Formal Syntax

stroke-dasharray =
none
|
[
[
<length-percentage>
| <number>
]+
#
]
<length-percentage> =
<length>
| <percentage>

Explanation

  • none: Means the stroke is drawn without dashes. This is the default value.
  • <length-percentage>: Can be either a <length> or a <percentage>:
    • <length>: Uses units like px, em, rem, etc.
    • <percentage>: Uses percentages of the SVG viewport’s diagonal.
  • <number>: Represents a number of SVG units. The size is defined by the current unit space in the SVG.
  • +: Means the preceding value can appear one or more times.
  • #: Means the preceding values are repeated, separated by commas.

Examples

  • stroke-dasharray: none;
    • No dashes, just a solid stroke.
  • stroke-dasharray: 2px, 5px;
    • Creates a pattern with dashes of 2px and gaps of 5px.
  • stroke-dasharray: 20%, 50%;
    • Uses percentages to define the pattern relative to the SVG viewport.
  • stroke-dasharray: 2, 5;
    • Uses unitless numbers to define the pattern.
  • stroke-dasharray: 2, 5, 3;
    • Creates a pattern with dashes of 2 units, gaps of 5 units, and dashes of 3 units. The pattern repeats if necessary.
  • stroke-dasharray: 2, 5, 3, 2, 5, 3;
    • Explicitly repeats the pattern to ensure an even number of values.
