<set>
Baseline Widely available
This feature is well established and works across many devices and browser versions. It’s been available across browsers since January 2020.
The SVG <set>
element provides a simple means of just setting the value of an attribute for a specified duration.
It supports all attribute types, including those that cannot reasonably be interpolated, such as string and boolean values. For attributes that can be reasonably be interpolated, the <animate>
is usually preferred.
Note:
The <set>
element is non-additive. The additive
and accumulate
attributes are not allowed, and will be ignored if specified.
Example
<svg viewBox="0 0 10 10" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
<style>
rect {
cursor: pointer;
}
.round {
rx: 5px;
fill: green;
}
</style>
<rect id="me" width="10" height="10">
<set attributeName="class" to="round" begin="me.click" dur="2s" />
</rect>
</svg>
