In JavaScript we have document.elementfrompoint to get an element based on coordinates.
Is there any thing like that in Openlaszlo to get a view based on coordinate?
There is no direct support for that functionality in OpenLaszlo, but for ActionScript 3 based runtimes you can utilize the flash.display.DisplayObjectContainer#getObjectsUnderPoint() method. In the DHTML runtime, you can use the document.elementFromPoint(x, y), and based on Quirksmode that should be supported by all modern browsers.
Here is an example program implementing an canvas.elementFromPoint() method:
<canvas debug="true">
<passthrough when="$as3">
import flash.geom.Point;
</passthrough>
<view id="background" width="100%" height="100%" bgcolor="#eeeeee" clickable="true"/>
<view id="red" x="200" y="100" width="200" height="200" bgcolor="#ff0000" opacity="0.3" clickable="true" />
<view id="green" x="150" y="200" width="200" height="200" bgcolor="#00ff00" opacity="0.3" clickable="true"/>
<view id="blue" x="250" y="200" width="200" height="200" bgcolor="#0000ff" opacity="0.3" clickable="true"/>
<handler name="onclick" reference="lz.GlobalMouse">
canvas.elementFromPoint();
</handler>
<method name="elementFromPoint"><![CDATA[
var mouseX = canvas.getMouse('x'),
mouseY = canvas.getMouse('y'),
objects = null, // array of objects at mouse pointer in SWF runtime
element = null; // The element we are looking for
Debug.info( 'mouse position: x=' + mouseX + ' / mouseY=' + mouseY );
if ($as3) {
// in SWF runtime, use the DisplayObjectContainer.getObjectsUnderPoint() method
objects = canvas.getDisplayObject().getObjectsUnderPoint(new Point(mouseX, mouseY));
element = objects[objects.length-1].owner;
} else {
// in DHTML, we can use elementFromPoint, and need to retrieve the owner view of the div
element = document.elementFromPoint(mouseX, mouseY).owner.owner;
}
Debug.info('View under mousecursor:', element);
return element;
]]></method>
</canvas>
There are 4 views, one background view scaled to 100% x 100%. And three color views: red, green and blue - with the blue one being the top one. When clicking on the view, the correct view object is returned.
The code has been tested in the DHTML runtime with Chrome 22.0, Firefox 16.0.1, and Opera 12.02. Flash should work in every browser, I haven't tested with IE.
I don't think so.
You will have to build your own custom array or observer object, collect all views and then loop through all items and do a check if the coordinates are inside the bounding box of the view.
In Flash there is also something like "hitTest", that might be similar to JavaScript's "document.elementfrompoint" to get the exact pixel matching, in case the bounding box is not enough for you.

In my application I need to use the same icon in different places.
in v-card-action's button
in a SVG graphic
For the button it is as explained in vuetify documentation:
<v-card-actions>
<v-btn value="previous" color="red" >
<span class="hidden-sm-and-down">Previous</span>
<v-icon right>mdi-arrow-left-circle</v-icon>
</v-btn>
</v-card-actions>
But now, how to use the exact same icon (using it's name) in a custom SVG
<svg viewBox="0 0 100 100">
<rec x="0" y="0" width="100" height="100" stroke="grey" />
<???> mdi-arrow-left-circle </???>
</svg>
First, do i need to use SVG <img>, <text> or <path> primitive ?
Second, how do i get the proper icon from it's name mdi-arrow-left-circle ?
I had the exact same question. This link came in handy when putting this together:
How do I include a font awesome icon in my svg?
Disclaimer: I'm using TS components in Vue and have added Vuetify.
in the template I have a SVG:
<svg>
<text
x="100"
y="100"
class="licon"
fill="red">
{{ content('mdi-close') }}
</text>
</svg>
The content method does this:
content(cls: string): string {
// this copies the content from the pseudo element :before as it's needed to show the icon from material design
const ele = document.querySelector('.' + cls);
if(ele) {
const styles = window.getComputedStyle(ele, ':before');
return styles.content.replaceAll('"', "");
}
return '';
}
The last piece needed was to make sure to use the correct font (include in your stylesheet/etc):
.licon {
font: bold 300px 'Material Design Icons';
}
Hopefully this helps someone else.
Update: as of February 2014, Meteor supports reactive SVG, so no workaround is necessary.
