The stdDeviation attribute explains the standard deviation for the blur operation. Only <feGaussianBlur> element is using this attribute.
Syntax:
stdDeviation = <number-optional-number>
Attribute Values: The stdDeviation attribute accepts the values mentioned above and described below
- number-optional-number: It is a pair of numbers. The first number denotes the standard deviation value along the X-axis. The second value denotes the standard deviation value along the Y-axis. If only one value is given then it is considered as a standard deviation along both the axis.
Note: The default value for stdDeviation is 0.
Example 1: Below example illustrates the use of stdDeviation when its value is 1
