scale

Baseline Widely available

This feature is well established and works across many devices and browser versions. It’s been available across browsers since July 2015.

The scale attribute defines the displacement scale factor to be used on a <feDisplacementMap> filter primitive. The amount is expressed in the coordinate system established by the primitiveUnits attribute on the <filter> element.

You can use this attribute with the following SVG elements:

Example

html
<svg viewBox="0 0 480 220" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
  <filter id="displacementFilter" x="-20%" y="-20%" width="140%" height="140%">
    <feTurbulence
      type="turbulence"
      baseFrequency="0.05"
      numOctaves="2"
      result="turbulence" />
    <feDisplacementMap in2="turbulence" in="SourceGraphic" scale="5" />
  </filter>
  <filter id="displacementFilter2" x="-20%" y="-20%" width="140%" height="140%">
    <feTurbulence
      type="turbulence"
      baseFrequency="0.05"
      numOctaves="2"
      result="turbulence" />
    <feDisplacementMap in2="turbulence" in="SourceGraphic" scale="50" />
  </filter>

  <circle cx="100" cy="100" r="80" style="filter: url(#displacementFilter);" />
  <circle
    cx="100"
    cy="100"
    r="80"
    style="filter: url(#displacementFilter2);
  transform: translateX(240px);" />
</svg>
