This feature is well established and works across many devices and browser versions. It’s been available across browsers since January 2020.

The baseVal property of the SVGAnimatedEnumeration interface contains the initial value of an SVG enumeration.

Examples

Considering this snippet with a <clipPath> element: Its clipPathUnits is associated with a SVGAnimatedEnumeration object.

html
<svg viewBox="0 0 100 100" width="200" height="200">
  <clipPath id="clip1" clipPathUnits="userSpaceOnUse">
    <circle cx="50" cy="50" r="35" />
  </clipPath>

  <!-- Some reference rect to materialized to clip path -->
  <rect id="r1" x="0" y="0" width="45" height="45" />
</svg>

This snippet gets the element, and logs the baseVal of the SVGClipPathElement.clipPathUnits property.

js
const clipPathElt = document.getElementById("clip1");
console.log(clipPathElt.clipPathUnits.baseVal); // Logs 1 that correspond to userSpaceOnUse
