scale

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

<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>
