How can I cut text from a shape in SVG? - javascript

I have an SVG file that looks like below:
Is there a way to make the text transparent? That is, instead of a fill color I want to cut out the layers and show what's in the background (of the SVG i.e. whatever lies underneath the SVG). In other words, make the intersection of the path & text to be transparent?
Contents of the SVG file:
<svg width="36.087" height="34.314" viewBox="0 0 36.087 34.313999" x="1190.56" y="753.5780000000001">
<path fill="#63a95c" d="M36.087 13.107l-13.305-.66L18.047 0l-4.742 12.446L0 13.106l10.377 8.352L6.89 34.314l11.157-7.285 11.14 7.284-3.475-12.856" fill-rule="evenodd"/>
<text font-size="10px" x="10.498" y="23.484" fill="#ffffff" fill-opacity="1" font-family="OpenSans-Bold">8.5</text>
</svg>
I tried changing the transparency of the text element, but that only affects the text. The text inside the SVG is variable is populated dynamically so I can't "pre-process" the SVG file. Is there a way perhaps using evenodd fill or something similar to create an "exclusion" for intersection? Is it possible using one of the SVG JS libraries such as snap.svg or svg.js?
Edit:
The final SVG should look like this:
The SVG code posted above is for the star and the text. The final SVG should have the background color showing through the text while retaining the outer shape of the star.

Create a mask, put the text in it via a text element and then use the mask on the shape you want to clip a hole in. Something like this...
head, body {
width:100%;
height:100%;
}
<svg width="100%" height="100%" viewBox="0 0 200 200">
<defs>
<mask id="sample" maskUnits="userSpaceOnUse">
<rect width="100%" height="100%" fill="white"/>
<text x="12" y="23" font-size="10" font-family="Impact">9.0</text>
</mask>
</defs>
<path fill="#63a95c" d="M36.087 13.107l-13.305-.66L18.047 0l-4.742 12.446L0 13.106l10.377 8.352L6.89 34.314l11.157-7.285 11.14 7.284-3.475-12.856" fill-rule="evenodd" mask="url(#sample)"/>

Centering icon inside SVG circle chart

I'm trying to put an icon inside an SVG circular graph so that it will display like this: SVG graph example.
No matter what I do, there's always a slight gap between one side of the inner icon and the SVG path that displays like this. I think the issue has to do w/the fact that the arc degree for the SVG circular graph isn't a perfect circle
Here's everything I've already tried:
Created a static png of the inner icon image so that it wasn't a perfect circle + then wrapped the SVG around it
Created SVG in illustrator with the inner icon as a png with two outer paths: one for the grey fill all around and one for the green fill to represent 50%. When I export the file, the d parameter is displaying based on coordinates, not percentages.
<path d="M82,153.53C122.23,153.41,153.2,121,153.46,82,153.69,43.3,122.59,10.94,82,10.49"
fill="none" stroke="#7aef93"
stroke-miterlimit="10" stroke-width="15" />
I started playing around w/this on CodePen, but didn't get very far.
Is this even possible to achieve? I'd really appreciate any and all help/feedback!
This is a fast solution, I don't know is it good. You should add class circle to the second svg like this:
<svg class="circle" width="120" height="120" viewBox="0 0 120 120" fill="none" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"
xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">
<circle cx="60" cy="60" r="59" fill="#F07C7C" stroke="#D0CFCF" stroke-width="2"/>
<rect x="22" y="22" width="75" height="75" fill="url(#pattern2)"/>
<defs>
<pattern id="pattern2" patternContentUnits="objectBoundingBox" width="1" height="1">
<use xlink:href="#image2" transform="scale(0.00390625)"/>

And then you should add this css:
.circle {
position: absolute;
top: 25px;
left: calc(50% - 108px);
}
This should make a second svg inside first svg.

