Hi everyone.
I try to do animation for svg elements. Here's what I did - jsfiddle
The problem is that svg photos can be different (as small as 100-500 lines of code, or large as thousands of lines). For what we have now, we need to have svg directly in the DOM. And if the svg file consists of several thousand lines of code, the animation will load the system and will not work smoothly (jsfiddle)
So I think we need svg, turn it into canvas and then work with it. If they were ordinary primitive figures (circle, triangle, square) and they would meet once on the page, I could draw them in canvas. But the problem is that these can be different forms of drawing. I thought it would be great if we could svg load a certain mask and display circles in it, which would be animated following mouse over. Such a mask could be made as a single path(mask). However, frankly speaking, I don't know how to do this or if it's possible to do it. I would be very grateful for any help and examples. Thank you.
