SVGAnimationElement
The SVGAnimationElement
interface is the base interface for all of the animation element interfaces: SVGAnimateElement
, SVGSetElement
, SVGAnimateColorElement
, SVGAnimateMotionElement
and SVGAnimateTransformElement
.
Instance properties
This interface also inherits properties from its parent, SVGElement
.
SVGAnimationElement.requiredExtensions
Read only-
An
SVGStringList
reflecting therequiredExtensions
attribute of the given element. SVGAnimationElement.systemLanguage
Read only-
An
SVGStringList
reflecting thesystemLanguage
attribute of the given element. SVGAnimationElement.targetElement
Read only-
An
SVGElement
representing the element which is being animated. If no target element is being animated (for example, because thehref
specifies an unknown element) the value returned isnull
.
Instance methods
This interface also inherits methods from its parent, SVGElement
.
SVGAnimationElement.getStartTime()
-
Returns a float representing the begin time, in seconds, for this animation element's current interval, if it exists, regardless of whether the interval has begun yet. If there is no current interval, then a
DOMException
with codeINVALID_STATE_ERR
is thrown. SVGAnimationElement.getCurrentTime()
-
Returns a float representing the current time in seconds relative to time zero for the given time container.
SVGAnimationElement.getSimpleDuration()
-
Returns a float representing the number of seconds for the simple duration for this animation. If the simple duration is undefined (e.g., the end time is indefinite), then a
DOMException
with codeNOT_SUPPORTED_ERR
is raised. SVGAnimationElement.beginElement()
-
Creates a begin instance time for the current time. The new instance time is added to the begin instance times list. The behavior of this method is equivalent to
beginElementAt(0)
. SVGAnimationElement.beginElementAt()
-
Creates a begin instance time for the current time plus the specified offset. The new instance time is added to the begin instance times list.
SVGAnimationElement.endElement()
-
Creates an end instance time for the current time. The new instance time is added to the end instance times list. The behavior of this method is equivalent to
endElementAt(0)
. SVGAnimationElement.endElementAt()
-
Creates an end instance time for the current time plus the specified offset. The new instance time is added to the end instance times list.
Events
Listen to these events using addEventListener()
or by assigning an event listener to the on...
handler property of this interface.
beginEvent
-
Fired when the element local timeline begins to play.
endEvent
-
Fired when at the active end of the animation is reached.
repeatEvent
-
Fired when the element's local timeline repeats. It will be fired each time the element repeats, after the first iteration.
