How to make SVG responsive, with fixed elements? - javascript

The size of some UI elements are fixed; the size of other elements is responsive to the size of the container.
For example, a graph's text and legend is normally fixed size, but its axes' sizes are normally responsive.
<svg font-size="14" height="200" width="100%" shape-rendering="crispEdges">
<rect x="30" y="10" width="120" height="30" stroke="black" fill-opacity="0"></rect>
<text color="black" x="32" y="24">Legend</text>
</svg>
<div style="font-size: 14px; height:200px; position:relative; width:100%">
<div style="position:absolute; top:10px; left:30px; width: 116px; height: 26px; border: 1px solid black; padding: 2px">
Legend
</div>
<div style="position:absolute; top:5px; left:5px; bottom: 5px; right:5px; border-left: 1px solid black; border-bottom: 1px solid black">
</div>
</div>
As far as I can tell, SVGs cannot do this. I can use JS and listen to the window resize event, though this event is not always fired, e.g. when printing.
Is is possible to have fixed and responsive elements in an browser SVG?

From what I'm getting out of your question, listening for a resize event is indeed not going to do the cut for printing. So what you need to do is listen for a print request, and run your resize code from it:
window.addEventListener("beforeprint", beforePrint);
window.addEventListener("afterprint", afterPrint);
if (window.matchMedia) {
var mediaQueryList = window.matchMedia('print');
mediaQueryList.addListener(function(mql) {
if (mql.matches) {
beforePrint();
} else {
afterPrint();
}
});
}
function beforePrint() {
//Resize for printing
}
function afterPrint() {
//Resize again for after printing
}
This is taken from this article. Please read over it for a more detailed description, limitations, and other possible work-arounds.
For any other situations where you need to resize but the window resize event isn't sufficient, there's usually at least a semi-simple work-around. JavaScript is your only option for something as complex as sorting and sizing items in a graph.

Trasparent text in an html a-href button with a threejs animation in background [duplicate]

Is there any way to make a transparent text cut out of a background effect like the one in the following image, with CSS?
It would be sad to lose all precious SEO because of images replacing text.
I first thought of shadows but I can't figure anything out...
The image is the site background, an absolute positioned <img> tag
It's possible with css3 but it's not supported in all browsers
With background-clip: text; you can use a background for the text, but you will have to align it with the background of the page
body {
background: url(http://www.color-hex.com/palettes/26323.png) repeat;
margin:10px;
}
h1 {
background-color:#fff;
overflow:hidden;
display:inline-block;
padding:10px;
font-weight:bold;
font-family:arial;
color:transparent;
font-size:200px;
}
span {
background: url(http://www.color-hex.com/palettes/26323.png) -20px -20px repeat;
-webkit-text-fill-color: transparent;
-webkit-background-clip: text;
display:block;
}
<h1><span>ABCDEFGHIKJ</span></h1>
http://jsfiddle.net/JGPuZ/1337/
Automatic Alignment
With a little javascript you can align the background automatically:
$(document).ready(function(){
//Position of the header in the webpage
var position = $("h1").position();
var padding = 10; //Padding set to the header
var left = position.left + padding;
var top = position.top + padding;
$("h1").find("span").css("background-position","-"+left+"px -"+top+"px");
});
body {
background: url(http://www.color-hex.com/palettes/26323.png) repeat;
margin:10px;
}
h1 {
background-color:#fff;
overflow:hidden;
display:inline-block;
padding:10px;
font-weight:bold;
font-family:arial;
color:transparent;
font-size:200px;
}
span {
background: url(http://www.color-hex.com/palettes/26323.png) -20px -20px repeat;
-webkit-text-fill-color: transparent;
-webkit-background-clip: text;

