Filters (e.g. Gaussian blur) do not work
SvgGaussianBlur has a bunch of code for computing the gaussian blur of an image, but none of it seems to actually be called. Am I missing something? Cheers.
Currently, none of the W3C filter examples seems to work. The filter classes are created dynamically after a class lookup using reflection - though there is no direct call in the code, they are applied, so that is not the reason why they are not working.
I'm also affected by this issue. I'm using a matrix transform filter to sharpen parts of the image. Instead, the whole image appears black.
Yes, I didn't really look into this until now - I hoped that someone with a better understanding would have a look (like the original developers...). Maybe I will have a go at this sometime later, but this doesn't look like an easy fix.
Yes, just by the sheer fact, that this ticket is open for years now, I can estimate, that this isn't trivial to fix. But thank you anyways for your help!

Not sure if this is your problem, but if there are floats in your matrix, and you use a (non-English) locale where the decimal point is a comma, there has been a bug in reading the float values (fixed a few days ago). Anyway, I'm going to have a look at the filter stuff, and if you have a concrete example image of a filter not working, I may have a look at that first.
I guess, that this shouldn't be the case here. I've attached one example SVG for you. You can replace the linked picture with anything you like. The image should show a partially sharpened area in the lower right corner. Test.zip
By the way: This is, how it comes out right now:
...which is no surprise after checking the implementation: the only implemented filters are feColourMatrix, feGaussianBlur (partly), feMerge and feOffset.
These are exactly the ones that are used in one of the example images - __issue-083-01.svg. feGaussianBlur works with one value for stdDeviation, but not with two, and the result image looks different from the one in the browser (less blurred). The other 3 (more basic ones) seem to work correctly.
For reference, the following filter primitives are not implemented:
feBlend, feComponentTransfer, feComposite, feConvolveMatrix, feDiffuseLighting, feDisplacementMap, feFlood, feImage, feMorphology, feSpecularLighting, feTile and feTurbulence.
Do you think, that it would be possible to implement feConvolveMatrix, feComponentTransfer and feBlend in a reasonable amount of time? Those are the ones used in my project. Maybe they can be adopted from the Inkscape source code or some other open source SVG rendering engine.
Well, it depends on who will do the work, and what is a reasonable amount of time ;) I started to look at the filter code, but I have no experience there (and not that much free time), so this may take some time, but I cannot say how much at the moment. Any help would be appreciated, of course!
Unfortunately I can't help you much. I'm horrible at maths and don't know the code at all.
Has there been any progress with this at all? It would be amazing if we could get more of the filters to work, especially the lighting filters such as feSpecularLighting and feDiffuseLighting are just such a powerful and widely used asset of SVG and it would be awesome if the library supported them.
Unfortunately, no progress here. I had abandoned the PR I intialially started, it didn't get anywhere (I actually forgot the details), and so far nobody else has tried this.

You can try using https://github.com/wieslawsoltes/Svg.Skia
NuGet: https://www.nuget.org/packages/svg.skia
It's based on this library but requires SkiaSharp.
@wieslawsoltes - is #590 still something to consider? It would be a big progress, an would also help this this kind of issues.

@mrbean-bremen Yes, but not really possible to integrate with Svg.Skia at this point. I would still prefer splitting but preferably via partial classes, not really sure if that would work. I have some ideas, but not much time on hand.
Thanks - good to hear that this is still an option! Time constraints are an issue most of us have...

interesting, I will take a look, thank you!
it doesn't look that complicated to implement these filters. maybe i'll try to mess around with it a bit...
