Intent: As of Nightly 79 (shipping in release 7/28) I intend to turn backdrop-filter on by default for all systems on which WebRender is enabled.
Here is a list of systems and their current status with regard to shipping WebRender: https://wiki.mozilla.org/Platform/GFX/WebRender_Where The feature has been developed behind the preference: layout.css.backdrop-filter.enabled Status in Other Browsers: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/backdrop-filter Edge: 17 Opera: 34 (feature-flagged) Chrome: 76 Safari: 9 (vendor-prefix) Firefox: 70 (feature-flagged) Product Manager: Martin Balfanz Bug: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1618013 Intent To Implement: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/mozilla.dev.platform/backdrop-filter%7Csort:date/mozilla.dev.platform/7tgkiUSa70w/iruXob5jAQAJ More Information: The backdrop-filter pref will be set to true on all systems, but backdrop-filter’s functionality will not be available unless WebRender is also enabled and available. Developers can check for backdrop-filter’s availability via CSS.supports() or @supports. Developers can still explicitly turn off backdrop-filter by disabling its pref in about:config. If WebRender were to crash and become unavailable, backdrop-filter will also become unavailable. Subsequent calls to CSS.supports() will reflect this change, as will subsequent parses of CSS StyleSheets that use @supports rules. Note, however, that any backdrop-filter-related information that was collected prior to this event may now be incorrect until the page is refreshed. _______________________________________________ dev-platform mailing list dev-platform@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform
