Most paint server elements accept an ‘href’ attribute, Property on the paint-server element or any of its ancestors is set Paint-server elements are never rendered directly their only usage isĪs something that can be referenced usingĪnd this declaration must have importance over any other CSS rule or presentation attribute.Īre available for referencing even when the display Properties do not inherit from the element referencing Into a paint-server element from its ancestors Paint servers are used by including a URL reference inĪ fill or stroke property (i.e. SVG defines several types of paint servers: General discussion of filling and stroking objects.
