paint-order
The paint-order
attribute specifies the order that the fill, stroke, and markers of a given shape or text element are painted.
Note: As a presentation attribute, paint-order
can be used as a CSS property.
You can use this attribute with the following SVG elements:
Usage notes
Value |
normal | [ fill || stroke ||
markers ]
|
---|---|
Default value | normal |
Animatable | discrete |
- normal
-
This value indicates that the fill will be painted first, then the stroke, and finally the markers.
- [ fill || stroke || markers ]
-
The order of these three keywords indicates the order in which the painting happens, from left to right. If any of the three painting components is omitted, they will be painted in their default order after the specified components. For example, using
stroke
is equivalent tostroke fill markers
.
