Filters are rendered in the wrong color space

[Jaspervdg]

Inkscape does not support the color-interpolation-filters attribute, and implicitly assumes that it is always set to sRGB. As Inkscape also does not write this attribute and the default is actually linearRGB (in contrast to color-interpolation, which is sRGB by default) this results in an incorrect rendering of just about any filter and can cause inconsistencies between Inkscape and other programs.

I would be interested in knowing why this was marked as triaged. If there is a valid reason, I'd love to know it. (As far as I know Inkscape still simply does "the wrong thing".)

I may be wrong, but as I understand it, triage is a step higher after confirmed. It means that we know there's something wrong and what to do to fix it. Confirm means that we've just reproduced the issue.

I guess that makes sense, thanks for the link.

Inkscape now supports color-interpolation-filters. Fixed in commit 11972.
