I am new to Inkscape, I need to create a simple linear gradient on a picture I obtained from an automatic vector tracing tool. I'm using Inkscape 1.2.2 (b0a8486541, 2022-12-01) on Windows 10. As you can see from the screenshot, the gradient is set from blue to white, but it goes from blue to black for some reason.
I noticed also that everything seems to be inverted for some reason. When brightness or Alpha goes down, gradient starts to look white on canvas as it probably should
Did you forget about your little filter experiment? When you play with fire....
Your file contains 38 filter definitions, 8 of which are active. Each tongue of flame has a colour-invert filter applied. Select all the individual shapes then [Filters > Remove Filters]. You can follow this with [File > Clean Up Document] to delete all unused filter definitions.

Other than the colour problem, your screenshot looks normal. Please upload the svg file for us to examine.

Mystery solved ! Good job Paddy_CAD 😎
The problem was quite unusual ... I didn't thought about that.
Note that, as often, status bar gives hints on what's going wrong...
You're amazing, thanks. I didn't even know about filters, I had used an automated vector tracing tool, who knows why it set all those weird filters...
