SVG spin loading icon freezes while loading data - javascript

This question is quite similar to this SO post but I'm using an svg animated spinner defined in a separate file where all my svg icons are stored. The spinner works fine when I display it by using $("#spinner").show(). However, when I try to display the spinner during loading of data (lots of data), it freezes. It restarts towards the end of loading but my code hides it after as it should. Kinda defeats the purpose of showing the loading spinner if it doesn't spin.
I created a demo below with a time out to simulate data processing. You can adjust the timeout time and the number of records if your machine is more powerful.
I know there's a css alternative in the mentioned SO post but I would like to try keeping an svg implementation.
Any input is appreciated. Thanks!
var records = [];
function LoadData() {
for (var i = 0; i < 100000; i++) {
setTimeout(records.push("Record" + i), 100000);
}
$("button").html("Done");
}

If you use Css animations insted it works without a problem for me.
The only thing that I noticed: the circle is a bit off center. You can fix this with css transform origin or fix the svg.
var records = [];
function LoadData() {
for (var i = 0; i < 100000; i++) {
setTimeout(records.push("Record" + i), 100000);
}
$("button").html("Done");

How can I make this SVG adapt to viewport size without scaling?

I finally dared to start on a small, first project I was thinking about for a while after taking a few courses on full-stack developement and a little bit of design.
This small sketch represents how I would like my navigation to look.
The problem I'm facing is that I don't know how I would make the SVG Path that underlines the nav scale like I want it to (The little ECG thingy should move without being squished while the lines next to it get smaller, check the picture to see what I mean).
This is the SVG Code:
<svg width="1440px" height="63px" viewBox="0 0 1440 63" version="1.1" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">

Do you guys have any idea on how to approach this?
As I commented above you can keep your element with a fixed big width and center it within the container and make it overflowing:
.container {
display: flex;
justify-content: center;
overflow: hidden;
}
svg {
width: 1440px;
height: 63px;
}
<div class="container">

SVG filter won't disappear on hover using transitions

I am currently working on some new stuff and I have been introduced to the world of SVG objects. They are nice. I have a button that I have built and I put a filter on it. The designer I'm working with would like the filter (a drop shadow) to go from opacity 1 to 0 on hover, and return to 1 off hover.
I have tried just normal transitions on the filter, and I can get the filter to disappear but the transition is far from smooth.
Here's my code:
HTML
<svg version="1.1" id="Layer_1" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" x="0px" y="0px" viewBox="0 0 216 216" style="enable-background:new 0 0 216 216;" xml:space="preserve">
<filter id="fade" height="150%" width='150%'>
<feMerge>
<feMergeNode/>
<!-- this contains the offset blurred image -->
<feMergeNode in="SourceGraphic" />
<!-- this contains the element that the filter is applied to -->
</feMerge>
</filter>
<filter id="dropshadow" height="150%" width='150%'>
<feGaussianBlur in="SourceAlpha" stdDeviation="25" />
<!-- stdDeviation is how much to blur -->
<feOffset dx="0" dy="15vh" result="offsetblur" />
<!-- how much to offset -->
<feComponentTransfer>
<feFuncA type="linear" slope="0.4" />
</feComponentTransfer>
<feMerge>
<feMergeNode/>
<!-- this contains the offset blurred image -->
<feMergeNode in="SourceGraphic" />
<!-- this contains the element that the filter is applied to -->
</feMerge>
</filter>
<a href='' id='playvideo_button'>
<g>
<path class="st0" d="M108,24c-46.4,0-84,37.6-84,84s37.6,84,84,84s84-37.6,84-84S154.4,24,108,24z" />
<polygon class="st1" points="92,140 92,76 140,108" />
</g>
</a>
</svg>
CSS
svg {
width: 30vw;
height: 30vh;
cursor: pointer;
}
svg .st0 {
fill: #4982CF;
transition: filter.6s ease-out;
filter: url(#dropshadow);
}
svg .st1 {
fill: #ffffff;
}
svg:hover .st0{
filter: url(#fade);
}
Here is my Fiddle that I have been playing around with.
Edits
I have created a second filter, which is just a transparent overlay, but that has also failed and does the same not smooth effect. I'm pretty much at a loss here.
Using transitions on the filter is not the way to do this. Here is a more elegant way. There are a bunch of things here you should note:
You need to size both the svg and the filter regions properly to make sure the shadow isn't cut off
You can't transition filters
Support for CSS units isn't reliably supported inside an SVG filter, stick to either objectBoundingBox (%) or userSpaceOnUse (viewbox) units
Look at how I constructed the filter to allow it to be drawn on top of the shape (to capture hover) without obscuring it. That's the "operator="out" part of the filter.
Enclose your filter in a defs element. Some browsers require this.
DON'T use Illustrator exports as boilerplates. They're really not well constructed SVG.
In general, the worst way to learn SVG is by trying to decode or tweak Illustrator export code. It's just an unmitigated craptastic disaster.
svg {
width: 30vw;
height: 30vh;
cursor: pointer;
}
svg .st0 {
fill: #4982CF;
}
svg .st1 {
fill: #ffffff;
}
#usedshadow {
opacity: 1;
transition: opacity 0.6s;
}
#usedshadow:hover {
opacity: 0;
transition: opacity 0.6s;
}

You can achieve this effect using a path with a gaussian blur to simulate the shadow instead of using a filter, the result i got is this:
In this way you can handle the "drop shadow" directly, then with just simple CSS you can make the opacity transition.
svg #shadow{
transition: all 0.65s;
opacity:1;
}
svg:hover #shadow{
opacity:0;
}