Although this is possible with CSS, a better approach would be to use an inline SVG with SVG masking. This approach has some advantages over CSS :
Much better browser support: IE10+, chrome, Firefox, safari...
This doesn't impact SEO as spiders can crawl SVG content (google indexes SVG content since 2010)
CodePen Demo : SVG text mask
body,html{height:100%;margin:0;padding:0;}
body{
background:url('https://farm9.staticflickr.com/8760/17195790401_94fcf60556_c.jpg');
background-size:cover;
background-attachment:fixed;
}
svg{width:100%;}
<svg viewbox="0 0 100 60">
<defs>
<mask id="mask" x="0" y="0" width="100" height="50">
<rect x="0" y="0" width="100" height="40" fill="#fff"/>
<text text-anchor="middle" x="50" y="18" dy="1">SVG</text>
<text text-anchor="middle" x="50" y="30" dy="1">Text mask</text>
</mask>
</defs>
<rect x="5" y="5" width="90" height="30" mask="url(#mask)" fill-opacity="0.5"/>
</svg>
If you aim on making the text selectable and searchable, you need to include it outside the <defs> tag. The following example shows a way to do that keeping the transparent text with the <use> tag:
body,html{height:100%;margin:0;padding:0;}
body{
background:url('https://farm9.staticflickr.com/8760/17195790401_94fcf60556_c.jpg');
background-size:cover;
background-attachment:fixed;
}
svg{width:100%;}
<svg viewbox="0 0 100 60">
<defs>
<g id="text">
<text text-anchor="middle" x="50" y="18" dy="1">SVG</text>
<text text-anchor="middle" x="50" y="30" dy="1">Text mask</text>
</g>
<mask id="mask" x="0" y="0" width="100" height="50">
<rect x="0" y="0" width="100" height="40" fill="#fff"/>
<use xlink:href="#text" />
</mask>
</defs>
<rect x="5" y="5" width="90" height="30" mask="url(#mask)" fill-opacity="0.5"/>
<use xlink:href="#text" mask="url(#mask)" />
</svg>
There is a simple way to do this with just CSS:
background: black;
color: white;
mix-blend-mode: multiply;
for transparent text on a black background, or
background: white;
color: black;
mix-blend-mode: screen;
for transparent text on a white background.
Put these styles on your text element with whichever background you want behind it.
Example CodePen
Read up on mix-blend-mode and experiment with it to use different colours.
Caveats:
For this to work in chrome, you also need to explicitly set a background colour on the html element.
This works on basically all modern browsers except IE.
It is possible, but so far only with Webkit based browsers (Chrome, Safari, Rockmelt, anything based on the Chromium project.)
The trick is to have an element within the white one that has the same background as the body, then use -webkit- background-clip: text; on the inner element which basically means "don't extend the background beyond the text" and use transparent text.

just put that css

overflow: hidden;
margin: 0;
padding-right: 10%;

text-transform: uppercase;

