Use -background none to make sure any transparent parts of the SVG stay transparent and not get filled with white. As ImageMagick only works with raster images you need … Read more
translate(tx, ty) can be written as the matrix: 1 0 tx 0 1 ty 0 0 1 scale(sx, sy) can be written as the matrix: sx 0 0 0 sy 0 0 0 1 rotate(a) can be written as the matrix: cos(a) -sin(a) 0 sin(a) cos(a) 0 0 0 1 rotate(a, cx, cy) is the … Read more
All dimensions in a path tag are in user units. You cannot specify absolute units within a path tag, which is why the path in the middle square does not render. The simplest way I have found is to set the units using viewbox: Set the width & height in inches. Then set the viewbox … Read more
SVGZ is just a gzipped SVG, see this. Note: Not all browser support SVGZ. Your HTTP server may probably compresses its response with deflate, which have the same performance.

The width and height is never going to change even when the element is rotated. It cannot be used for HTML DOM Elements. getBoundingClientRect is common … Read more
You should be able to use the fill-rule: evenodd(default) property to achieve this effect, if you want to prevent the fill of the rectangle from painting where the circle is. See this example from the SVG specification: The key point is draw outer shape and inner shapes(holes) in different direction (clockwise vs anti-clockwise). Draw the … Read more
%config InlineBackend.figure_formats = [‘svg’] does the trick. A minimal example is: %config InlineBackend.figure_formats = [‘svg’] import matplotlib.pyplot as plt %matplotlib inline plt.plot()
Edit: There is an attribute you can add to your rect to get exactly this behavior: vector-effect=”non-scaling-stroke” This was wrong: This will work if you apply the transform directly to the shape, not the group it is in. Of course, if you wanted to group several items and scale them all together, that approach won’t … Read more
Matplotlibs SVG text rendering can be configured either in the matplotlibrc or in code. From Customizing Matplotlib with style sheets and rcParams: #svg.fonttype : ‘path’ # How to handle SVG fonts: # ‘none’: Assume fonts are installed on the machine where the SVG will be viewed. # ‘path’: Embed characters as paths — supported by … Read more
