If those were inverted colours, you'd see grey instead of the fill from the bottom. There, the double edges atop eachother represent object A and B with semi-transparent subpixels atop the background,Īnd although the background shows through, the bottom object is rendered as well. If it's for a pixel art, there would be no issues with the rendering even if there are semi-transparent pixels, only problem appears when the objects are overlapping -where 200% of adding up alpha is rendered solid white.Ĭompositing non-squares with some overlapping here and there Quite time consuming and complicated, but you can pull in all objects with the image filter primitive, and composite them manually. So there is a way to simulate that by custom filtering. If A and B was composited first, and alpha compositing would be after, 40+60 would make a fully opaque pixel. On screen it will be 40% of object B, and 60% of (40% background plus 60% object A).Īs you can see, alpha values are not adding up, you can still see the background through the two objects. Now, they are rendered that after the first object you'll get 40% of the background, 60% of the object, and after that with object B Lastly, it all comes down to how the objects alpha values are composited.īy default, the background is obscured by an object with alpha A (60% for the example) and another object with alpha B (let it be 40%). It works as if you duplicated your objects atop eachother many times (which is another suggested solution at the official faq section), but personally I'd not use that, only if in a hurry.īy raised alpha values you alter the object's opacity, so semi-transparent pixelart won't work. There are two ways of doing that, with filtering.įirst, there is the pixellize filter, which makes the alpha values "steeper". Hence they prefer altering the rendering routine. There are some ways eliminating the problem with anti-aliasing on.īy using overlapping, you won't experience any gap even if zooming out as much as the squares of your image are rendered at 1 px (theoretically, haven't checked it again).Īs much as it works, it's not a preferred solution by developers (although it could be automated I guess). Would it be possible for the Inkscape gods to come out with a feature that would allow the user to export their work with the option of having anti-aliasing off or on? Here is a picture of what I have in mind: png with anti-aliasing turned off in the Documents Property settings, but the exported image still came out anti-aliased regardless whether anti-aliasing is checked off in the Documents Property settings. The difference is like sour and sweet, night and day, happy and sad.: In this image, anti-aliasing is turned off. In this first image, anti-aliasing is on, notice you can see gaps in-between the individual squares: In the following images below, you can see what a difference anti-aliasing can make. Anti-aliasing is great, although I do wish there was an option to turn it off when exporting pixel art to.