background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, .85);
/* that css is the main think (mix-blend-mode: lighten;)*/
mix-blend-mode: lighten;
}
I just discovered a new way to do this while messing around, I'm not entirely sure how it works ( if someone else wants to explain please do ).
It seems to work very well, and requires no double backgrounds or JavaScript.
Here's the code:
JSFIDDLE
body {
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
}
div {
background: url(http://www.color-hex.com/palettes/26323.png) repeat;
width: 100vw;
height: 100vh;
}
body::before {
content: '$ALPHABET';
left: 0;
top: 0;
position: absolute;
color: #222;
background-color: #fff;
padding: 1rem;
font-family: Arial;
z-index: 1;
mix-blend-mode: screen;
font-weight: 800;
font-size: 3rem;
letter-spacing: 1rem;
}
<div></div>
In the near future we can use element() to achieve this
The element() function allows an author to use an element in the document as an image. As the referenced element changes appearance, the image changes as well ref
The trick is to create a common div with text then use element() combined with mask.
Here is a basic example that works only on the latest version Firefox for now.
#text {
font-size:35px;
font-weight:bold;
color:#000;
font-family:sans-serif;
text-transform: uppercase;
white-space:nowrap;
/* we hide it */
position:fixed;
right:200vw;
bottom:200vh
}
body {
background:url(https://picsum.photos/id/1018/800/800) center/cover;
}
.main {
margin:50px;
height:100px;
background:red;
-webkit-mask:
-moz-element(#text) center/contain no-repeat, /* this behave like a background-image*/
linear-gradient(#fff 0 0);
mask-composite:exclude;
}
<div id="text">
You can put your text here
</div>
<div class="main">
</div>
It will produce the following:
It's reponsive since we rely on basic background properties and we can easily update the text using basic CSS.
We can consider any kind of content and also create patterns:
#text {
font-size:30px;
font-weight:bold;
color:#000;
font-family:sans-serif;
text-transform: uppercase;
white-space:nowrap;
padding:20px;
/* we hide it */
position:fixed;
right:200vw;
bottom:200vh
}
#text span {
font-family:cursive;
font-size:35px;
}
body {
background:url(https://picsum.photos/id/1018/800/800) center/cover;
}
.main {
margin:50px;
height:100px;
background:red;
-webkit-mask:
-moz-element(#text) 0 0/20% auto, /* this behave like a background-image*/
linear-gradient(#fff 0 0);
mask-composite:exclude;
}
<div id="text">
Your <span>text</span> here 👍
</div>
<div class="main">
</div>
And why not some animation to create an infinite scrolling text:
#text {
font-size:30px;
font-weight:bold;
color:#000;
font-family:sans-serif;
text-transform: uppercase;
white-space:nowrap;
padding:20px 5px;
/* we hide it */
position:fixed;
right:200vw;
bottom:200vh
}
body {
background:url(https://picsum.photos/id/1018/800/800) center/cover;
}
.main {
margin:50px;
height:100px;
padding-right:calc(50% - 50px);
background:red;
-webkit-mask:
-moz-element(#text) 0 50%/200% auto content-box, /* this behave like a background-image*/
linear-gradient(#fff 0 0);
mask-composite:exclude;
animation:m 5s linear infinite;
}
#keyframes m{
to {-webkit-mask-position:200% 50%}
}
<div id="text">
Srolling repeating text here
</div>
<div class="main">
</div>
I guess you could achieve something like that using background-clip, but I haven't tested that yet.
See this example:
http://www.css3.info/wp-content/uploads/2008/03/webkit-backgroundcliptext_color.html
(Webkit only, I don't know yet how to change the black background to a white one)
You can use an inverted / negative / reverse font and apply it with the font-face="…" CSS rule. You might have to play with letter spacing to avoid small white gaps between letters.
If you do not require a specific font, it's simple. Download a likeable one, for example from this collection of inverted fonts.
If you require a specific font (say, "Open Sans"), it's difficult. You have to convert your existing font into an inverted version. This is possible manually with Font Creator, FontForge etc., but of course we want an automated solution. I could not find instructions for that yet, but some hints:
How to convert a bitmap font into a TrueType font (plus yet another way to do that). One would first use ImageMagick commands to render the font glyphs into high-resolution raster images and to invert them, then convert them back to a TrueType font with the above instructions.
Is it possible to invert a font with FontForge or another PGM?
Creating a reverse (white on black) font
You can use myadzel's Patternizer jQuery plugin to achieve this effect across browsers. At this time, there is no cross-browser way to do this with just CSS.
