Value | <length> | <percentage> |
---|---|
Default value | 0 |
Animatable | Yes |
Note:
The x-axis coordinate of the <svg>
can also be defined with the x
geometry property. If set in CSS, the x
property value overrides the x
attribute value.
<text>
For <text>
, if it contains a single value, x
defines the x coordinate where the content text position must be placed. The content text position is usually a point on the baseline of the first line of text. The exact content text position is influenced by other properties, such as text-anchor
or direction
.
If it contains multiple values, x
defines the x coordinate of each individual glyph from the text. If there are fewer values than glyphs, the remaining glyphs are placed in line with the last positioned glyph. If there are more values than glyphs, the extra values are ignored.

<use>
For <use>
, x
defines the x coordinate of the upper left corner of the referenced element.
Value | <length> | <percentage> |
---|---|
Default value | 0 |
Animatable | Yes |
Note:
Declaring a <length>
or <percentage>
value in CSS using the x
geometry property overrides the x-axis coordinate of the <use>
set by the x
attribute in some browsers.
This behavior is non-standard, deprecated, and likely to be removed in future browser versions.
Examples
This example contains three <rect>
elements, each with an x
value smaller than the previous value.
<svg viewBox="0 0 300 100" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
<rect x="220" y="20" width="60" height="60" fill="red" />
