SVGPointList: clear() method

The clear() method of the SVGPointList interface removes all items from the list.

Syntax

clear()

Parameters

None.

Return value

None (undefined).

Exceptions

• NoModificationAllowedError DOMException
  • : Thrown if the list is read-only.

Examples

The following example shows an SVG which contains a <polyline> with five coordinate pairs. Calling clear() empties the list. Therefore the polyline no longer displays in the SVG.

<svg id="svg" viewBox="-10 -10 120 120" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
  <polyline
    id="example"
    stroke="black"
    fill="none"
    points="50,0 21,90 98,35 2,35 79,90" />
</svg>

let example = document.getElementById("example");
example.points.clear();
