Why doesn't this SVG display? - html
I'm working on a project that uses svg. I generate this svg code thanks to an ocaml library:
<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:l="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" version="1.1" width="161.8mm" height="100mm" viewBox="0 0 161.8 100" color-profile="auto" color-interpolation="linearRGB" color-interpolation-filters="linearRGB">
<g fill="none" stroke-miterlimit="9.98123" transform="matrix(100 0 0 -100 -0 100)">
<defs>
<path id="i1" d="M0 0L1.618 0L1.618 1L0 1Z"/>
</defs>
<use l:href="#i1" fill="#50C878"/>
</g>
</svg>
When I use gthumb or GIMP to display the svg, it prints the correct green square. However, when I include this block of code in Chromium or Firefox, the block appears in the html tree but nothing is display. This is the first time I use svg: after several researches on Google, I can't find anything....
Does someone know why it doesn't work ?
Edit
Solve with the answer:
<use xlink:href="#i1">

How do you add a link inside an SVG image file?
I'm having trouble trying to place a clickable link within my SVG image. I've read a few articles but I still cannot seem to get the hang of it, I would greatly appreciate if anyone could guide me on what I may be doing wrong & how I can resolve the issue with my code, Thank you. I'll add a snippet below: <div class="apps"> <svg id="app-button" height="24px" viewBox="0 0 24 24" width="24px" fill="#000000"> <path d="M0 0h24v24H0V0z" fill="none" /> <path d="M4 8h4V4H4v4zm6 12h4v-4h-4v4zm-6 0h4v-4H4v4zm0 -6h4v-4H4v4zm6 0h4v-4h-4v4zm6-10v4h4V4h-4zm-6 4h4V4h- 4v4zm6 6h4v-4h-4v4zm0 6h4v-4h-4v4z" /> </div>
Links can be placed inside an svg element by use of the xlink namespace, see https://www.w3.org/wiki/SVG_Links. For the example in the question you could use something like this, <div class="apps"> <svg id="app-button" height="24px" viewBox="0 0 24 24" width="24px" fill="#000000" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"> <a xlink:href="http://localhost"> <path d="M0 0h24v24H0V0z" fill="none" /> <path d="M4 8h4V4H4v4zm6 12h4v-4h-4v4zm-6 0h4v-4H4v4zm0 -6h4v-4H4v4zm6 0h4v-4h-4v4zm6-10v4h4V4h-4zm-6 4h4V4h- 4v4zm6 6h4v-4h-4v4zm0 6h4v-4h-4v4z" /> </a> </svg> </div> By placing a reference to the xlink namespace in the svg element (xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink") we can use an anchor element like <a xlink:href="...">...</a> around whatever part of the svg image we wish to make clickable. In this case only the paths are clickable, not the entire svg viewbox as would be the case if we wrapped the whole <svg>...</svg> in a standard html anchor element.
there's no need to add link to svg just enclose them inside anchor tag <a href="somelink.com"> <svg></svg> </a>
Change color of part of Material Icon
I would like to change only part of the color of Material icons (from google) like in the image. In the image it only shows the bottom bar changing color, not the entire A. I went to several questions that only showed how to change the entire color of the materialize icon. I realize that I can use svg, and I can break the image up into different paths and then specify the color of each of them as stated in jdnz's answer. <svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="24" height="24"> <path d="M5 17v2h14v-2z" fill="#00FFFF"/> <path d="M12 5.98L13.87 11h-3.74zM9.5 12.8h5l.9 2.2h2.1L12.75 4h-1.5L6.5 15h2.1z"/> <path d="M0 0h24v24H0z" fill="none"/> </svg> However, I have several images, and I don't want to create many svg's.
If you use svg you can break the image up into different paths and then specify the color of each of them. <svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="24" height="24"> <path d="M5 17v2h14v-2z" fill="#00FFFF"/> <path d="M12 5.98L13.87 11h-3.74zM9.5 12.8h5l.9 2.2h2.1L12.75 4h-1.5L6.5 15h2.1z"/> <path d="M0 0h24v24H0z" fill="none"/> </svg>
svg not sharp, but blurry
For whatever reason these svg files, seems blurry, and not 100% sharp in all browsers. These are svg files, and are enclosed within elements that are scaled to pixels, in other words using px and not % - hence no browser bitmap errors.
Any idea as to why this is happening?
This is one of the svg files;

