The stroke-dasharray
attribute is a presentation attribute defining the pattern of dashes and gaps used to paint the outline of the shape;
Note: As a presentation attribute, stroke-dasharray
can be used as a CSS property.
You can use this attribute with the following SVG elements:
Example
<svg viewBox="0 0 30 10" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
<!-- No dashes nor gaps -->
<line x1="0" y1="1" x2="30" y2="1" stroke="black" />
<!-- Dashes and gaps of the same size -->
<line x1="0" y1="3" x2="30" y2="3" stroke="black"
stroke-dasharray="4" />
<!-- Dashes and gaps of different sizes -->
<line x1="0" y1="5" x2="30" y2="5" stroke="black"
stroke-dasharray="4 1" />
<!-- Dashes and gaps of various sizes with an odd number of values -->
<line x1="0" y1="7" x2="30" y2="7" stroke="black"
stroke-dasharray="4 1 2" />
<!-- Dashes and gaps of various sizes with an even number of values -->
<line x1="0" y1="9" x2="30" y2="9" stroke="black"
stroke-dasharray="4 1 2 3" />
</svg>
