What is the reason that glow effects does not support? #764

Is bodymovin unable to export JSON, or is it a performance problem for Lottie rendering? How do we plan on this case?

bodymovin commented 6 years ago

there is no direct translation for the glow effect in AE to a glow effect in svg. At least not one that supports all the properties. And yes, performance wise, all filters work pretty bad in svg

@bodymovin first of all, thanks for the great tool:) One question regarding glow effect specifically and other unsupported ones as well: is there any option to have all the properties (even unsupported ones) exported in the json file? Actually I'm using lottie on android and could give a try implementing some features that are not supported yet, but looks like they are not exported according to the schema here https://github.com/airbnb/lottie-web/tree/master/docs/json and the result file on latest (5.5.8) plugin.

I added an option on the bodymovin extension to export some unsupported properties. If you can share which glow you are thinking of trying, I can include it in that group of exported properties.

Sure, I'm trying to do some sort of neon alike illustration, so inner and outer glows are used here. Bevel and emboss might be helpful as well. https://helpx.adobe.com/after-effects/how-to/neon-glow-effect.html
