The <ellipse>
SVG element is an SVG basic shape, used to create ellipses based on a center coordinate, and both their x and y radius.
Note: Ellipses are unable to specify the exact orientation of the ellipse (if, for example, you wanted to draw an ellipse tilted at a 45 degree angle), but it can be rotated by using the transform
attribute.
cx
The x position of the center of the ellipse. Value type: <length> | <percentage>; Default value: 0
; Animatable: yes
cy
The y position of the center of the ellipse. Value type: <length> | <percentage>; Default value: 0
; Animatable: yes
rx
The radius of the ellipse on the x axis. Value type: auto
| <length> | <percentage>; Default value: auto
; Animatable: yes
ry
The radius of the ellipse on the y axis. Value type: auto
| <length> | <percentage>; Default value: auto
; Animatable: yes
pathLength
This attribute lets specify the total length for the path, in user units. Value type: <number>; Default value: none; Animatable: yes
Note: Starting with SVG2 cx
, cy
, rx
and ry
are Geometry Properties, meaning those attributes can also be used as CSS properties for that element.
