Re: <animate> <animateColor>

Hi Hulf, I thought I replied earlier, but my reply appears to have gone astray. I tale your point that adding the same 'ID' to both <use> and its child <animate> seems redundant. But it's required. Without it, the animate fails. I'm not sure we've mentioned that the <use> and the <animate> must BOTH...

Re: sleep()

Hi, Hulf, I don't mind posting the code. But the Forum Administrators might object. The JS is about 270 lines. The final function in the JS shows the sequence of functions. The final one: drawHex() is the key function. There's no CSS. The HTML is only 14 lines. <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DT...

Re: sleep()

Hi hufl2012, I see again that you replied to my previous thread about sleep(). I felt then that I couldn.t show you my code as it was very complicated. I was using javascript to build ' 'honeycomb' of a mosaic of dozens of hexagons. Each hexagon was placed precisely, and each being of a different co...

Re: <animate> <animateColor>

Hi, hufl2012,
I see you have added the same ID to both each <use> and the <animate>.
I added the ID only to each <animate>
I don't understand why your method works, but must admit it does work.
Thanks, again

Re: <animate> <animateColor>

Hi, hulf2012,
APOLOGIES.
I've just pasted your code, and tested it in Opera.
It works perfectly.
(Opera is my default browser for my SVG. I find it most reliable.)

I've now got to discover how your code differs from mine.
Thanks, and sincere apologies, again,

<animate> <animateColor>

I am trying to use <animate> or <animateColor> within a <use>. They're not working correctly. I'm displaying three hexagons. I want one to change red-to-green, the next green-to-blue, the third blue-to-red. They all change red-green-blue-red. <svg width="200px" height="200px" vie...

sleep()

Hi,
I'm trying to slow down a SVG build.
I'm using <use> in a javascript loop.
JS has no sleep() function.
Is there any way I can add 'dur="500ms"' to my <use>,
or can anyone suggest some other technique?
Thanks, in advance,
JJ

Re: linearGradients

Hi Tylerdurden, I note your point on using spreadsheets to generate your code. I often use it when creating similar lines of code. Didn't get round to using it this time. Probably because I normally use #xxx to define my colours, rather than rgb(). I'm not sure how Excel (or Calc) could cope with he...

I rarely use Chrome, use IE only to check it does something, and Safari, because it's available. I note you y...

Re: linearGradients

Hi, Lazur,
Both are stunning..
I cannot imagine how you developed that chunk of code. 18000 lines !
Even the second one, 256 steps you say. I note over 500 Stops.
But that said. They are stunning.
Thanks,

Re: linearGradients

Not a Reply, just a footnote: I suspect the problem lies at the join of two gradients. So, below the original spectrum, I've added another whibh bridges those joins. I've added 6 more <def>s <linearGradient id="mr" > <stop offset="0.0" style="stop-color: #ff0080;" /> <...

I've just started experimenting with linearGradients. I tried to display a spectrum of colours and am somewhat disappointed with the result. I expected a smooth transition but found it rather lumpy. Am I doing something wrong? <svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" version="1.1"...

Re: SVG with JS

I have now embedded 'svg.js' within 'test.html' to make it more comparable with 'test.svg'. They both hold virtually identical javascript. The only real difference is that the JS in the HTML needs to initiate SVG (function initSVG(). Both scripts contain an onload function init(), which starts thing...

I've embedded some SVG in HTML, using only JS to get initialise it. It works ONLY in Opera. I have two problems: (1) Why only in Opera? (2) How to dispense with the HTML, keeping only the JS which generates the SVG. Here's the HTML: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" ...