Meteor 0.5.9
I would like to create a group of shapes, one for each document in the collection. I can create shapes one at a time in a template, but not inside of an {{#each loop}}.
This works:
<Template name="map">
<svg viewBox="0 0 500 600" version="1.1">
<rect x="0" y="0" width="100" height="100" fill={{color}}/>
</svg>
</Template>
Template.map.color = function() {
return "green";
};
This does not:
<Template name="map">
<svg viewBox="0 0 500 600" version="1.1">
{{#each colors}}
<rect x="0" y="0" width="100" height="100" fill={{color}}/>
{{/each}}
</svg>
</Template>
Template.map.colors = function() {
return [{color: "red"}, {color: "blue"}];
}
Anything I try to create inside of using {{#each}} just doesn't show up, even though I can create them manually, even with attributes inserted by Meteor through the template.
I also tried just sending a single object {color: "red"} to the template and using {{#with colors}}, and that does not work either. In addition to the SVG, I've also put plain s into the templates to make sure information gets to the template correctly, and those are all working as expected, with {{#each}} and with {{#with}}.
Should I be able to do what I'm trying to do?
(Updated April 1, 2013)
Found a way that combines Handlebars with insertion by Javascript. Have to give credit to this blog entry for figuring this one out:
http://nocircleno.com/blog/svg-and-handlebars-js-templates/
I created the following two files, placed them inside the client folder of a new Meteor directory and I got the html successfully.
Testing.js:
<head>
<title>testing</title>
</head>
<body>
</body>
<template name="map">
<svg version="1.1" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
{{#each colors}}
<rect x="0" y="{{yPosition}}" width="100" height="100" fill="{{color}}"/>
{{/each}}
</svg>
</template>
Testing.html:
(function () {
var count = 0;
Template.map.yPosition = function() {
count++;
return (count-1) * 100;
};
Template.map.colors = function() {
return [{color: "red"}, {color: "blue"}];
};
Meteor.startup(function() {
var svgElement = document.createElementNS("http://www.w3.org/2000/svg", "svg");
svgElement.width = 500;
svgElement.height = 600;
document.getElementsByTagName("body")[0].appendChild(svgElement);
var svgFragment = new DOMParser().parseFromString(Template.map(), "text/xml");
svgElement.appendChild(svgFragment.documentElement);
});
})();
I came across the same problem experimenting with Meteor and SVG elements and discovered that you can add elements and get them to show up with the two methods below. One option is to just wrap the elements in the each loop in an <svg></svg>, like this:
<svg viewbox="0 0 100 100" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
{{#each pieces}}
<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><circle cx="{{x}}" cy="{{y}}" r="1" fill="{{color}}"></circle></svg>
{{/each}}
</svg>
Another options is to (on template render) create an svg element with jQuery that contains the element you want to insert, then use jQuery to grab that inner element and insert it into the svg element already in the DOM, like so (in coffeescript):
for piece in Pieces.find().fetch()
$el = $("<svg><circle cx='#{piece.x}' cy='#{piece.y}' r='1' class='a'></circle></svg>")
$el.find('circle').appendTo #$('svg')
You could also use something like d3 or RaphaelJS to do the inserting. You can even make the individual elements reactive to your Collection and animate easily by using a library like d3 in the Collection observer callbacks like so (again, coffeescript):
Pieces.find().observe {
added: (piece)=>
# using jquery (could use d3 instead)
$el = $("<svg><circle cx='#{piece.x}' cy='#{piece.y}' r='1' fill='#{piece.color}' data-id='#{piece._id}'></circle></svg>")
$el.find('circle').appendTo #$('svg')
changed: (newPiece, oldPiece)=>
# using d3 to animate change
d3.select("[data-id=#{oldPiece._id}]").transition().duration(1000).attr {
cx: newPiece.x
cy: newPiece.y
fill: newPiece.color
}
removed: (piece)=>
#$("[data-id=#{piece._id}]").remove()
}
These methods seem to work in latest Chrome, Safari, Firefox browsers on Mac, but I haven't tested in others.
According to the Using Blaze page, Meteor will have first class support of SVG when Blaze is released.
Box size known. Text string length unknown. Fit text to box without ruining its aspect ratio.
After an evening of googling and reading the SVG spec, I'm pretty sure this isn't possible without JavaScript. The closest I could get was using the textLength and lengthAdjust text attributes, but that stretches the text along one axis only.
