How do I 'cover fit' this image to my Path? - svg

How do I properly display the profile picture inside this shape instead of making a cut of the image?
<Svg
height="300"
width="300"
>
<Defs>
<ClipPath id="clip">
<Path d="M136.5 85 189 136 136.5 187 84 136z" />
</ClipPath>
</Defs>
<Image
x="0"
y="0"
width="100%"
height="100%"
href={{ uri: "https://cdn.business2community.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/blank-profile-picture-973460_640.png" }}
clipPath="url(#clip)"
preserveAspectRatio="xMinYMid meet"
/>
</Svg>
Currently it looks like:
But this is a cut of the image instead of 'fitting' it to the shape - I'm trying to achieve a 'cover fit'.


Clip-paths are applied after the image is sized, so you have to position & size the image appropriately. Here is a pure SVG version that works the way I think you want it to:
<svg
height="300px"
width="300px">
<defs>
<clipPath id="clip">
<path d="M136.5 85 189 136 136.5 187 84 136z" />
</clipPath>
</defs>
<image x="28%" y="27%" width="35%" height="35%"
xlink:href="https://cdn.business2community.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/blank-profile-picture-973460_640.png"
clip-path="url(#clip)"/>
</svg>

How inherit stroke color in SVG? (Not fill, but stroke color)

I have an .SVG where I call with <img src="/image/arrow.svg" alt="Arrow">. Everything is good, but I would like to dynamically set a different stroke color (Not fill color...) for my SVG like <img ... style="color:red">. I read that I could use fill="currentColor" on my path,but how could I do for my stroke color?
My SVG file:
<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" version="1.1" height="100" width="100">
<path d="M20 10 H90 V80" fill="transparent" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="20" stroke-linecap="round"></path>
<path d="M10 90 L100 0" fill="transparent" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="20" stroke-linecap="round"></path>
</svg>
My html:
<img src="/image/arrow.svg" alt="Arrow" style="color:red">

As Robert Lognson correctly stated, and previously discussed on StackOverflow, svg used as an image element has a new image context, thus it does not use the document's styles, whereas an inline svg element does use them.
So the following example works:
svg.red {
color: red;
}
<svg class="red" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" version="1.1" height="100" width="100">
<path d="M20 10 H90 V80" fill="transparent" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="20" stroke-linecap="round"></path>
<path d="M10 90 L100 0" fill="transparent" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="20" stroke-linecap="round"></path>
</svg>

What I'm doing wrong?

This is not the answer you are expecting. I would have putted it as a comment but I need to add some code.
This is how a FontAwesome icon is looking like in SVG:
no width attribute,
no height attribute,
a viewBox attribute
inside nothing else but one path with a fill="currentColor" attribute

Your SVG has:
a width attribute,
a height attribute,
NO viewBox attribute
inside 2 groups the second one with 2 paths.
I think you should try using only one path. In order to join the 2 paths in one path ypu can do something like this:
<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" viewBox="0 0 512 512">

svg changes when converted to symbol

I have this dummy svg showing a cirle with some grey figure inside
<svg viewBox="0 0 86 86" version="1.1" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">

</g>

when I convert it to a sprite using gulp-svg-sprite with mode symbol I get this result
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"><symbol viewBox="0 0 86 86" id="company"><defs><circle id="aa" cx="43" cy="43" r="43"/></defs><g fill="none" fill-rule="evenodd"><mask id="ab" fill="#fff"><use xlink:href="#aa"/></mask><use fill="currentcolor" xlink:href="#aa"/><g mask="url(#ab)" fill="#b8b8b8"><path d="M22 28v58h15v-9h14V59H29v6z"/></g></g></symbol></svg>
Now the grey figure breaks out of the circle and this even happens if I copy root defs- and g-tags from my original svg directly into the symbol-tag. I have also tried inserting a clipPath in the symbol version but with no luck.
What am I missing here?

