I have some SVG elements grouped together in a <g> element (exactly the barcode 1D, PHP generates a barcode).
<g
style="fill:#000000;stroke:none"
id="barcode1D"
transform="matrix(1.2083333,0,0,0.8247805,62.027778,573.54235)">
<rect
x="0"
y="0"
width="4"
height="30"
id="xyz" />
....
<rect
x="224"
y="0"
width="0"
height="30"
id="xyzn" /> </g>
The barcode is generated in various widths, lengths. How can I set the width permanently ?
Based on this example, I am asking for a hint. Thank you for your help in advance.
SVG g element does not have width and height attributes. Therefore, you can not set height and width on it.
You should use a foreignObject with a svg inside of it to do so.
<svg width="640" height="480" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
<foreignObject id="G" width="300" height="200">
<svg>
<!-- Barcode here -->
<rect fill="black" stroke-width="2" height="112" width="84" y="55" x="55" stroke="#000000"/>
<circle fill="#FF0000" stroke="#000000" stroke-width="5" cx="155" cy="65" id="svg_7" r="50"/>
</svg>
</foreignObject>
</svg>
Is there a way to set the origin of CSS animation (transform - rotation) relatively to x,y of the element <use/> with CSS?
There might be several <use/> in a given <svg/> at different places:
absolute position of each element might not be hard coded in CSS.
.spin {
transition:4s linear;
-webkit-transition:4s linear;
}
.spin:hover {
transform-origin: 0% 0%;
-webkit-transform-origin: 0% 0%;
transform:rotateZ(360eg);
-webkit-transform:rotateZ(360deg);
}
<body>
<svg width="200" height="200" viewBox="0 0 200 200" xmlns:svg="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" >
<defs>
<path id="shape1" d="M0,0 V20 H20 Z" fill="red" stroke="red" stroke-width="0" />
</defs>
<circle cx="0" cy="0" r="80" fill="none" stroke="green"/>
<use xlink:href="#shape1" x="40" y="40" class="spin" />
</svg>
</body>
Animating the transform of a <use> is complicated by the fact that you are using the x and y attributes. The spec says that:
The x and y properties define an additional transformation (translate(x,y), ...
This extra transform component can mess with the transform you are animating, and produce unexpected effects.
The simple fix is to remove the x and y attributes, and use a parent <g> element to set the position of the path.
<g transform="translate(40,40)">
<use xlink:href="#shape1" class="spin" />
</g>
Updated example
.spin {
transition:4s linear;
-webkit-transition:4s linear;
}
.spin:hover {
transform-origin: 0px 0px;
-webkit-transform-origin: 0px 0px;
transform:rotateZ(360eg);
-webkit-transform:rotateZ(360deg);
}
<body>
<svg width="200" height="200" viewBox="0 0 200 200" xmlns:svg="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" >

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>
</svg>
</svg>
I want to color the background of svg text similar to background-color in css
I was only able to find documentation on fill, which colors the text itself
Is it even possible?
You could use a filter to generate the background.
<svg width="100%" height="100%">
<defs>
<filter x="0" y="0" width="1" height="1" id="solid">
<feFlood flood-color="yellow" result="bg" />
<feMerge>
<feMergeNode in="bg"/>
<feMergeNode in="SourceGraphic"/>
</feMerge>
</filter>
</defs>
<text filter="url(#solid)" x="20" y="50" font-size="50">solid background</text>
</svg>
No this is not possible, SVG elements do not have background-... presentation attributes.
To simulate this effect you could draw a rectangle behind the text attribute with fill="green" or something similar (filters). Using JavaScript you could do the following:
var ctx = document.getElementById("the-svg"),
textElm = ctx.getElementById("the-text"),
SVGRect = textElm.getBBox();
var rect = document.createElementNS("http://www.w3.org/2000/svg", "rect");
rect.setAttribute("x", SVGRect.x);
rect.setAttribute("y", SVGRect.y);
rect.setAttribute("width", SVGRect.width);
rect.setAttribute("height", SVGRect.height);
rect.setAttribute("fill", "yellow");
ctx.insertBefore(rect, textElm);
The solution I have used is:
<svg>
<line x1="100" y1="100" x2="500" y2="100" style="stroke:black; stroke-width: 2"/>
<text x="150" y="105" style="stroke:white; stroke-width:0.6em">Hello World!</text>
<text x="150" y="105" style="fill:black">Hello World!</text>
</svg>
A duplicate text item is being placed, with stroke and stroke-width attributes. The stroke should match the background colour, and the stroke-width should be just big enough to create a "splodge" on which to write the actual text.
A bit of a hack and there are potential issues, but works for me!
Instead of using a <text> tag, the <foreignObject> tag can be used, which allows for XHTML content with CSS.
