Set the stroke size fixed in svg
Posted on August 11, 2022
TIL this little attribute to keep the stroke size or width fixed no matter the scale factor an SVG element can have:
<svg viewBox="0 0 100 100">
<g transform="scale(10)">
<rect vector-effect="non-scaling-stroke" x="0" y="0" width="100" height="100" fill="none" stroke="#88CE02" stroke-width="2"/>
</g>
</svg>
The magic here is the vector-effect="non-scaling-stroke"
that keeps in this case the stroke size to 2px even though the group that contains this rect is scaled by 10.
This attribute can affect other visual aspect, here the reference.
