Chapter 13. Filter Effects

Greatly expanded in v0.46.

Filter Effects [http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG11/filters.html] (Filters) are a feature of SVG that allow an SVG viewer to change the presentation of an object in a well-defined manner such as adding texture to a Fill, giving an object a blurred shadow, or modifying the object’s color. Version 0.45 of Inkscape introduced support for the Gaussian Blur Filter primitive. Version 0.46 expands support to almost all SVG Filter primitives.
