That's the impression I have with Opera, Firefox and Webkit. From what I can see, only IE9 seems to apply transformations correctly. The result is kind of acceptable in Opera and Firefox, but really bizarre in Webkit. > > You can check some results here: http://dotuscomus.com/pergola/download/pergola_1.3.6/ExamplesHTML/Patterns/patterns.html > > Domenico You should specify your question. I assume you mean the pixelation on the pattern tiles. IIRC all implementations try to avoid pixelated tiles. And normally it works quite well. I haven't checked why Opera, Firefox and WebKit fail on your example yet. But ideally patterns should never look pixelated, independent of the pattern transform, viewBox or other transformations. In realty all these implementations work with bitmaped tiles. Thats the way most (all?) graphic libraries work. Greetings Dirk
