SVG abstract shapes responsive - svg

So I can make the following path, but I need the shape flipped so that the flat joining line (X) is on the bottom. I also need it to stretch the full width of its container.
<svg id="bigTriangleColor" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" version="1.1" width="100%" height="100" viewBox="0 0 100 102" preserveAspectRatio="none">
<path d="M0 0 L30 50 L100 0 Z"></path>
</svg>

With respect to flipping the shape, you can use a transform on the path, scaling the y-axis by -1. This will flip the shape up and "out" of view, so you also need to translate it down. If you want it to end up with exactly the same upper and lower boundaries as pre-flipped (as opposed to, say, at the bottom of its container, etc.) then you have to translate it down by the height of the shape, i.e. 50px in your example.
With respect to wanting it stretched to the full width of its container, the code in your question already contains the answer, i.e. width="100%". This is shown by placing the triangle into a div that is 250px wide. Contrast this with the original shape (on the left) with width of 100 not 100%.
div {
width: 250px;
height: 70px;
border: solid red 2px;
}
original: unflipped, untranslated, unstretched:
<div>
<svg id="bigTriangleColor2" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" version="1.1" width="100" height="100" viewBox="0 0 100 102" preserveAspectRatio="none">
<path transform="translate(0, 0) scale(1, 1)" d="M0 0 L30 50 L100 0 Z"></path>
</svg>
</div>
altered: flipped, translated, stretched:
<div>
<svg id="bigTriangleColor1" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" version="1.1" width="100%" height="100" viewBox="0 0 100 102" preserveAspectRatio="none">
<path transform="translate(0, 50) scale(1, -1)" d="M0 0 L30 50 L100 0 Z"></path>
</svg>
</div>

Responsive full width svg logo

So I have this logo that fits the whole page. Is there anyway that, when the browser is resized I can move these paths? That way the height stays the same?
Example of what I want to achieve
Here's my svg code
<svg version="1.1" id="Layer_1" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" x="0px" y="0px"

</svg>
you can do something like this by using preserveAspectRatio="none" for the svg element together with a fixed height and width:100%. This would give tou what you need but the the stroke would be scaled differently on the vertical and horizontal.
To fix it you need to add vector-effect="non-scaling-stroke" for the path.
svg{height:100px; width:100%}
<svg viewBox="0 0 100 20" preserveAspectRatio="none">
<path stroke="black" stroke-width="5" vector-effect="non-scaling-stroke" d="M 1,5V15M1,10H97"/>
</svg>
Yes it is possible, with a bit of trickery. Below is a modified verion of your SVG that behaves how you want.
This matches your SVG exactly, but has a limitation. The trick we are using relies on extending the middle bar a long way to the left. Then covering up the left end of the bar with your vertical piece. But in your original SVG the vertical piece is not right at the left end of your SVG. So I've had to hide some of the extension with a white rectangle. This assumes your background will also be white. If it isn't you'll need to change that white rectangle to be the same colour as your page background.

</svg>
If you want to get a better idea how the trick works, have a look at this version. I've modified the SVG to make the trick more apparent.
svg {
background-color: red;
overflow: visible;
}
rect {
opacity: 0.5;
}
<svg version="1.1" id="Layer_1" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" width="100%" height="52">

</svg>
However if you don't mind the vertical piece on the left end being moved so it's hard up against the left side of the SVG, then we can remove that restriction regarding the background. The new version below will work for any page background colour.
<svg version="1.1" id="Layer_1" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" width="100%" height="52">

Viewbox changing width of element

Would somebody be able to explain to me why adding viewBox="0 0 612 100" in the snippet below changes the width of the embedded rectangle? Based on everything I know about viewbox if the numbers match the user units of the SVG, no zooming or panning should be done, and thus the size of the two rectangles should be the same.
<div>
<svg width='612pt' height='100pt' xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
<rect width="100pt" height="100pt" />
</svg>
</div>
<div>
<svg width='612pt' height='100pt' viewBox="0 0 612 100" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
<rect width="100pt" height="100pt"/>
</svg>
</div>
Your viewbox is measured in pixels (px - also the default unit in SVG), while you have measured the other widths/heights in points (pt).
Point vs Pixel: What is the difference?
Use pixels all over, and things will work the way you expect:
<svg width="200" height="150" viewBox="0 0 200 150" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
<rect width="100%" height="100%" fill="pink"/>
<rect width="100pt" height="100pt" fill="red"/>
<rect width="100" height="100" fill="green"/>
</svg>

An SVG having only definitions for another scaling SVG still needs to scale?

My SVG is width="1200" height="600" viewBox="0 0 1200 600". It uses a clipPath from defs of another SVG.
<svg class="svg-def">
<defs>
<clipPath id="clip-1"> ...
</defs>
</svg>
<svg width="1200" height="600" viewBox="0 0 1200 600">
<g clip-path="url(#clip-1)">
...
</g>
</svg>
Demo
When .svg-def does not have width="1200" height="600" viewBox="0 0 1200 600" (the first image), on window width narrower than 1200, the right side is clipped. This is not desired.
I want the second image -- the clip is just the size of the SVG. The second image is good because the <clipPath> being used is from an <svg> element with the same width="1200" height="600" viewBox="0 0 1200 600"
<svg class="svg-def">
<defs>
<clipPath id="clip-1"> ...
</defs>
</svg>
<svg class="svg-def" width="1200" height="600" viewBox="0 0 1200 600">
<defs>
<clipPath id="clip-2"> ...
</defs>
</svg>
Questions
1) In <clipPath> <rect width="100%" height="100%"/>, what is 100% relative to?
2) The first clip's display width varies with window width (when the latter is narrow than 1200px). Narrower window width = narrower display width. What is the display width relative to?
3) So if I have an SVG which has only <defs>, its <svg> tag still has to have viewbox values, so that the other SVG which uses the definitions (and which scales with window width) can have definitions in correct sizes?

Flip SVG Half Circle

I would like to flip this SVG Path horizontally so that the curved arc is facing down. Any help would be greatly appreciated in adjusting the coordinates...
Here is what I got so far:
<style>
.circular path {

stroke: #3498db;
}
</style>

SVG Animation on a ring outside of an icon

I am trying to animate the outer ring of an SVG. Since it's not filled circle, I can't change the element and spell it out with cx and cy and then change it via the animateTransform in the code.
What I' trying to do is make the outer ring "pulse" by going from 100% down to 80% then back up to 100%. I can make the entire SVG animate changing the scale="1 1" to scale=".8 .8" but that scales the whole SVG and from the upper left corner. Any thoughts on how to animate just the outer ring? I generate my SVG using Illustrator which doesn't make clean SVG. Any help is much appreciated.

The simplest solution would be to convert your outer circle back to a thick line. The equivalent circle would be:
<circle cx="25" cy="25" r="19.5" stroke-width="2" fill="none" stroke="#00AEEF"/>
Then you can just animate the radius.
<circle cx="25" cy="25" r="19.5" stroke-width="2" fill="none" stroke="#00AEEF">
<animate attributeName="r" values="19.5; 15.6; 19.5" dur="1s" repeatCount="indefinite"/>
</circle>
The final working demo is as follows:

It's quite easy to do this with css transform animations. Insert '-webkit-', '-moz-' and '-ms-' prefixes if needed.
#keyframes pulse {
0% {
transform: scale(1);
}
100% {
transform: scale(0.8);
}
}
#ring {
animation-name: pulse;
animation-duration: 0.5s;
animation-iteration-count: infinite;
animation-direction: alternate-reverse;
transform-origin: center;
}