UPDATED: Simplifying your svg may work ... try with the examples below, one using symbols, one without (in case the gulp sprite code cannot have nested symbols) ... it may be an issue with the defs area.
svg {
width: 100px;
}
<svg viewBox="0 0 86 86" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">
<defs>
<symbol id="c">
<circle cx="43" cy="43" r="43" fill="currentColor" />
</symbol>
<mask id="mask" color="#fff">
<use xlink:href="#c" />
</mask>
</defs>
<use xlink:href="#c" color="#666" />
<path fill="#999" mask="url(#mask)" d="M10 0v60h30v-10h20v-20h-30v9z" />
</svg>
<svg viewBox="0 0 86 86" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
<defs>
<mask id="mask2" color="#fff">
<circle cx="43" cy="43" r="43" fill="#FFF" />
</mask>
</defs>
<circle cx="43" cy="43" r="43" fill="currentColor" />
<path fill="#999" mask="url(#mask2)" d="M10 0v60h30v-10h20v-20h-30v9z" />
</svg>

It is probably not a complete answer but I managed to get it work;
First I extended my defs with a clipPath using my circle
<defs>
<circle id="circle" cx="43" cy="43" r="43"></circle>
<clipPath id="clippath"><use overflow="visible" xlink:href="#circle" /></clipPath>
</defs>
Then, using the clipPath on my first group and switching from gulp-svg-sprite to gulp-svgstore (which moves the defs to the top, above the symbols) gives me what I expect both as single svg and as an svg symbol sprite.

SVG & XLink: Rendering of Circle is inconsistent?

I have inline SVG showing a simple circle, which works as expected:
<svg width="200" height="200" viewBox="-25 -25 50 50" >
<circle cx="0" cy="0" r="15" />
</svg>
This same code renders differently if I include the circle via XLink:
<svg width="200" height="200" viewBox="-25 -25 50 50">
<use xlink:href="#circle"/>
</svg>
Here is an example: Fiddle
Why would these two examples render differently?
Thanks.

Simply add overflow="visible" to your symbol
refined answer based on Robert Longson's Comment:
Even better is to move your circle inside the symbol to a position so that it's inside the viewport.
<svg style="display:none;">
<symbol id="circle">
<circle cx="25" cy="25" r="15" />
</symbol>
</svg>
<svg width="200" height="200" viewBox="-25 -25 50 50">
<use x="-25" y="-25" xlink:href="#circle" />
</svg>
<svg width="200" height="200" viewBox="-25 -25 50 50">
<circle cx="0" cy="0" r="15" />
</svg>

Can strokes be used as part of clip-paths in SVGs?

I am in the middle of writing SVG output from MuPDF, and I've run up against what seems to be a limitation in the capabilities of SVG. I thought I'd ask here in case this was a known problem with a known workaround (or in case I'm doing something stupid!)
I have the following SVG:
<?xml version="1.0" standalone="no"?>
<!DOCTYPE svg PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD SVG 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/1.1/DTD/svg11.dtd">
<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" version="1.1" width="21.59cm" height="27.94cm" viewBox="0 0 600 600">
<path stroke-width="12" fill="none" stroke="#0000ff" d="M 150 300 L 80 300 L 80 370 L 150 370 " />
<clipPath id="cp0">
<path stroke-width="12" fill="none" stroke="#000000" d="M 150 300 L 80 300 L 80 370 L 150 370 " />
</clipPath>
<g clip-path="url(#cp0)">
<rect fill="#ff0000" x="0" y="0" width="600" height="600"/>
</g>
</svg>
This draws a stroked path (shaped like '[' in blue). Then it sets the same path to be a clipping path, and fills the clipping path in red.
I was hoping that the clipping path would be set to the stroked version of the path, and hence the red shape would exactly overwrite the blue one. In my tests here however, the "fill or strokedness" of the path is ignored, and the path is "filled" - hence I get a red square drawn within the blue shape.
Is there a way to get the behaviour I was hoping for? Or am I going to have to write code to manually flatten and stroke paths before outputting them to SVG?
Thanks in advance for any replies!

Clip-paths in svg are meant to be just the shape, not the traits of the shape, so in other words you'll not get the stroke included. What you can do is use a mask instead, setting the stroke of the path in the mask to white.
Here's an example:
<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" version="1.1" viewBox="0 0 600 600">
<defs>
<mask id="m0" maskUnits="userSpaceOnUse" x="0" y="0" width="600" height="600">
<path fill="none" stroke="white" stroke-width="5" d="M 150 300 L 80 300 L 80 370 L 150 370" />
</mask>
</defs>
<path stroke-width="12" fill="none" stroke="#0000ff" d="M 150 300 L 80 300 L 80 370 L 150 370 " />
<g mask="url(#m0)">
<rect fill="yellow" x="0" y="0" width="600" height="600" />
</g>
</svg>
