Accessing the scale attribute

In this example, the <feDisplacementMap> element defined in the <filter> includes a scale attribute.

html
<svg viewBox="0 0 200 200" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"> <defs> <filter id="filter1"> <!-- Displacement Map --> <feDisplacementMap in="SourceGraphic" scale="20"> <feFuncR type="table" tableValues="0 1" /> </feDisplacementMap> </filter> </defs> <rect x="20" y="20" width="100" height="100" fill="red" filter="url(#filter1)" /> </svg> 

We can access the scale attribute and get its value:

js
const displacementMap = document.querySelector("feDisplacementMap"); console.log(displacementMap.scale.baseVal); // Output: 20
