I'm concerned about the complexity this will add to the SVG implementation as we're looking to transition to WebRender.
Can the desired effects be achieved by interleaving HTML and SVG content today? e.g. It seems like introductory notes example could just use a separate SVG element that had fixed positioning instead of needing to build fixed-position into SVG. Do other browsers intend to implement these features? -Jeff On Sun, Dec 25, 2016 at 9:47 PM, Ramin <g-ra...@kddi-tech.com> wrote: > Intent to Implement: adding vector effects non-scaling-size, non-rotation > and fixed-position to SVG > > Contact emails > -------- > te-fuk...@kddi-tech.com, g-ra...@kddi-tech.com, sa-...@kddi-tech.com > > Summary > -------- > To offer vector effects regarding special coordinate transformations and > graphic drawings as described in following Spec link, > SVG Tiny 1.2 introduced the vector-effect property.
