This is an experimental technology
Because this technology's specification has not stabilized, check the compatibility table for usage in various browsers. Also note that the syntax and behavior of an experimental technology is subject to change in future versions of browsers as the specification changes.
Summary
The mask-image CSS property sets the image that is used as mask layer for an element.
| Initial value | none |
|---|---|
| Applies to | all elements; In SVG, it applies to container elements excluding the <defs> element and all graphics elements |
| Inherited | no |
| Media | visual |
| Computed value | as specified, but with URIs made absolute |
| Animation type | discrete |
| Canonical order | the unique non-ambiguous order defined by the formal grammar |
Syntax
/* Keyword value */ mask-image: none; /* <mask-source> value */ mask-image: url(masks.svg#mask1); /* <image< values */ mask-image: linear-gradient(rgba(0, 0, 0, 1.0), transparent); mask-image: image(url(mask.png), skyblue); /* Multiple values */ mask-image: image(url(mask.png), skyblue), linear-gradient(rgba(0, 0, 0, 1.0), transparent); /* Global values */ mask-image: inherit; mask-image: initial; mask-image: unset;
Values
none- This keyword is interpreted as a transparent black image layer.
<mask-source>- A
<url>reference to a<mask>or to a CSS image. <image>- An image value used as mask image layer.