Keeping parts of an SVG at fixed size

Essentially I needed to make the center "cut-out" keep a fixed shape and size regardless of vector scale. Is there a way to achieve this?
<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="100%" height="100%" preserveAspectRatio="none" style="fill-rule:evenodd;" viewBox="0 0 2802 2657">
<path d="M290 4c-95,733 -191,1466 -286,2200 760,150 1520,300 2279,450 172,-223 343,-446 515,-669 -114,-572 -229,-1144 -343,-1716 -722,-88 -1444,-176 -2165,-264zm696 1027c-103,111 -205,222 -308,333 94,111 188,222 282,333 342,-205 684,-410 1026,-616 -333,-17 -667,-34 -1000,-51z"/>
</svg>
So I managed to do something after some editing to your SVG.
To achieve what you're asking you'll need to use / have :
- the SVG mask attribute
- A very large shape for the mask ( as much large as the max scale you want to use on the visible shape )
- The shape that you want to resize
- Resize the shape with transforms
Your SVG should looks like the following
<svg>
<defs>
<mask id="theMask">
<path fill="#ffffff" d=""/>
</mask>
</defs>
<g mask="url(#theMask)">
<path fill="#ffffff" id="shapetoresize" d=""/>
</g>
</svg>
I posted a pen as a "Proof of concept"
Feel free to fork it and use it to achieve what you're trying to do.
Codepen
note: as pointed out by #thioutp , The JS is only for demo purposes, you don't need GSAP to achieve this.

SVG Hover State with Multiple Elements

Good afternoon everyone,
I'm defining an SVG on my page with the following defs.
<svg width="0" height="0">
<defs>
<g id="stroke-hexagon">
<polygon fill="#002663" stroke="#FFFFFF" stroke-width="6" stroke-miterlimit="12" points="57.8,185 5.8,95 57.8,5 161.8,5 213.8,95 161.8,185 "/>
</g>
<g id="hexagon">
<polygon fill="#006890" points="52,180 0,90 52,0 156,0 208,90 156,180 "/>
</g>
</defs>
</svg>
...and implementing it later in the HTML using this:
<svg width="208px" height="180px" viewBox="0 0 208 180" >
<use xlink:href="#hexagon"></use>
<text class="faicon" x="50%" y="70px" fill="white" font-size="80px" text-anchor="middle">&#xf040</text>
<text text-anchor="middle" x="50%" y="70%" fill="white">Logo Here</text>
</svg>
Works totally fine. I am also able to style the polygon's fill with simple CSS. Looks like this:
#hexagon:hover polygon {
fill:#990000;
}
The hover effect fails, however, whenever the mouse leaves the polygon and instead hovers over either of the 'text' elements within the svg. Is there a way to define a CSS rule that prevents this behavior. Or, would it be better (easier) to change the attribute using JS / jQuery?
Thanks!
Your texts are rendered on top of your polygon and are therefore intercepting mouse events. You should set up a css rule like
text {
pointer-events: none;
}
This will prevent the text from becoming a target of mouse events which should give you the desired hover effect for the polygon.

Color SVG image with CSS

Is there a way I can apply colors to SVG image as a whole? not going down to each path and circle and line I have and doing it one by one?
I tried to group my svg elements with
<g class="myImage">
and in the myImage class i put fill:red to make it apply to all the elements in that group, but that doesnt work!!
How can I make it so I can only apply a color once and it goes to the whole image or elements in a group?
--added code
This is my SVG file (this is just a sample, i know the circle repeats 3 times)
<?xml version="1.0" standalone="no"?>
<?xml-stylesheet href="../css/logo.css" type="text/css"?>
<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" version="1.1">
<g class="logo">
<circle cx="50%" cy="50%" r="35%"/>
<circle cx="50%" cy="50%" r="35%"/>
<circle cx="50%" cy="50%" r="35%"/>
</g>
</svg>
and in my logo.css file i have a class
.logo {
fill:red;
}
Hope this helps
You're doing it right. The fill should inherit from the <g> element and all the circles will be red, one on top of another. Firefox displays a big red circle.

How to extend the text along the entire textPath in SVG

How do I make the text on a path (see screenshot) extend so that it follows the entire textPath?
I have tried using the method attribute value stretch but it doesn't work like I expect - it doesn't stretch the text along the path.
Is there a way to make this work in all browsers?
The way to spread out the text over the entire textPath is to use the textLength attribute. Also see this other question for how to compute a good value for textLength. Here's how to do it:
<svg viewBox="0 0 500 300" version="1.1">
<defs>
<path id="s3" d="M 10,90 Q 100,15 200,70" />
</defs>
<text font-size="20">
<textPath xlink:href="#s3" textLength="205">
Short text
</textPath>
</text>
<use xlink:href="#s3" fill="none" stroke="black" stroke-width="1"/>
</svg>
Viewable example: http://jsfiddle.net/zkZ2n/
Here's the bugreport for Firefox not supporting textLength: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=569722
