attribute specifies whether or not an animation can restart.
You can use this attribute with the following SVG elements:
Example
<svg viewBox="0 0 220 200" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"> <rect y="30" width="100" height="100"> <animate attributeType="XML" attributeName="y" from="30" to="100" dur="5s" repeatCount="1" restart="always" /> </rect> <rect x="120" y="30" width="100" height="100"> <animate attributeType="XML" attributeName="y" from="30" to="100" dur="5s" repeatCount="1" restart="whenNotActive"/> </rect> <a id="restart"><text y="20">Restart animation</text></a> </svg>
document.getElementById("restart").addEventListener("click", evt => { document.querySelectorAll("animate").forEach(element => { element.beginElement(); }); });
