<circle>

The <circle> SVG element is an SVG basic shape, used to draw circles based on a center point and a radius.

Example

<svg viewBox="0 0 100 100" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
  <circle cx="50" cy="50" r="50" />
</svg>

Attributes

cx: The x-axis coordinate of the center of the circle. Value type: <length>|<percentage> ; Default value: 0; Animatable: yes
cy: The y-axis coordinate of the center of the circle. Value type: <length>|<percentage> ; Default value: 0; Animatable: yes
r: The radius of the circle. A value lower or equal to zero disables rendering of the circle. Value type: <length>|<percentage> ; Default value: 0; Animatable: yes
pathLength: The total length for the circle's circumference, in user units. Value type: <number> ; Default value: none; Animatable: yes

Note: Starting with SVG2, cx, cy, and r are Geometry Properties, meaning those attributes can also be used as CSS properties for that element.