You use Patternizer by adding class="background-clip" to HTML elements where you want the text to be painted as an image pattern, and specify the image in an additional data-pattern="…" attribute. See the source of the demo. Patternizer will create an SVG image with pattern-filled text and underlay it to the transparently rendered HTML element.
If, as in the question's example image, the text fill pattern should be a part of a background image extending beyond the "patternized" element, I see two options (untested, my favourite first):
Use masking instead of a background image in the SVG. As in web-tiki's answer, to which using Patternizer will still add automatic generation of the SVG and an invisible HTML element on top that allows text selection and copying.
Or use automatic alignment of the pattern image. Can be done with JavaScript code similar to the one in Gijs's answer.
I needed to make text that looked exactly like it does in the original post, but I couldn't just fake it by lining up backgrounds, because there's some animation behind the element. Nobody seems to have suggested this yet, so here's what I did: (Tried to make it as easy to read as possible.)
var el = document.body; //Parent Element. Text is centered inside.
var mainText = "THIS IS THE FIRST LINE"; //Header Text.
var subText = "THIS TEXT HAS A KNOCKOUT EFFECT"; //Knockout Text.
var fontF = "Roboto, Arial"; //Font to use.
var mSize = 42; //Text size.
//Centered text display:
var tBox = centeredDiv(el), txtMain = mkDiv(tBox, mainText), txtSub = mkDiv(tBox),
ts = tBox.style, stLen = textWidth(subText, fontF, mSize)+5; ts.color = "#fff";
ts.font = mSize+"pt "+fontF; ts.fontWeight = 100; txtSub.style.fontWeight = 400;
//Generate subtext SVG for knockout effect:
txtSub.innerHTML =
"<svg xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2000/svg' width='"+stLen+"px' height='"+(mSize+11)+"px' viewBox='0 0 "+stLen+" "+(mSize+11)+"'>"+
"<rect x='0' y='0' width='100%' height='100%' fill='#fff' rx='4px' ry='4px' mask='url(#txtSubMask)'></rect>"+
"<mask id='txtSubMask'>"+
"<rect x='0' y='0' width='100%' height='100%' fill='#fff'></rect>"+
"<text x='"+(stLen/2)+"' y='"+(mSize+6)+"' font='"+mSize+"pt "+fontF+"' text-anchor='middle' fill='#000'>"+subText+"</text>"+
"</mask>"+
"</svg>";
//Relevant Helper Functions:
function centeredDiv(parent) {
//Container:
var d = document.createElement('div'), s = d.style;
s.display = "table"; s.position = "relative"; s.zIndex = 999;
s.top = s.left = 0; s.width = s.height = "100%";
//Content Box:
var k = document.createElement('div'), j = k.style;
j.display = "table-cell"; j.verticalAlign = "middle";
j.textAlign = "center"; d.appendChild(k);
parent.appendChild(d); return k;
}
function mkDiv(parent, tCont) {
var d = document.createElement('div');
if(tCont) d.textContent = tCont;
parent.appendChild(d); return d;
}
function textWidth(text, font, size) {
var canvas = window.textWidthCanvas || (window.textWidthCanvas = document.createElement("canvas")),
context = canvas.getContext("2d"); context.font = size+(typeof size=="string"?" ":"pt ")+font;
return context.measureText(text).width;
}
Just throw that in your window.onload, set the body's background to your image, and watch the magic happen!
mix-blend-mode is also a possibility for that kind of effect .
The mix-blend-mode CSS property sets how an element's content should blend with the content of the element's parent and the element's background.
h1 {
background:white;
mix-blend-mode:screen;
/* demo purpose from here */
padding:0.25em;
mix-blend-mode:screen;
}
html {
background:url(https://i.picsum.photos/id/1069/367/267.jpg?hmac=w5sk7UQ6HGlaOVQ494mSfIe902cxlel1BfGUBpEYoRw)center / cover ;
min-height:100vh;
display:flex;
}
body {margin:auto;}
h1:hover {border:dashed 10px white;background-clip:content-box;box-shadow:inset 0 0 0 2px #fff, 0 0 0 2px #fff}
<h1>ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ</h1>
This worked for me mix-blend-mode: color-dodge on the container with opposite colors.
.main{
background: url('https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2015/04/23/22/00/tree-736885__340.jpg');
height: 80vh;
width: 100vw;
padding: 40px;
}
.container{
background-color: white;
width: 80%;
height: 50px;
padding: 40px;
font-size: 3em;
font-weight: 600;
mix-blend-mode: color-dodge;
}
.container span{
color: black;
}
<div class="main">
<div class="container">
<span>This is my text</span>
</div>
</div>
Not possible with CSS just now I'm afraid.
Your best bet is to simply use an image (probably a PNG) and and place good alt/title text on it.
Alternatively you could use a SPAN or a DIV and have the image as a background to that with your text you want for SEO purposes inside it but text-indent it off screen.