Can't quite figure out why this isn't working, not sure if it's my js or the way my svg is setup please help :]
Here's the js I copied http://codepen.io/joshy/pen/cojbD
Define an animation path, which could be a circle , ellipse or Bezier curve.
Enclose the path definition between animateMotion tags ,one pair within each moving object definition, as follows:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<svg width="120" height="120" viewBox="0 0 120 120"
xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" version="1.1"
xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" >
<!-- Draw the outline of the motion path in grey, along
with 2 small circles at key points -->
<path d="M10,110 A120,120 -45 0,1 110 10 A120,120 -45 0,1 10,110"
stroke="lightgrey" stroke-width="2"
fill="none" id="theMotionPath"/>
<circle cx="10" cy="110" r="3" fill="lightgrey" />
<circle cx="110" cy="10" r="3" fill="lightgrey" />
<!-- Here is a red circle which will be moved along the motion path. -->
<circle cx="" cy="" r="5" fill="red">
<!-- Define the motion path animation -->
<animateMotion dur="6s" repeatCount="indefinite">
<mpath xlink:href="#theMotionPath"/>
</animateMotion>
</circle>
No javascript or jQuery required !

How to convert SVG CSS animation to pure JS code

I would like to convert an svg path animation, to a pure javascript one.
SVG code:
<svg version="1.1" id="Layer_1" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" x="0px" y="0px" width="340px" height="333px" viewBox="0 0 340 333" enable-background="new 0 0 340 333" xml:space="preserve">
<path class="path" fill="#FFFFFF" stroke="#000000" stroke-width="4" stroke-miterlimit="10" d="M66.039,133.545c0,0-21-57,18-67s49-4,65,8

</svg>
CSS code:
.path {
stroke-dasharray: 10 10; /* 10px fill, 10px gap */
-webkit-animation: dash 10s linear normal infinite;
}
#-webkit-keyframes dash {
from {
stroke-dashoffset: 1000;
}
to {
stroke-dashoffset: 0;
}
}
Here is the Fiddle
I'm not sure why you need pure javascript, also this answer may not fit your needs as it actually does create inline CSS. But here it is, mostly taken from : https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/SVG/Attribute/stroke-dashoffset
function dashOffset() {
var path = document.querySelector('.path');
var length = "1000";
// Clear any previous transition
path.style.transition = path.style.WebkitTransition = 'none';

There is also the requestAnimationFrame way :
function anim(){
var path = document.querySelector('.path');
path.style.strokeDasharray = "10 10";
path.style.strokeDashoffset--;
requestAnimationFrame(anim);
}
requestAnimationFrame(anim);
function anim(){
var path = document.querySelector('.path');
path.style.strokeDasharray = "10 10";
path.style.strokeDashoffset--;
requestAnimationFrame(anim);
}
requestAnimationFrame(anim);

Note that you may be able to reproduce it with the pure SVG animateMotion element.
There are a few javascript SVG libraries you could look into. I'm partial to Raphael (www.raphaeljs.com).
It would be something like this:
var paper = Raphael('canvas', 600, 600);
paper.path("M66.039,133.545c0,0-21-57,18-67s49-4,65,8s30,41,53,27s66,4,58,32s- 5,44,18,57s22,46,0,45s-54-40-68-16s-40,88-83,48s11-61-11-80s-79-7-70-41C46.039,146.545,53.039,128.545,66.039,133.545z")
.attr({fill:"#FFFFFF", stroke: "#000000", "stroke-width": "4", "stroke-miterlimit": "10"})
fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/xLekbar4/
(Note: I added a div to the html as a container for the raphael "canvas", and changed the css to apply to 'path' elements, instead of elements with class '.path')
I strongly recommend you give a try to the Raphael.js library.
Using it you could easily reproduce what you want.
Additionally there's this very useful tool to convert your SVG file into Raphael.js reusable code : http://www.readysetraphael.com/
So your SVG file will become :
var rsr = Raphael('rsr', '340', '333');
var path_a = rsr.path("M66.039,133.545c0,0-21-57,18-67s49-4,65,8s30,41,53,27s66,4,58,32s-5,44,18,57s22,46,0,45s-54-40-68-16s-40,88-83,48s11-61-11-80s-79-7-70-41C46.039,146.545,53.039,128.545,66.039,133.545z");
path_a.attr({
class: 'path',
fill: '#FFFFFF',
stroke: '#000000',
"stroke-width": '4',
"stroke-miterlimit": '10',
'stroke-opacity': '1'
}).data('id', 'path_a');
var rsrGroups = [];
Then you just have to add a <div id="rsr"></div> to your document and also replace the CSS selector .path to path.

Cross Browser Circle Progress Bar

I'm attempting to make a Circle progress bar much like seen here.
This jQuery plugin does exactly what I want to be able to accomplish with the problem being that it isn't cross-browser as velocity.js is.
I have looked at other sources such as:
example #1
example #2
example #3
$("div").velocity(
{
rotateZ: 360
},
{
easing: [ 60 ],
duration: 30000
});
Iam answering this because i have been after this problem , you should refer to this link if you are after cross browser solution :

</svg>
CSS:
.path {
stroke-dasharray: 1000;
stroke-dashoffset: 1000;
animation: dash 5s linear alternate infinite;
}
#keyframes dash {
from {
stroke-dashoffset: 1000;
}
to {
stroke-dashoffset: 0;
}
}
Demo
Also : Knob JS would be a good option
http://anthonyterrien.com/knob/
<input type="text" value="75" class="dial">
<script>
$(function() {
$(".dial").knob();
});
</script>
check the example where you can use knob as timer.
