Yes, this is possible, I think. You'll want to look at 1. the use of the a (arc) subcommand of <path> , (see for example, http://srufaculty.sru.edu/david.dailey/svg/newstuff/arcs.svg)
2. SMIL animation of a <path> (for example. http://srufaculty.sru.edu/david.dailey/svg/newstuff/path10.svg ) 3. Time (for example http://srufaculty.sru.edu/david.dailey/svg/ballclock.svg ) The examples in 2 and 3 use SMIL, though clearly they could be done with script instead. Hope this helps DD From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of tim.becker80 Sent: Friday, December 12, 2008 6:00 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [svg-developers] SMIL temporal legend Greetings to all, I'm trying to build what, in animated cartography, we call a cyclic temporal legend. In more technical terms we could call it an "animated angular fill". The idea is to have something looking like a clock but with in addition, the part of time that has already been elapsed to get filled by a color. In that way, time that represents the past in the animation is one color and time that represents the futur is another color. The whole cycle of the "clock" most often represents one day, one week or one year according to the real-world cyclic phenomena under study... I'm wondering whether it's possible to build such a thing in SMIL or whether scripting is needed. For my purpose, it would be quite convenient to have it work in SMIL... Kind regards, Tim.
