SVG fill color transparency / alpha?

Question

Is it possible to set a transparency or alpha level on SVG fill colours?

I\'ve tried adding two values to the fill tag (changing it from fill=\"#044B94\"

Answer 1

fill="#044B9466"

This is an RGBA color in hex notation inside the SVG, defined with hex values. This is valid, but not all programs can display it properly...

You can find the browser support for this syntax here: https://caniuse.com/#feat=css-rrggbbaa

As of August 2017: RGBA fill colors will display properly on Mozilla Firefox (54), Apple Safari (10.1) and Mac OS X Finder's "Quick View". However Google Chrome did not support this syntax until version 62 (was previously supported from version 54 with the Experimental Platform Features flag enabled).
