Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about the free online backdrop filter generator.

It filters whatever is painted behind an element, so a blurred translucent panel produces the frosted glass effect used by many interfaces.
Blur, brightness, saturate, contrast, grayscale, sepia, hue-rotate and opacity, in the order they appear in the generated declaration.
Safari and some older engines only understand -webkit-backdrop-filter, so both declarations are written for you.
A blur between eight and sixteen pixels with a slight brightness and saturation boost, over a background that is about twenty percent white.
Yes. Filters apply left to right, so blurring before adjusting colour usually looks cleaner than sharpening a blurred image afterwards.
The element needs something behind it inside the same stacking context, and the panel itself must be at least partly transparent to show the effect.
A large blurred area can cost real graphics work, so keep the blurred region reasonably small and avoid animating the blur radius.
Provide a solid or semi transparent background colour as a fallback, so the panel stays readable when the filter is not supported.
Yes. The preview panel receives the same declarations that are copied, over a colourful background so the blur is easy to judge.
