SVG by Attribute

Last Updated : 31 Mar, 2022

The by attribute specifies a relative offset value for an attribute that will be modified during an animation.

Syntax:

by="numbers"

Attribute Values:

  • integers: Integer at which we want to set the by attribute.

We will use the by attribute for adjusting the size of the shape.
