Definition and Usage
The SVG animateTransform element is used to animate a transformation attribute on an element.
Example 1
This example creates a text that will move along a motion path. The text will
also rotate and scale.
Copy the following code into Notepad and save
the file as "animatemotion_1.svg". Place the file in your Web directory:
<?xml version="1.0" standalone="no"?>
<!DOCTYPE svg PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD SVG 1.1//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/1.1/DTD/svg11.dtd">
<svg width="100%" height="100%" version="1.1"
xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
<g transform="translate(100,100)">
<text id="TextElement" x="0" y="0"
style="font-family:Verdana;font-size:24;
visibility:hidden"> It's SVG!
<set attributeName="visibility" attributeType="CSS"
to="visible" begin="1s" dur="5s" fill="freeze"/>
<animateMotion path="M 0 0 L 100 100" begin="1s"
dur="5s" fill="freeze"/>
<animateTransform attributeName="transform"
attributeType="XML" type="rotate" from="-30" to="0"
begin="1s" dur="5s" fill="freeze"/>
<animateTransform attributeName="transform"

Example 2
This example creates a text that will move along a motion path. The text will
also rotate, scale and change color. We have also added a rectangle that will
"grow" and change color in the background.
Copy the following code into Notepad and save
the file as "animatemotion_2.svg". Place the file in your Web directory:
<?xml version="1.0" standalone="no"?>
<!DOCTYPE svg PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD SVG 1.1//EN"