If you want your SVG to be at its sharpest, then design it so that its shapes - especially the horizontal and vertical parts of the shapes - are on pixel boundaries. For example, compare the following two examples: <svg width="50" height="50"> <rect x="9.5" y="9.5" width="31" height="31"/> </svg> <svg width="50" height="50"> <rect x="10" y="10" width="30" height="30"/> </svg> Here's what this looks like at 4X enlargement. Any time your shape passes through the middle of pixels, you will get grey pixels due to the anti-aliasing that 2D renderers use.
The response used a slightly modified code #Paul LeBeau You can use the SVG attribute - shape-rendering =" crispEdges " to disable browser anti-aliasing. https://developer.mozilla.org/ru/docs/Web/SVG/Attribute/shape-rendering crispEdges Indicates that the user agent shall attempt to emphasize the contrast between clean edges of artwork over rendering speed and geometric precision. To achieve crisp edges, the user agent might turn off anti-aliasing for all lines and curves or possibly just for straight lines which are close to vertical or horizontal. Also, the user agent might adjust line positions and line widths to align edges with device pixels. <svg width="50" height="50"> <rect x="9.5" y="9.5" width="31" height="31" shape-rendering="crispEdges"/> </svg> <svg width="50" height="50"> <rect x="10" y="10" width="30" height="30"/> </svg> The image is increased 4 times No gray pixels are observed. Update 2019 by comments There is no universal, 100% solution to the pixelation problem. Since the rendering depends on the installed operating system, its settings, the video card and which browser is used. You can use an integrated approach made up of all the answers of this topic: Use integer svg image coordinate values by answer #Paul LeBeau If you take a finished image with fractional values, you can process it with SVG optimizer Set the integer value of viewBox by answer #AKX Use the attribute shape-rendering ="crispEdges" If a design change is possible, avoid contrasting border colors. For example, use a dark gray color instead of a black and white combination or use shades of gray instead of a pure white background.
I tried the SVG on a page and it doesn't look really blurry to me. However, you could try editing the viewbox to have an integer size -- i.e. turn viewBox="0 0 361.5 192.5" into viewBox="0 0 362 193" -- that might make a difference.
it might be caused by use of borders and shadows in creation of the svg. I avoid those myself as they are sometimes blurry. Shadow if needed can be created as another path with transparency and offset.
Chrome v49 letter-spacing in SVG with transform matrix
Chrome v49 broke letter-spacings in SVG when used in combination with matrix transformation and translations: Living example: https://jsfiddle.net/75fpn6de/6/ SVG: <svg height="300px" version="1.1" width="100%" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"> <g transform="matrix(0.20695652173913043,0,0,0.20695652173913043,0,10.881739130434767)"> <svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xmlns:ev="http://www.w3.org/2001/xml-events" version="1.1" viewBox="0 0 2500 2794" width="2500" height="2794"> <g transform="translate(1436.5 1087) rotate(0)"> <text xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" fill="#ed7373" y="237" style="font-family: 'Great Vibes';" font-size="237" letter-spacing="0.1em" text-anchor="middle">Some text</text> </g> </svg> </g> </svg> CSS: #import url(https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Great+Vibes); Am I doing anything wrong here (like breaking some specs) and Chrome got more "restrictive" or is it a newly introduced bug in Chrome? FYI: The example is (obviously) only a small part of a bigger SVG which is dynamically generated by the server and I can't just change the nesting and the usage of the transform matrix & translate functions.
I had the very same issue, and even if I couldn't find anything about this issue in the changelog, it seems it has been fixed in Chrome 50.

Look on this updated jsFiddle: https://jsfiddle.net/qqzox761/1/ I removed width and height from your svg and changed viewBox a little bit. Now with this code of svg you can set size in css.
Change the viewbox attribute, here: <svg ... viewBox="0 0 60 60" ... It means it is a square SVG that starts at 0, 0 and have a size of 60 on each side. Changing this will only affect the aspect ratio of SVG view, you can assign its width more accurately in pixels or percent using CSS.
As noted by mwl, you need to delete the width and height from <svg>. The program you used to create the graphic adds data to viewbox automatically so while mwl modified it, it looks like you had extra white space when you saved the file. I also recreated your fiddle here but without the white space. The important thing to remember about SVG is that it's all about scaling which means, in part, that preserving the aspect ratio is more important than pixel dimensions. This is a great article by Amelia Bellany-Royds on CSS-Tricks if you want more information.
