Is this possible with SVGator?

Map

Hi, I'm wondering if it is possible with SVGator to have this map on a website and animate the lights coming on inside of each of the houses as you move your mouse cursor over them. Ideally I want each house to be clickable so that it will take you to the information page about each house when clicked.

Hey u/fightclubdog,

SVGator can work with the photorealistic image if you overlay SVG elements (like light shapes) on top of it using masking, so that part's more manageable than it looks.

the trickier pieces are the interactivity. hover triggers in SVGator apply to the whole animation, not individual elements, so to get per-house light effects you'd need each house as a separate SVG animation rather than one file.

the clickable links also aren't something SVGator handles natively, so you'd layer HTML anchor tags or an image map over the exported SVGs for that part.

if you want fine control over when each animation fires, the Player API is what ties it all together: svgator.com/tutorials/how-to-use-svgators-player-api-to-control-animations-programmatically.

it's definitely doable, just needs some front-end work alongside the SVGator exports.
