svg clipping mask not working - svg

How can I make my clipping masks work?
I have 4 paths positioned at 0,0. I translate them and scale them so they are positioned at the same position as the referenced clipping mask.
Thanks!

The problem is that the translate and scale is also applied to the clip-path when the translate and scale is applied to an element. If you adjust the x/y/width/height on the clip path definition to something like 0.2/0.2/0.5/0.5 then you'll see the clip-path take effect.
You may want to express your clip path using %'s by specifying clipPathUnits="objectBoundingBox" in your clipPath element. That way, you may only need one clipPath definition.

How to add animation in the clippath of svg

I'm learning how to use svg clippath. And I know how to use the static clippath.
<svg width="500" height="150">
<clipPath id="circle">
<circle cx=50 cy=50 r=50></circle>
</clipPath>
<circle cx=50 cy=50 r=50></circle>
<rect x="0" y="0" width="30" height="15"
style="stroke: #ff0000; fill: none;" clip-path='url(#circle)'>
</rect>
</svg>
there I can get a clip rect.
code Image
but when I try to add an animation, the rect could out of the clippath.
<svg width="500" height="150">
<clipPath id="circle">
<circle cx=50 cy=50 r=50></circle>
</clipPath>
<circle cx=50 cy=50 r=50></circle>
<rect x="0" y="0" width="30" height="15"
style="stroke: #ff0000; fill: none;" clip-path='url(#circle)'>
<animateMotion
path="M10,50 q60,50 100,0 q60,-50 100,0"
begin="0s" dur="10s" repeatCount="indefinite"
rotate="auto"
></animateMotion>
</rect>
</svg>
The rect is out of clippath
what I need is when the rect is out of clippath, it could not be seen any more. The clippath is not allow to move.
So how to get the rectangle in motion to remain in the clippath？

You put the clipped rect in a group and you apply the animation to the group like so:
<svg viewBox="0 0 400 300">
<clipPath id="circle">
<circle cx=50 cy=50 r=50>
</circle>
</clipPath>
<g>
<circle cx=50 cy=50 r=50></circle>
<rect x="0" y="0" width="30" height="15"
style="stroke: #ff0000; fill: none;" clip-path='url(#circle)'>
</rect>
<animateMotion
path="M10,50 q60,50 100,0 q60,-50 100,0"
begin="0s" dur="10s" repeatCount="indefinite"
rotate="auto"
></animateMotion>
</g>
</svg>
UPDATE
The OP is commenting that his question has now been revised.
My question is how to not show the rectangle when it moves outside the clippath?
In this case you put the animated rect in a group and you clip the group like so:
<svg viewBox="0 0 500 150">
<clipPath id="circle">
<circle cx=50 cy=50 r=50></circle>
</clipPath>
<g clip-path='url(#circle)'>
<circle cx=50 cy=50 r=50></circle>
<rect x="0" y="0" width="30" height="15"
style="stroke: #ff0000; fill: none;" >
<animateMotion
path="M10,50 q60,50 100,0 q60,-50 100,0"
begin="0s" dur="10s" repeatCount="indefinite"
rotate="auto"
></animateMotion>
</rect>
</g>

Clip Path not working in an SVG element

I'm trying to get a rectangular <clipPath> to clip a <circle> in an SVG element, but I can't seem to get it work.
Does anyone know what the problem is?
Many thanks in advance for any help.
Codepen: https://codepen.io/emilychews/pen/jpLMaV
Em
#circle {width: 10rem;}
<defs>
<clipPath id="myClipPath">
<rect x="30" y="30" width="100" height="100"/>
</clipPath>
</defs>
<svg id="circle" style="clip-path: url(#myClipPath)" viewBox="0 0 391 391">
<circle fill="#000" cx="195.5" cy="195.5" r="195"/>
</svg>

You forget <svg> around your clip path declaration .
<svg width=0 height=0 >

<clipPath id="myClipPath">
<rect x="50px" y="50px" width="200px" height="200px"/>

edit: i simplified and i added a witdh and height attribute

There's no mask issue. The stroke on the path overrides the stroke on the use element, so in the question there are two grey (#303233) stroked paths. Removing the path stroke atribute allows the use to set one.

Cut off half of the SVG's text element

How can I make this
to look like this
So I want to halve the text element. I don't want to hide half of the text outside of SVG. Hiding it outside of g would be ok, but haven't found solution.
<svg width="500" height="500">
<g transform="translate(50,50)">
<rect width="80" height="50" style="fill:rgb(0,0,255);"/>
<text font-size="40" x="0" y="15" fill="black">SVG</text>
</g>
</svg>
JSFIDDLE:
http://jsfiddle.net/64nkLcdy/

Use the clip-path property :
<svg width="500" height="500">
<defs>
<clipPath id="myClip">
<rect width="80" height="50" />
</clipPath>
</defs>
<g transform="translate(50,50)">
<rect width="80" height="50" style="fill:rgb(0,0,255);" />
<text font-size="40" x="0" y="15" fill="black" clip-path="url(#myClip)">SVG</text>
</g>
</svg>

Use an <svg> element rather than a <g> as the svg element will clip its contents by default. The overflow property controls clipping i.e overflow="visible" doesn't clip but overflow="hidden" does.
<svg width="500" height="500">
<svg transform="translate(50,50)" width="80" height="50" overflow="hidden">
<rect width="80" height="50" style="fill:rgb(0,0,255);"/>
<text font-size="40" x="0" y="15" fill="black">SVG</text>

How to size an SVG

I am trying to create an SVG sprite.
I have set the SVG image to be 100px wide, 50px height, then offset the second by 50.
How can I set the size of the actual icon? Currently, the icon is huge and not 50px.

This is what I see:

DO NOT USE TRANSFORM FOR SCALING
What you are missing is a defined viewBox.
If you do not define a viewBox the viewBox is the same size as the height and width that you defined.
So when you draw a path and some of its point are above 370 then they will be outside its container. Since your defined size is 100 width by 50 height. Any point with values higher then the size will not be drawn.
when you define a viewBox you can change the size without affecting what is drawn or not.
This is the article i allways use when i forget how to properly scale svgs: https://css-tricks.com/scale-svg/

Like this? I just added transform="scale(0.1)" attribute to the g tag to make it 10x smaller
