SVG feComposite improvements #2353

This attempts to address some of the issues pointed out in #1450

The example doesn't work because it depends on BackgroundImage source. This is not supported by any of the modern browsers (working on getting that into the BCD. There is a workaround to this problem, but the document doesn't explain what the problem is. Further, that workaround also works-around a bug in Firefox that it can't use an FeImage "partial" as a source - ie you have to pull in a remote URL you can't define a shape and reference that. All very ugly.

Anyway, this does two things.

  1. In the workaround section it explains what this is for, and why it is needed.
  2. In the fecomposite doc I start the doc by showing what compositing actually means using a modified version of the workaround. The example code updated with same working stuff.

Appreciate some review. I know little about SVG other than this :-)

This looks OK to me. I gave it a light copy edit and feel like it makes sense. But I'm certainly not an SVG expert...anything to add?

Hrm, I just decided to get this merged. Any further improvements can come later. Thanks for all your investigation on this @hamishwillee !

Dang. I just finished work :-)
I trust your judgement, Chris.

<p><code>BackgroundImage</code> is not supported as a filter source in modern browsers (see the <a href="/en-US/docs/Web/SVG/Element/feComposite#browser_compatibility">feComposite compatibility table</a>). We therefore need to import one of the images to blend inside the filter itself, using an <code>&lt;feImage&gt;</code> element.</p>

Nitpick: I think, we intend by two spaces.

<p>The <strong><code>&lt;feComposite&gt;</code></strong> <a href="/en-US/docs/Web/SVG">SVG</a> filter primitive performs the combination of two input images pixel-wise in image space using one of the Porter-Duff compositing operations: <code>over</code><em>, </em><code>in</code><em>, </em><code>atop</code><em>, </em><code>out</code><em>, </em><code>xor</code>, and <code>lighter</code>. Additionally, a component-wise <code>arithmetic</code> operation (with the result clamped between [0..1]) can be applied.</p>

I think, the <em> element is misplaced here.

I think we had some MathML elsewhere. Might be more apt here.

<p>where:</p>
<ul>
<li><code>i1</code> and <code>i2</code> indicate the corresponding pixel channel values of the input image, which map to {{SVGAttr("in")}} and {{SVGAttr("in2")}} respectively</li>
<li>{{SVGAttr("k1")}},{{SVGAttr("k2")}},{{SVGAttr("k3")}},and {{SVGAttr("k4")}} indicate the values of the attributes with the same name.</li>

Shouldn't the opening » go here?

<p><code>BackgroundImage</code> cannot be used as a compositing source on modern browsers, so we can't define a filter that composites using whatever pixels happen to be under the filter as one of the sources.

I feel, like „Workaround” should be lowercase here.

@hamishwillee I found some minor stylistic nitpicks. Are you fine with me filling a PR on addressing them?

@sideshowbarker validator is flagging this. Should I file upstream or is this a bug in the docs?

That was a conformance bug in the checker (thanks for the heads-up).

I fixed it just now in validator/validator@970b6a5