Retrieving and setting dynamically loaded image sizes via js

Consider this javascript code:
const profileImageURL = 'https://api.images.com/image/' + id +'/profile';
let profileImage = [];
async function getProfileImage() {
const response = await fetch(profileImageURL);
profileImage = await response.json();
};
and this svelte template code:
<div class="thumbImg">
{#await getProfileImage()}
<div class='spinnerHolder'
in:fade={{duration: 500}}
out:fade={{duration: 500}}
on:introstart={() => doneLoading = false}
on:outroend={() => doneLoading = true}
>
<svg class="spinner" viewBox="0 0 50 50">
<circle class="path" cx="25" cy="25" r="20" fill="none" stroke-width="5"></circle>
</svg>
</div>
{:then value}
{#if doneLoading}
<img transition:fade alt='profile-image' src={profileImage.url}/>
{/if}
{/await}
</div>
and css:
.thumbImg {
width: 64px;
height: 64px;
display:inline-block;
background-color: var(--border-color);
border: none;
border-radius: var(--large-radius);
overflow: hidden;
img {
min-width: 64px;
border-radius: var(--large-radius);
border-image-width: 0;
}
}
The above loaded images arrive at different widths and heights. Some portrait and some landscape. They need to all be displayed in a square 1:1 box that is 64px x 64px without white space at the side or the bottom. How can I maintain the aspect ratio of these dynamically loaded images so that they either fill the width or height depending on which is needed ? Ideally they would also be offset so they are centered in the 1:1 box.
Visual Examples of the problem:
Updated answer building on Rich's comment below
You can use the object-fit and object-position CSS properties together to fine tune the way the image is displayed inside its content box:
.thumbImg {
width: 64px;
height: 64px;
display:inline-block;
background-color: var(--border-color);
border: none;
border-radius: var(--large-radius);
overflow: hidden;
img {
height: 64px;
width: 64px;
object-fit: cover; // this will make the image cover the content box, clipping horizontally if the original image is landscape orientation, or vertically if it is portrait orientation
object-position: 50% 50%; // this will center the image in the content box (i.e. clip on the left & right if source is landscape and clip top & bottom if source is portrait)
}
}
With this, you do not need to modify your code any further.
Original answer, using CSS background images
You can achieve the desired positioning by using background image CSS properties rather than an img tag, for example:
.avatar {
height: 64px;
width: 64px;
background-size: cover; // this will make the image cover the div, clipping horizontally if the original image is landscape orientation, or vertically if it is portrait orientation
background-position: 50% 50%; // this will center the image (i.e. clip on the left & right if source is landscape and clip top & bottom if source is portrait)
}
With this, all you have to do is replace your <img> tag with a <div class="avatar"> tag and set the background image source dynamically:
<div class="thumbImg">
{#await getProfileImage()}
<div class='spinnerHolder'
in:fade={{duration: 500}}
out:fade={{duration: 500}}
on:introstart={() => doneLoading = false}
on:outroend={() => doneLoading = true}
>
<svg class="spinner" viewBox="0 0 50 50">
<circle class="path" cx="25" cy="25" r="20" fill="none" stroke-width="5"></circle>
</svg>
</div>
{:then value}
{#if doneLoading}
<div
transition:fade
class="avatar"
alt="Profile image"
style="background-image: url('{profileImage.url}')"
/>
{/if}
{/await}
</div>
Of course the downside is that you're not using a native image tag anymore, and maybe this is important to you. On the upside, it works without having to use javascript-based DOM manipulation.
You can either make the images width and height relative to the parent div by using percentage values or just set the images to the required max-width and max-height
.thumbImg {
max-width: 64px;
max-height: 64px;
display:inline-block;
background-color: var(--border-color);
border: none;
border-radius: var(--large-radius);
overflow: hidden;
img {
max-width: 100%; //relative to the parent DIV
border-radius: var(--large-radius);
border-image-width: 0;
}
}

is it possible make a text color to inherit a its parent background color? [duplicate]

