SVG dashed line animation (draw and flow together) - animation

I have to make svg animation with dashed line.
I want to draw a line along with the flow.
Or draw line first and if drawing is finish, start flow.
But I can only implement separately.
How can I animate it together?
Help please..
This is my code.
https://codepen.io/hyhong/pen/KKBpvKQ
.item1 .dashed {
stroke-dasharray: 10 7;
}
.item1 .path {
animation: draw 1.5s alternate linear forwards;
}
#keyframes draw {
from {
stroke-dashoffset: 364;
}
to {
stroke-dashoffset: 0;
}
}
.item2 .path {
stroke-dasharray: 10;
stroke-dashoffset: 100;
animation: flow 3s linear infinite;
}
#keyframes flow {
100% {
stroke-dashoffset: 0;
}
}

I don't get your question 100%. but SVG SMIL Animation can be used in a situation where you need to time the starting (and ending) of different animations using <animate>. So, here are three examples where I animate stroke-dashoffset.
In the first the animations are independent, the green just starts 2 seconds after the red. In the second example the green starts when the red ends. You can see that the begin attribute refer to the the id of the red. The same goes for the third example.
<p>Green begin 2s after red:</p>
<svg viewBox="0 0 250 10">
<path d="M 20 5 h 100" stroke="red" stroke-width="10"
stroke-dasharray="100" stroke-dashoffset="100" pathLenth="100">
<animate attributeName="stroke-dashoffset"
values="100;-100" dur="4s" fill="freeze"
repeatCount="1" />
</path>
<path d="M 120 5 h 100" stroke="green" stroke-width="10"
stroke-dasharray="100" stroke-dashoffset="100" pathLenth="100">
<animate attributeName="stroke-dashoffset"
values="100;0" dur="2s" fill="freeze"
repeatCount="1" begin="2s" />
</path>
</svg>
<p>Green begin when red ends:</p>
<svg viewBox="0 0 250 10">
<path d="M 20 5 h 100" stroke="red" stroke-width="10"
stroke-dasharray="100" stroke-dashoffset="100" pathLenth="100">
<animate id="a1" attributeName="stroke-dashoffset"
values="100;-100" dur="4s" fill="freeze"
repeatCount="1" />
</path>
<path d="M 120 5 h 100" stroke="green" stroke-width="10"
stroke-dasharray="100" stroke-dashoffset="100" pathLenth="100">
<animate attributeName="stroke-dashoffset"
values="100;0" dur="2s" fill="freeze"
repeatCount="1" begin="a1.end" />
</path>
</svg>
<p>Green begin 1s after red begin:</p>
<svg viewBox="0 0 250 10">
<path d="M 20 5 h 100" stroke="red" stroke-width="10"
stroke-dasharray="100" stroke-dashoffset="100" pathLenth="100">
<animate id="a2" attributeName="stroke-dashoffset"
values="100;-100" dur="4s" fill="freeze"
repeatCount="1" />
</path>
<path d="M 120 5 h 100" stroke="green" stroke-width="10"
stroke-dasharray="100" stroke-dashoffset="100" pathLenth="100">
<animate attributeName="stroke-dashoffset"
values="100;0" dur="2s" fill="freeze"
repeatCount="1" begin="a2.begin+1s" />
</path>
</svg>

You can use the values from the css in the SVG "animate" property. The CSS animation is looping the "stroke-dashoffset" values from 100 to 0. On the other hand it overrides the stroke-dasharray="10 7" to stroke-dasharray="10" without reason. So you can use the original "10 7" (10 pixel dash, 7 pixel gap) design, if you like to.
<svg width="250" height="250">
<path
d="M 30 10 L 220 150 L 160 200 L 200 230"
stroke-miterlimit="10"
fill="none"
stroke="#3835B9"
stroke-width="5"
stroke-dasharray="10"
stroke-dashoffset="1">
<animate
attributeName="stroke-dashoffset"
values="100;0"
dur="3s"
calcMode="linear"
repeatCount="indefinite" />
</path>
</svg>

What am I doing wrong trying to rotate some SVG through an animateTransform tag with "spline" calcmode?

I'm trying to animate a triangle so that its rotation accelerates (and later comes to a stop after a full rotation) and I am trying to use the animateTransform SVG tag, with the calcmode attribute set to "spline".. I can easily get the triangle to rotate with a continuous motion, but it's not the smooth acceleration I'm looking for.
Here is the code I'm using - when viewing this in Firefox it shows no animation at all :
<svg xml:lang="fr" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">

/>
</g>
</svg>
What am I doing wrong? Should I use CSS animations instead? Any kind of non-continuous rotation would be a win.
I tried various value combinations for the keyTimes / keySplines attributes, but the only result I got was a continuous rotation - for example, with
keyTimes="0; 1"
keySplines="0.5 0 0.5 1"
The SVG specification says:
For animations specified with a ‘values’ list, the ‘keyTimes’ attribute if specified must have exactly as many values as there are in the ‘values’ attribute. For from/to/by animations, the ‘keyTimes’ attribute if specified must have two values.
So we either need to reduce the number of keyTimes values or move to using values and then have a matching number of values.
I've set some example values below and the shape now rotates at various speeds.
html, body {
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}
svg {
width: 100%;
height: 200%;
transform: translate(-100px, -130px);