<svg width="436" height="180"
style="border:solid 6px"
xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
<text y="50%" textLength="436" lengthAdjust="spacingAndGlyphs">UGLY TEXT</text>
</svg>
I am aware of SVG Scaling Text to fit container and fitting text into the box
I didn't find a way to do it directly without Javascript, but I found a JS quite easy solution, without for loops and without modify the font-size and fits well in all dimensions, that is, the text grows until the limit of the shortest side.
Basically, I use the transform property, calculating the right proportion between the desired size and the current one.
This is the code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<svg version="1.2" viewBox="0 0 1000 1000" width="1000" height="1000" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" >
<text id="t1" y="50" >MY UGLY TEXT</text>
<script type="application/ecmascript">
var width=500, height=500;
var textNode = document.getElementById("t1");
var bb = textNode.getBBox();
var widthTransform = width / bb.width;
var heightTransform = height / bb.height;
var value = widthTransform < heightTransform ? widthTransform : heightTransform;
textNode.setAttribute("transform", "matrix("+value+", 0, 0, "+value+", 0,0)");
</script>
</svg>
In the previous example the text grows until the width == 500, but if I use a box size of width = 500 and height = 30, then the text grows until height == 30.
first of all: just saw that the answer doesn't precisely address your need - it might still be an option, so here we go:
you are rightly observing that svg doesn't support word-wrapping directly. however, you might benefit from foreignObject elements serving as a wrapper for xhtml fragments where word-wrapping is available.
have a look at this self-contained demo (available online):

I've developed #Roberto answer, but instead of transforming (scaling) the textNode, we simply:
give it font-size of 1em to begin with
calculate the scale based on getBBox
set the font-size to that scale
(You can also use 1px etc.)
Here's the React HOC that does this:
import React from 'react';
import TextBox from './TextBox';
const AutoFitTextBox = TextBoxComponent =>
class extends React.Component {
constructor(props) {
super(props);
this.svgTextNode = React.createRef();
this.state = { scale: 1 };
}
componentDidMount() {
const { width, height } = this.props;
const textBBox = this.getTextBBox();
const widthScale = width / textBBox.width;
const heightScale = height / textBBox.height;
const scale = Math.min(widthScale, heightScale);
this.setState({ scale });
}
getTextBBox() {
const svgTextNode = this.svgTextNode.current;
return svgTextNode.getBBox();
}
render() {
const { scale } = this.state;
return (
<TextBoxComponent
forwardRef={this.svgTextNode}
fontSize={`${scale}em`}
{...this.props}
/>
);
}
};
export default AutoFitTextBox(TextBox);
This is still an issue in 2022. There is no way to define bounds and get text to scale in a pure scalable vector graphic. Adjusting the font size manually is still the only solution it seems, and the examples given are quite buggy. Has anybody figured out a clean solution that works? Judging by the svg spec it looks like a pure solution doesn't exist.
And to provide some sort of answer myself, this resource is the best I've found, is hacky, but works much more robustly: fitrsvgtext - storybook | fitrsvgtext - GitHub
I don't think its the solution for what you want to do but you can use textLength
with percentage ="100%" for full width.
<svg width="436" height="180"
style="border:solid 6px"
xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
<text x="0%" y="50%" textLength="100%">blabla</text>
</svg>
you can also add text-anchor="middle" and change the x position to center perfectly your text
this will not change the fontsize and you will have weird space letterspacing...
JSFIDDLE DEMO
how can we achieve this?
I got the SVG in the function, how can i make it transparent on top of canvas?? Currently i have all my functions working on the canvas. But I found out that SVG can do the add and remove function. How can I go about it?
