Stroke-dasharray not being applied-CodePudding

I am following a tutorial (a bit dated now) to create an SVG animation and got stuck with stroke-dasharray - I am defining it but not seeing any effect. I am using Codepen for this.

.container {
  background-color: black;
  width: 100%;
  height: 100vh;
  display: flex;
  align-items: center;
  justify-content: center;
}

.path-1 {
  stroke-dasharray: 4;
}

What I tried:

applying pixel value to stroke-dasharray
adding a stroke attribute against the tutorial (that did something but not what I want, i.e. dashed text)
checked that I am applying it to the , which seemed to resolve someone else's post on Stack Overflow
changed fill value to #fff in case the fill requires a hex value

CodePudding user response：

You need to set a stroke in order for stroke-dasharray to have an effect. stroke="red" for instance.

As the name suggests, it only applies to strokes, it has no effect on fill.

.container {
  background-color: black;
  width: 100%;
  height: 100vh;
  display: flex;
  align-items: center;
  justify-content: center;
}

.path-1 {
  stroke-dasharray: 4;
  stroke: red;
}