No, you can not add background color to SVG elements. You can do it programmatically with d3.
var text = d3.select("text");
var bbox = text.node().getBBox();
var padding = 2;
var rect = self.svg.insert("rect", "text")
.attr("x", bbox.x - padding)
.attr("y", bbox.y - padding)
.attr("width", bbox.width + (padding*2))
.attr("height", bbox.height + (padding*2))
.style("fill", "red");
Answer by Robert Longson (#RobertLongson) with modifications:
<svg width="100%" height="100%">
<defs>
<filter x="0" y="0" width="1" height="1" id="solid">
<feFlood flood-color="yellow"/>
<feComposite in="SourceGraphic" operator="xor"/>
</filter>
</defs>
<text filter="url(#solid)" x="20" y="50" font-size="50"> solid background </text>
<text x="20" y="50" font-size="50">solid background</text>
</svg>
and we have no bluring and no heavy "getBBox" :)
Padding is provided by white spaces in text-element with filter.
It's worked for me
Going further with #dbarton_uk answer, to avoid duplicating text you can use paint-order=stroke style:
<svg>
<line x1="100" y1="100" x2="350" y2="100" style="stroke:grey; stroke-width: 100"/>
<text x="150" y="105" style="stroke:white; stroke-width:0.5em; fill:black; paint-order:stroke; stroke-linejoin:round">Hello World!</text>
</svg>
Note the stroke-linejoin:round which is needed to avoid seeing spikes for the W sharp angle.
You can combine filter with the text.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset=utf-8 />
<title>SVG colored patterns via mask</title>
</head>
<body>
<svg viewBox="0 0 300 300" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
<defs>
<filter x="0" y="0" width="1" height="1" id="bg-text">
<feFlood flood-color="white"/>
<feComposite in="SourceGraphic" operator="xor" />
</filter>

<!-- something has already existed -->
<rect fill="red" x="150" y="20" width="100" height="50" />
<circle cx="50" cy="50" r="50" fill="blue"/>
<!-- Text render here -->
<text filter="url(#bg-text)" fill="black" x="20" y="50" font-size="30">text with color</text>
<text fill="black" x="20" y="50" font-size="30">text with color</text>
</svg>
</body>
</html>
this is my favorite hack (not sure it should work). It refer an element that is not yet displayed, and it works pretty well
<svg version="1.1" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" viewBox="0 0 620 40" preserveAspectRatio="xMidYMid meet">
<defs>
<filter x="-0.02" y="0" width="1.04" height="1.1" id="removebackground">
<feFlood flood-color="#00ffff"/>
</filter>
</defs>
<!--Draw the text-->
<use xlink:href="#mygroup" filter="url(#removebackground)" />
<g id="mygroup">
<text id="text1" x="9" y="20" style="text-anchor:start;font-size:14px;">custom text with background</text>
<line x1="200" y1="18" x2="200" y2="36" stroke="#000" stroke-width="5"/>
<line x1="120" y1="27" x2="203" y2="27" stroke="#000" stroke-width="5"/>
</g>
</svg>
For those wondering how to apply padding to a text element when it has a background like in the Robert's answer, do the following:
<svg>
<defs>
<filter x="-0.1" y="-0.1" width="1.2" height="1.2" id="solid">
<feFlood flood-color="#171717"/>
<feComposite in="SourceGraphic" operator="xor" />
</filter>
</defs>
<text filter="url(#solid)" x="20" y="50" font-size="50">Hello</text>
</svg>
In the example above, filter's x and y positions can be used as transform: translate(-10%, -10%) would, and width and height values can be read as 120% and 120%. So we made background 20% bigger, and offsetted it -10%, so background is now 10% bigger on each side of the text.
The previous answers relied on doubling up text and lacked sufficient whitespace.
By using atop and I was able to get the results I wanted.
This example also includes arrows, a common use case for SVG text labels:
<svg viewBox="-105 -40 210 234">
<title>Size Guide</title>
<defs>
<filter x="0" y="0" width="1" height="1" id="solid">

An obvious workaround to the problem of the blur produced by the filter effect is to render the <text> two times: once for the background (with transparent characters) and once for the characters (without a background filter).
For me, this was the only way to make the text readable in Safari.
<svg width="100%" height="100%">
<filter x="0" y="0" width="1" height="1" id="solid">
<feFlood flood-color="yellow" />
</filter>
<g transform="translate(20, 50)" font-size="50">
<text aria-hidden="true" fill="none" filter="url(#solid)">solid background</text>
<text fill="blue">solid background</text>
</g>
</svg>
The aria-hidden="true" attribute is there to prevent screen readers from speaking the text twice, if the user uses a screen reader.
You can add style to your text:
style="-webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);
text-shadow: rgb(255, 255, 255) -2px -2px 0px, rgb(255, 255, 255) -2px 2px 0px,
rgb(255, 255, 255) 2px -2px 0px, rgb(255, 255, 255) 2px 2px 0px;"
White, in this example.
Does not work in IE :)
I have an svg shape which uses a pattern. I want the pattern to NOT scale when i scale the shape.