function Add() {
var id = Math.floor(Math.random()*101+1);
x = Math.random() * 550;
y = Math.random() * 250;
if (document.getElementById('amount').value < 50){
document.getElementById('amount').value++;
svg = document.getElementById("main");
// construct uniqueid for the images
uniqueid = "frog" + document.getElementById('amount').value;
//namespaces for SVG
svgNS="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg";
xlinkNS="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink";
// create a image element
image = document.createElementNS(svgNS, 'image');
// set id and other attributes
image.setAttributeNS(null, "id", uniqueid);
image.setAttributeNS(xlinkNS, "href","jef-frog.gif");
image.setAttributeNS(null, "x", x);
image.setAttributeNS(null, "y", y);
image.setAttributeNS(null, "width", "50");
image.setAttributeNS(null, "height", "50");
// append to svg
svg.appendChild(image);
} else {
alert("we got 50");
}
}
Assuming you are asking about transparency in SVG <image> elements, I'm pleased to say that it works just fine:
Demo: http://jsfiddle.net/XBCEK/
<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xl="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">
<image xl:href="http://phrogz.net/tmp/alphaball.png"
x="20" y="30" width="128" height="128" />
<image xl:href="http://phrogz.net/tmp/hand.gif"
x="220" y="30" width="32" height="32" />
</svg>
If you embed that SVG on a page along with the following CSS:
body { background:url(http://phrogz.net/tmp/grid.gif) }
svg { background:rgba(255,0,0,0.3) /*…*/ }
…then you will see that:
The background of the SVG is transparent by default. We can even provide a low-opacity color background that lets the background of the page (the grid) show through.
The background of both 8-bit-transparency PNG (the ball) and 1-bit transparency GIF (the hand) allow the background of the SVG/page to shine through correctly.
I’m making a set of buttons which use dynamic gradients. I’ve taken care of Firefox 3.6+ and WebKit by using their proprietary CSS extensions and all I need to do is support Opera, iOS and IE9 by using background-image: url("gradient.svg").
This is relatively easy, I made an SVG file, linked it and got it working. However, I’m making a set so I need at least 6 gradients. When I normally do it in images, I create a sprite for fast HTTP access. I’m not sure how to achieve this in SVG – can I use one file and access different parts of its XML by using #identifiers, like XBL does?
My current SVG:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE svg PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD SVG 1.1//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/1.1/DTD/svg11.dtd">
<svg version="1.1" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
<defs>
<linearGradient id="select-gradient" x1="0" x2="0" y1="0" y2="1">
<stop offset="0%" stop-color="rgb(231,244,248)"/>
<stop offset="100%" stop-color="rgb(207,233,241)"/>
</linearGradient>
<style type="text/css">
rect {
fill: url(#select-gradient);
}
</style>
</defs>
<rect x="0" y="0" rx="6" ry="6" height="100%" width="100%"/>
</svg>
And then I have CSS:
.button-1 {
background-image: url("gradient-1.svg");
}
.button-2 {
background-image: url("gradient-2.svg");
}
I want to do something like this:
.button-1 {
background-image: url("gradient.svg#gradient1");
}
.button-2 {
background-image: url("gradient.svg#gradient2");
}
Is it even possible? Can you help me out? I really don’t wanna push 6 XML files when I can do it with one.
If you just want gradients for button backgrounds, most of this can be acheived in css. For the remaining browsers, ie6 + can user ms filters:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms532847.aspx
iOS uses webkit to render, so you can use -webkit vendor prefix. Unfortunately you will still need svg for opera, but this may make it easier (or just use a normal image sprite for opera's 1% of users)
in theory - according to SVG documentation #Params it is possible. You could use 2 params for setting up both colors, you could create multiple rects with different gradients, height set to 0 and then make only one 100% (like ?gradient2=100%)
What you could do is load your SVG file that contains all of the definitions first, and then load your other SVG files.
Using Firefox, jQuery SVG , and a minor shot of framework...
in your XHTML:
<div id="common_svg_defs"><!--ieb--></div>
<div id="first_thing"><!--ieb--></div>
<div id="second_thing"><!--ieb--></div>
in your JavaScript:
var do_stuff = function()
{
// load your common svg file with this goo.
$('#common_svg_defs').svg({
loadURL: 'path/filename.svg',
onLoad: function(svg, error) { run_test(svg, error);} });
}
var run_test = function(svg, error)
{
if (typeof(error) !== "undefined")
{
if (typeof(console.log) !== "undefined")
{
console.log(error);
}
}
else
{
// load your other svg files here, or just
// set a flag letting you know it's ready.
$('#first_thing').svg({
loadURL: 'path/anotherfilename.svg',
onLoad: function(svg, error) { somecallback(svg, error);} });
$('#second_thing').svg({
loadURL: 'path/anotherfilename.svg',
onLoad: function(svg, error) { somecallback(svg, error);} });
}
}
Because the id can be found in the documents scope, the SVG are capable of finding the IRI reference.
This allows you to define things once (that would not otherwise be defined in a css) and avoid id collisions.
