What does the 'stroke-dasharray' property do in CSS?

0133

The stroke-dasharray property in CSS is used to create dashed lines in SVG graphics. It defines the pattern of dashes and gaps that make up the stroke of a shape.

How It Works

  • The property takes a list of values that specify the lengths of dashes and the lengths of gaps between them.
  • For example, stroke-dasharray: 5, 3; means:
    • A dash of 5 units long followed by a gap of 3 units.
    • This pattern repeats along the stroke.

Example

circle {
  stroke: black;
  stroke-width: 2;
  stroke-dasharray: 5, 3; /* Creates a dashed effect */
}

In this example, the circle will have a dashed outline where each dash is 5 units long and each gap is 3 units long.
