Currently, I am attempting to utilize a wave SVG while also having a background image set for the body of the webpage. However, I am encountering an issue where I want the SVG to be filled with transparency so that the body background image shows through. Despite my attempts to set the fill to transparent using fill: transparent or fill-opacity: 0, the result is that all the wave shapes disappear. Is there a way to replace the color #000000 with a transparent value that allows the body background image to show through?
For reference, here is an example code snippet: https://jsfiddle.net/nLt2vu4k/
* {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
body {
background-image: url("https://wallpaperaccess.com/full/5131560.jpg");
}
header {
min-height: 20rem;
background-color: cyan;
position: relative;
}
.shape {
position: absolute;
bottom: 0;
left: 0;
width: 100%;
overflow: hidden;
line-height: 0;
transform: rotate(180deg);
}
.shape svg {
position: relative;
display: block;
width: calc(128% + 1.3px);
height: 163px;
}
.shape .shape-fill {
fill: #000000;
