animation just drawing using stroke, not using fill..

can you help me, how to make animate drawing svg with fill, not using stoke (without stroke)

What exactly would a fill animation look like? Stroke has a starting position and draws round a shape, fill just fills it so there's no starting/ending point. — Robert Longson, Feb 11 '15 at 15:46
Take a look at this answer, it may be of interest https://stackoverflow.com/a/32858946/1926369 — vals, Nov 08 '18 at 14:52
@Royson, I have a hard time understanding why anyone would put a bounty on an unclear question. It's unclear what the outcome should be and why animating fill over stroke would be beneficial. — tao, Nov 10 '18 at 19:44
@AndreiGheorghiu I am trying to do something that is similar to the question above. The only solution to this that I have found is to use Inkscape and create the SVG path from it and then use the path. I want something that can work with various fonts. — dRoyson, Nov 12 '18 at 04:58

As Robert said, you will need to explain what you mean by "animating the fill". There are many ways you could do it.

But perhaps something like the following is what you were after?

Thanks for your participant Mr.Paul.. but, when drawing, i want to use fill, not stroke and... so, could you help me for make that..? — Made Taman, Feb 12 '15 at 08:22
You need to explain how you want the fill to animate. What should it look like? — Paul LeBeau, Feb 12 '15 at 09:24
@PaulLeBeau I believe I'm looking for something similar to Made Taman. I want the `fill` attribute to draw itself in the way that the stroes do in your animation. The stroke offset animation allows it to look like someone else is drawing the lines. With fill, the animation is only on opacity. Is it possible to "fade in" the fill bit by bit? — Jacob Raccuia, Dec 10 '18 at 06:07