Is there any way to make a transparent text cut out of a background effect like the one in the following image, with CSS?

var top = position.top + padding;
$("h1").find("span").css("background-position","-"+left+"px -"+top+"px");

If you aim on making the text selectable and searchable, you need to include it outside the <defs> tag. The following example shows a way to do that keeping the transparent text with the <use> tag:
body,html{height:100%;margin:0;padding:0;}
body{
background:url('https://farm9.staticflickr.com/8760/17195790401_94fcf60556_c.jpg');
background-size:cover;
background-attachment:fixed;
}
svg{width:100%;}
<svg viewbox="0 0 100 60">
<defs>
<g id="text">
<text text-anchor="middle" x="50" y="18" dy="1">SVG</text>
<text text-anchor="middle" x="50" y="30" dy="1">Text mask</text>
</g>
<mask id="mask" x="0" y="0" width="100" height="50">
<rect x="0" y="0" width="100" height="40" fill="#fff"/>
<use xlink:href="#text" />
</mask>
</defs>
<rect x="5" y="5" width="90" height="30" mask="url(#mask)" fill-opacity="0.5"/>
<use xlink:href="#text" mask="url(#mask)" />
</svg>
There is a simple way to do this with just CSS:
background: black;
color: white;
mix-blend-mode: multiply;
for transparent text on a black background, or
background: white;
color: black;
mix-blend-mode: screen;
for transparent text on a white background.
Put these styles on your text element with whichever background you want behind it.
Example CodePen
Read up on mix-blend-mode and experiment with it to use different colours.
Caveats:
For this to work in chrome, you also need to explicitly set a background colour on the html element.
This works on basically all modern browsers except IE.
It is possible, but so far only with Webkit based browsers (Chrome, Safari, Rockmelt, anything based on the Chromium project.)
The trick is to have an element within the white one that has the same background as the body, then use -webkit- background-clip: text; on the inner element which basically means "don't extend the background beyond the text" and use transparent text.