Here's a fiddle with a minimal example, the bigger circle should show the pattern like the smaller one:
http://jsfiddle.net/cTMrQ/6/
<svg style="position: absolute" width="100%" height="100%" version="1.1" baseProfile="full" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xmlns:ev="http://www.w3.org/2001/xml-events">
<defs>
<pattern id="checkerPattern" patternUnits="userSpaceOnUse" x="0" y="0" width="4" height="4">
<image x="0" y="0" xlink:href="http://inwonderland.at/new/lines.png" width="4" height="4" />
</pattern>
<circle fill="url(#checkerPattern)" id="c" cx="50" cy="50" r="50" />
</defs>
<use x="100" y="100" xlink:href="#c" />
<use x="200" y="100" xlink:href="#c" transform="scale(2)" />
</svg>
In the end the shape will be a complex path and the image in the pattern will be a scan of a piece of paper, so just drawing a bigger circle instead of scaling it won't work.
Update
To clarify what i want, here are two images:
this is what it looks like, no matter what i try, when i scale the shape:
http://inwonderland.at/new/ihave.png
this is what i want:
http://inwonderland.at/new/iwant.png
i want the background image (bitmap image) to always have its natural size.
You can't get what you want using a pattern, the transform always happens after the fill, and you can't just move the pattern fill into a wrapper either. My suggestion is to use a filter and apply the filter on a wrapper - like so:
<svg style="position: absolute" width="100%" height="100%" version="1.1" baseProfile="full" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xmlns:ev="http://www.w3.org/2001/xml-events">
<defs>
<circle fill="url(#checkerPattern)" id="c1" cx="50" cy="50" r="50" />
<filter id="linepattern" x="0%" y="0%" height="100%" width="100%">
<feImage xlink:href="http://inwonderland.at/new/lines.png" result="pattern" width="4" height="4"/>
<feTile/>
<feComposite operator="in" in2="SourceGraphic"/>
</filter>
</defs>
<use filter="url(#linepattern)" x="100" y="100" xlink:href="#c1" />
<use filter="url(#linepattern)" x="200" y="100" xlink:href="#c1" transform="scale(2)" />
<g filter="url(#linepattern)">
<use x="50" y="100" xlink:href="#c1" transform="scale(2)" />
</g>
</svg>
Using viewport
1:1 no zoom
<svg width="800" height="400" viewBox="0 0 800 400">
2:1 zoom double size
<svg width="800" height="400" viewBox="0 0 400 200">
The following elements can use the viewBox attribute
<svg>
<symbol>
<image>
<marker>
<pattern>
<view>
viewbox is fully animatable; and you can zoom into any center point.
<animate attributeName="viewBox" begin="1s" dur="1s"
values="0 0 600 400; 250 180 300 200" fill="freeze" />
Transform a parent tag
Yes an SVG can be a child element but more commonly shapes made with multible tags are placed inside a group tag.
Transform scale can be used with tags which are parents IE the group tag.
<g transform="scale(1.5)">
/* draw your shape inside the g tag */
<use x="100" y="100" xlink:href="#c" />
<use x="200" y="100" xlink:href="#c" />
</g>
So using your above example scale the shape in a parent tag.
Update
To scale image but not patterns in other words move patterns, or icons, on background image that scales.
<g transform="scale(2)">
/* draw your shape inside the g tag */
<use x="100" y="100" xlink:href="#c" transform="scale(.5)" />
<use x="200" y="100" xlink:href="#c" transform="scale(.5)"/>
</g>
Update full svg
I had to move things around a bit, One full size, (lets call it a map), with an overlay of 1 half size map in the upper left corner. setting the full screen to render between 0 and max of 600. Setting a viewport the same but with the width set to 300 scales it down. I do need to double the radius for this example of scaling.
<svg viewBox="0 0 600 600" style="position: absolute" width="100%" height="100%" version="1.1" baseProfile="full"
xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xmlns:ev="http://www.w3.org/2001/xml-events">

</pattern>
<circle fill="url(#checkerPattern)" id="c" cx="50" cy="50" r="50" />
<circle fill="url(#checkerPattern)" id="c2" cx="50" cy="50" r="100" />
</defs>
<use x="100" y="100" xlink:href="#c" transform="scale(.5)"/>
<use x="200" y="100" xlink:href="#c" transform="scale(1)"/>
<rect width="600" height="600" style="fill: none; stroke: black;" />
<svg viewBox="0 0 600 600" width="300" height="300" x="300">
<use x="100" y="100" xlink:href="#c2" transform="scale(.5)"/>
<use x="200" y="100" xlink:href="#c2" transform="scale(1)"/>
<rect width="600" height="600" style="fill: none; stroke: black;" />
</svg>
</svg>
This example is scaled using the same circle pattern. The radius does not need to be changed here because the location is not in the tag being scaled. I'm making use of svg tags here but other tags can be used.
