{{APIRef("SVG")}}
The SVGAnimatedEnumeration interface describes attribute values which are constants from a particular enumeration and which can be animated.
baseVal.The SVGAnimatedEnumeration interface do not provide any specific methods.
Considering this snippet with a {{SVGElement("clipPath")}} element: Its {{SVGAttr("clipPathUnits")}} is associated with a SVGAnimatedEnumeration object.
<svg viewBox="0 0 100 100" width="200" height="200">
<clipPath id="clip1" clipPathUnits="userSpaceOnUse">
<circle cx="50" cy="50" r="35" />
</clipPath>
<!-- Some reference rect to materialized to clip path -->
<rect id="r1" x="0" y="0" width="45" height="45" />
</svg>
This snippet gets the element, and logs the baseVal and animVal of the {{domxref("SVGClipPathElement.clipPathUnits")}} property. As no animation is happening, they have the same value.
const clipPathElt = document.getElementById("clip1");
console.log(clipPathElt.clipPathUnits.baseVal); // Logs 1 that correspond to userSpaceOnUse
console.log(clipPathElt.clipPathUnits.animVal); // Logs 1 that correspond to userSpaceOnUse
