I'm wanting to use a clip path to expose an image behind another image.
Im using an svg circle element. The result I want is for a soft, gradient edge, instead of a hard edge supplied by the clipPath.
Is this possible? I know that I can do it with a mask, but cant seem to get it to work with clipPath.
Heres my code so far:
<svg id="mysvg" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" viewBox="0 0 500 500">
<defs>
<radialGradient id="grad" cx="50%" cy="50%" r="50%">
<stop stop-color="white" offset="0%"/>
<stop stop-color="black" offset="100%"/>
</radialGradient>
<clipPath id="clip1" >
<circle cx="0" cy="0" r="30" fill="url(#grad)" />
</clipPath>
</defs>
<image id="darkMap" xlink:href="images/darkMapSml.jpg" width="100%" height="100%" ></image>
<image id="topImg" xlink:href="images/lightMapSml.jpg" width="100%" height="100%" clip-path="url(#clip1)" />
</svg>
