This feature is well established and works across many devices and browser versions. It’s been available across browsers since July 2015.
The in1 read-only property of the SVGFEBlendElement interface reflects the in attribute of the given element.
An SVGAnimatedString object.
In this example, two <feBlend> elements are defined in a filter, each with a different in attribute.
<svg viewBox="0 0 200 200" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
<filter id="blend-filter">
<feBlend in="SourceGraphic" operator="over" />
<feBlend in="BackgroundImage" operator="in" />
</filter>
<rect
x="20"
y="20"
width="100"
height="100"
fill="red"
filter="url(#blend-filter)" />
<circle cx="100" cy="100" r="50" fill="blue" filter="url(#blend-filter)" />
</svg>
We can access the in attribute:
const feBlends = document.querySelectorAll("feBlend");
console.log(feBlends[0].in1.baseVal); // Output: "SourceGraphic"
console.log(feBlends[1].in1.baseVal); // Output: "BackgroundImage"
