Questions about the Flag icon

›Where does Flag stop after hover?

It finishes the cycle it is in (at most 1.33 s) and then rests on its first frame, so it never freezes mid-motion. Keyboard focus plays it as well; a tap on a touch screen does not.

›Is Flag decorative?

By default it is aria-hidden. Pass aria-label="Flag" to announce it as an image, or leave it hidden when the link or button it sits in has its own text.

›Can Flag loop all the time instead?

Yes: pass interaction="loop". It then plays continuously; stays on the static first frame when reduced motion is preferred.
