Issue with transition of filters (CSS)


The transition & filter works fine (the starting colour is white and the ending colour is blueish purple), however, the transition of filter makes it so that it goes through unwanted colours like pink.

My CSS Code

#discord-logo {
  filter: brightness(0) saturate(100%) invert(100%) sepia(1%) saturate(2%) hue-rotate(324deg) brightness(106%) contrast(101%);
  width: 40px;
  height: 100%;
  display: flex;
  align-items: center;
  transition: filter 0.2s linear;
}

#discord-logo:hover {
  filter: brightness(0) saturate(100%) invert(35%) sepia(88%) saturate(2498%) hue-rotate(224deg) brightness(96%) contrast(90%);
}

My HTML Code

<object id="discord-logo" type="image/svg+xml" data="../assets/discord.svg">
     Discord Logo
</object>

I was thinking maybe an opacity transition, where the purple coloured svg is under the white one, thus when I transition the opacity of the top to 0, the purple can be seen

Is there a better way to make the transition happen without producing unwanted colours?


Solution

  • Not completely sure what you're trying to do, I think you're trying to to transistion from a full white logo to the purple one

    You have quite a long list of filters, many effecting the colour.
    To make the image white, you could blow up the brightness a lot.
    IE: filter: brightness(3);
    To reintroduce the original colour, you can tone down the brightness in the transition.
    IE: filter: brightness(1);
    All additional filters, saturate(100%) ... hue-rotate(324deg), I doubt you actually need these.

    #discord-logo {
      filter: brightness(3);
      width: 40px;
      height: 100%;
      display: flex;
      align-items: center;
      transition: filter 0.2s linear;
    }
    
    #discord-logo:hover {
      filter: brightness(1);
    }
    
    #container {
      border: 1px dashed black;
      display: inline-block;
      background-color: grey;
    }
    hover here:
