SVGSVGElement: width property

Baseline Widely available

This feature is well established and works across many devices and browser versions. It’s been available across browsers since July 2015.

The width read-only property of the SVGSVGElement interface describes the horizontal size of element as an SVGAnimatedLength. It reflects the <svg> element's width attribute, which may not be the SVG's rendered width.

The CSS width property takes precedence over the <svg> element's width attribute, so the value may not reflect the element's appearance. If both the viewBox and width attributes are omitted, the width property reflects that actual width.

Value

An SVGAnimatedLength.

Example

js
const svg = document.querySelector("svg");
const inlineSize = svg.width;
console.dir(inlineSize.baseVal.value); // the `width` value
