SVG length interface

The SVGLength interface correspond to the <length> basic data type.

An SVGLength object can be designated as read only, which means that attempts to modify the object will result in an exception being thrown.

<svg height="200" onload="start();" version="1.1" width="200" xmlns="https://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
  <script type="text/javascript"><![CDATA[

Constants

Name Value Description
SVG_LENGTHTYPE_UNKNOWN 0 The unit type is not one of predefined unit types. It is invalid to attempt to define a new value of this type or to attempt to switch an existing value to this type.
SVG_LENGTHTYPE_NUMBER 1 No unit type was provided (i.e., a unitless value was specified), which indicates a value in user units.
SVG_LENGTHTYPE_PERCENTAGE 2 A percentage value was specified.
SVG_LENGTHTYPE_EMS 3 A value was specified using the em units defined in CSS2.
SVG_LENGTHTYPE_EXS 4 A value was specified using the ex units defined in CSS2.
SVG_LENGTHTYPE_PX 5 A value was specified using the px units defined in CSS2.
SVG_LENGTHTYPE_CM 6 A value was specified using the cm units defined in CSS2.
SVG_LENGTHTYPE_MM 7 A value was specified using the mm units defined in CSS2.
SVG_LENGTHTYPE_IN 8 A value was specified using the in units defined in CSS2.
SVG_LENGTHTYPE_PT 9 A value was specified using the pt units defined in CSS2.
SVG_LENGTHTYPE_PC 10 A value was specified using the pc units defined in CSS2.

Properties

Name Type Description
unitType unsigned short The type of the value as specified by one of the SVG_LENGTHTYPE_* constants defined on this interface.
value float

The value as a floating point value, in user units. Setting this attribute will cause valueInSpecifiedUnits and valueAsString to be updated automatically to reflect this setting.

Exceptions on setting: a DOMException with code NO_MODIFICATION_ALLOWED_ERR is raised when the length corresponds to a read only attribute or when the object itself is read only.

valueInSpecifiedUnits float

The value as a floating point value, in the units expressed by unitType. Setting this attribute will cause value and valueAsString to be updated automatically to reflect this setting.

Exceptions on setting: a DOMException with code NO_MODIFICATION_ALLOWED_ERR is raised when the length corresponds to a read only attribute or when the object itself is read only.

valueAsString DOMString

The value as a string value, in the units expressed by unitType. Setting this attribute will cause value, valueInSpecifiedUnits and unitType to be updated automatically to reflect this setting.

Exceptions on setting:

  • a DOMException with code SYNTAX_ERR is raised if the assigned string cannot be parsed as a valid <length>.
  • a DOMException with code NO_MODIFICATION_ALLOWED_ERR is raised when the length corresponds to a read only attribute or when the object itself is read only.

Methods

Name & Arguments Return Description
newValueSpecifiedUnits(in unsigned short unitType, in float valueInSpecifiedUnits) void

Reset the value as a number with an associated unitType, thereby replacing the values for all of the attributes on the object.

Exceptions:

  • a DOMException with code NOT_SUPPORTED_ERR is raised if unitType is SVG_LENGTHTYPE_UNKNOWN or not a valid unit type constant (one of the other SVG_LENGTHTYPE_* constants defined on this interface).
  • a DOMException with code NO_MODIFICATION_ALLOWED_ERR is raised when the length corresponds to a read only attribute or when the object itself is read only.
convertToSpecifiedUnits(in unsigned short unitType) void Preserve the same underlying stored value, but reset the stored unit identifier to the given unitType. Object attributes unitType, valueInSpecifiedUnits and valueAsString might be modified as a result of this method. For example, if the original value were "0.5cm" and the method was invoked to convert to millimeters, then the unitType would be changed to SVG_LENGTHTYPE_MM, valueInSpecifiedUnits would be changed to the numeric value 5 and valueAsString would be changed to "5mm".
