saturate()

The saturate() CSS function super-saturates or desaturates the input image. Its result is a <filter-function>.

Syntax

saturate(amount)

Parameters

amount
The amount of the conversion, specified as a <number> or a <percentage>. A value under 100% desaturates the image, while a value over 100% super-saturates it. A value of 0% is completely unsaturated, while a value of 100% leaves the input unchanged. The lacuna value for interpolation is 1.

Examples

saturate(0)     /* Completely unsaturated */
saturate(.4)    /* 40% saturated */
saturate(100%)  /* No effect */
saturate(200%)  /* Double saturation */