If you load your file into a vector editor, we will see that the shapes are outside the SVG canvas.
Because of this, you were forced to use transform commands to bring the forms back to the custom viewport.
Practical advice
It is necessary to draw in a vector editor so that the shapes do not go beyond the boundaries of the SVG canvas.
After redrawing in a vector editor and cleaning the file:
To get a segment, use stroke-dasharray="251,1004",
where 251 -
dash, 1004 - gap
To animate the rotation, it was necessary, in addition to the angle,
to additionally specify the coordinates of the rotation center
<animateTransform attributeName="transform" attributeType="XML" type="rotate"
from="0,266,278" to="360,266,278" dur="4s" repeatCount="indefinite"/>

The experimental <sprite-meister> Web Component can generate the CSS for you
After cleaning up your SVG: no translates, no self-closing tags
You are left with the first frame of your animation
this is not SVG, but a String Template Literal you can program
Sprite-Meister generates the other steps=48 frames for you
the circlepath function calculates an x,y position for every frame
each <circle cx="${v1.x}" cy="${v1.y}" doesn't rotate the circle;
it draws the circle at different positions in each frame
and animates the generated SVG sprite-sheet with CSS
<script src="//sprite-meister.github.io/element.js"></script>
<script>console.log=()=>{/*don't bloat SO snippet console*/}</script>
<sprite-meister duration="5s" w="542" h="542" width="180px" steps="48">
${ setv1( circlepath({ radius:200 }) , "yellow circle position" )}
<text y="10%" font-size="50px">frame: ${framenr} </text>

You need a decent amount of SVG knowlegde, and learn (at least the basics) of SVG SMIL animations first, so you understand the difference with sprite-sheet animations

Specific way to animate Circle Border with SVG?

I have a specific animation I want with an SVG circle. I found the code below from this question (Animated semicircles in logo with SVG). It gets me half of the way there, but i can't figure out how to make it the rest of the way there. I want the circle to start unfolding so to speak from the left side to the right side. This code starts the animation correctly, but I need it to keep going until there is no more circle. That is, the gray lines should keep disappearing as they are now, with the top disappearing at the same rate as the bottom. How do I do this?
<svg height="200" width="200" viewBox="0 0 144 144">
<circle cx="72" cy="72" r="49"
stroke-width="6" stroke="#838588" fill="none">
<animate id="a" attributeName="stroke-dasharray" values="154 0;77 154;" dur="1s" repeatCount="indefinite"/>
</circle>
</svg>
That is, the gray lines should keep disappearing as they are now,
with the top disappearing at the same rate as the bottom. How do I do
this?
To do this, you must change the parameters of the stroke-dasharray attribute.
With a radius of a circle r = 49, the total circumference is 308
To make a symmetrical disappearance of a stroke with two lines from one point, you need to use two groups of parameters stroke-dasharray
values="154, 0 154, 0; 0, 308, 0, 0" where
154 - dash parameter of the first group stroke-dasharray
0 - gap parameter of the first group stroke-dasharray
As a result, the circle will be filled with a cavity at the first moment of the animation.
0, 308, 0, 0 - at this value, the length of the gap is maximum and the border of the circle becomes invisible
<svg height="200" width="200" viewBox="0 0 144 144">
<circle cx="72" cy="72" r="49"
stroke-width="6" stroke="#838588" fill="none">
<animate id="a" attributeName="stroke-dasharray" values="154, 0 154, 0; 0, 308, 0, 0" dur="2s" repeatCount="indefinite"/>
</circle>

Update
#User9375050's comment:
is there a way to avoid having that small remnant (slither of a line)
on the right side before it is filled?
The streak does not actually remain. This visual effect is due to the continuous repetition of the animation. To remove this illusion, you need to add a pause at the end of the animation
Example 1 with a pause at the end of the animation
begin="0s;an.end+1s" where
First start of animation -0s;
an.end+1s - restarting the animation after a pause of 1 second after the end of the first animation
<svg height="200" width="200" viewBox="0 0 144 144">
<circle cx="72" cy="72" r="49"
stroke-width="6" stroke="#838588" fill="none">
<animate id="an"
attributeName="stroke-dasharray"
values="
154, 0 154, 0;
0, 308, 0, 0"
dur="2s"
begin="0s;an.end+1s"
repeatCount="1"
fill="freeze"/>
</circle>
</svg>
Example 2 with a pause
<svg height="200" width="200" viewBox="0 0 144 144">
<circle cx="72" cy="72" r="49" stroke-dashoffset="154"
stroke-width="6" stroke="#838588" fill="none">
<animate id="an"
attributeName="stroke-dasharray"
values="0, 154 0, 154; 0, 0, 308, 0"
begin="0s;an.end+1s"
dur="2s"
repeatCount="1"
fill="feeze"/>

Spinning SVG group

I have a sag group.
And I'm trying to rotate them.
I'm reciving a rotate effect like earth :)
But I want it to spin in one place.
What should be the right way to do it?
Thanks!

SVG set attributeName="visibility" works first time, but not after that

In the following, the text (CLICK ME) is supposed to reappear .5 seconds after the morphMe animation ends. (See the last line of code other than closing tags)
It works fine, making the text appear the first time the animation ends. But it does not ever work after that. I can't figure why it works only once;

You've got repeatCount="2" so change that to repeatCount="indefinite" and that should ensure your animation doesn't stop.
See the docs here; https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/SVG/Attribute/repeatCount
There seem to be two problems.
A semicolon has been mistyped as a colon in the animation
Fractional time offsets in SMIL must begin with a leading 0 (although Chrome does not enforce this)
I'd also probably just make the text and shape pointer-events: none since you don't want to manage clicks on them and just process clicks on the rect. I've also made that change below.
After that everything seems to work (at least on Firefox where I'm testing it).
