The stop-color
attribute indicates what color to use at a gradient stop.
Note: With respect to gradients, SVG treats the transparent
keyword differently than CSS. SVG does not calculate gradients in pre-multiplied space, so transparent
really means transparent black. So, specifying a stop-color
with the value transparent
is equivalent to specifying a stop-color
with the value black
and a stop-opacity
with the value 0
.
Note: As a presentation attribute, stop-color
can be used as a CSS property.
As a presentation attribute, it can be applied to any element but it has effect only on the following element: <stop>
