This feature is well established and works across many devices and browser versions. It’s been available across browsers since July 2015.
The flood-color attribute indicates what color to use to flood the current filter primitive subregion.
Note: As a presentation attribute, flood-color also has a CSS property counterpart: flood-color. When both are specified, the CSS property takes priority.
You can use this attribute with the following SVG elements:
<svg viewBox="0 0 420 200" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
<filter id="flood1">
<feFlood flood-color="skyblue" x="0" y="0" width="200" height="200" />
</filter>
<filter id="flood2">
<feFlood flood-color="seagreen" x="0" y="0" width="200" height="200" />
</filter>
<rect x="0" y="0" width="200" height="200" filter="url(#flood1)" />
<rect x="220" y="0" width="200" height="200" filter="url(#flood2)" />
</svg>
