SVG <animateTransform> Element (original) (raw)

Last Updated : 31 Mar, 2022

SVG stands for Scalable Vector Graphics. It defines vector-based graphics and animation like in HTML Canvas.

The animateTransform element animates a transformation attribute on its target element, thereby allowing animations to control translation, scaling, rotation, and/or skewing.

Syntax:

Attribute:

from: Initial value of the attribute that will be modified during the animation.
to: Final value of the attribute that will be modified during the animation.
type: It defines the type of transformation, whose values change over time.
dur: Duration of the animation.
repeatCount: The number of times an animation will take place.
repeatDur: The total duration for repeating an animation.
attributeName: The name of the CSS property that is going to be animated.

Example:

HTML `

    <polygon points="60,30 90,90 30,90">
        <animateTransform attributeName="transform"
            attributeType="XML" type="rotate" 
            from="0 60 70" to="360 60 70"
            dur="10s" repeatCount="indefinite" />
    </polygon>
</svg>