just put that css
.banner-sale-1 .title-box .title-overlay {
font-weight: 900;
overflow: hidden;
margin: 0;
padding-right: 10%;
padding-left: 10%;
text-transform: uppercase;
color: #080404;
background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, .85);
/* that css is the main think (mix-blend-mode: lighten;)*/
mix-blend-mode: lighten;
}
I just discovered a new way to do this while messing around, I'm not entirely sure how it works ( if someone else wants to explain please do ).
It seems to work very well, and requires no double backgrounds or JavaScript.
Here's the code:
JSFIDDLE
body {
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
}
div {
background: url(http://www.color-hex.com/palettes/26323.png) repeat;
width: 100vw;
height: 100vh;
}
body::before {
content: '$ALPHABET';
left: 0;
top: 0;
position: absolute;
color: #222;
background-color: #fff;
padding: 1rem;
font-family: Arial;
z-index: 1;
mix-blend-mode: screen;
font-weight: 800;
font-size: 3rem;
letter-spacing: 1rem;
}
<div></div>
In the near future we can use element() to achieve this
The element() function allows an author to use an element in the document as an image. As the referenced element changes appearance, the image changes as well ref
The trick is to create a common div with text then use element() combined with mask.
Here is a basic example that works only on the latest version Firefox for now.
#text {
font-size:35px;
font-weight:bold;
color:#000;
font-family:sans-serif;
text-transform: uppercase;
white-space:nowrap;
/* we hide it */
position:fixed;
right:200vw;
bottom:200vh
}
body {
background:url(https://picsum.photos/id/1018/800/800) center/cover;
}
.main {
margin:50px;
height:100px;
background:red;
-webkit-mask:
-moz-element(#text) center/contain no-repeat, /* this behave like a background-image*/
linear-gradient(#fff 0 0);
mask-composite:exclude;
}
<div id="text">
You can put your text here
</div>
<div class="main">
</div>
It will produce the following:
It's reponsive since we rely on basic background properties and we can easily update the text using basic CSS.
We can consider any kind of content and also create patterns:
#text {
font-size:30px;
font-weight:bold;
color:#000;
font-family:sans-serif;
text-transform: uppercase;
white-space:nowrap;
padding:20px;
/* we hide it */
position:fixed;
right:200vw;
bottom:200vh
}
#text span {
font-family:cursive;
font-size:35px;
}
body {
background:url(https://picsum.photos/id/1018/800/800) center/cover;
}
.main {
margin:50px;
height:100px;
background:red;
-webkit-mask:
-moz-element(#text) 0 0/20% auto, /* this behave like a background-image*/
linear-gradient(#fff 0 0);
mask-composite:exclude;
}
<div id="text">
Your <span>text</span> here 👍
</div>
<div class="main">
</div>
And why not some animation to create an infinite scrolling text:
#text {
font-size:30px;
font-weight:bold;
color:#000;
font-family:sans-serif;
text-transform: uppercase;
white-space:nowrap;
padding:20px 5px;
/* we hide it */
position:fixed;
right:200vw;
bottom:200vh
}
body {
background:url(https://picsum.photos/id/1018/800/800) center/cover;
}
.main {
margin:50px;
height:100px;
padding-right:calc(50% - 50px);
background:red;
-webkit-mask:
-moz-element(#text) 0 50%/200% auto content-box, /* this behave like a background-image*/
linear-gradient(#fff 0 0);
mask-composite:exclude;
animation:m 5s linear infinite;
}
#keyframes m{
to {-webkit-mask-position:200% 50%}
}
<div id="text">
Srolling repeating text here
</div>
<div class="main">
</div>
I guess you could achieve something like that using background-clip, but I haven't tested that yet.
See this example:
http://www.css3.info/wp-content/uploads/2008/03/webkit-backgroundcliptext_color.html
(Webkit only, I don't know yet how to change the black background to a white one)
You can use an inverted / negative / reverse font and apply it with the font-face="…" CSS rule. You might have to play with letter spacing to avoid small white gaps between letters.
If you do not require a specific font, it's simple. Download a likeable one, for example from this collection of inverted fonts.
If you require a specific font (say, "Open Sans"), it's difficult. You have to convert your existing font into an inverted version. This is possible manually with Font Creator, FontForge etc., but of course we want an automated solution. I could not find instructions for that yet, but some hints:
How to convert a bitmap font into a TrueType font (plus yet another way to do that). One would first use ImageMagick commands to render the font glyphs into high-resolution raster images and to invert them, then convert them back to a TrueType font with the above instructions.
Is it possible to invert a font with FontForge or another PGM?
Creating a reverse (white on black) font
You can use myadzel's Patternizer jQuery plugin to achieve this effect across browsers. At this time, there is no cross-browser way to do this with just CSS.
You use Patternizer by adding class="background-clip" to HTML elements where you want the text to be painted as an image pattern, and specify the image in an additional data-pattern="…" attribute. See the source of the demo. Patternizer will create an SVG image with pattern-filled text and underlay it to the transparently rendered HTML element.
If, as in the question's example image, the text fill pattern should be a part of a background image extending beyond the "patternized" element, I see two options (untested, my favourite first):
Use masking instead of a background image in the SVG. As in web-tiki's answer, to which using Patternizer will still add automatic generation of the SVG and an invisible HTML element on top that allows text selection and copying.
Or use automatic alignment of the pattern image. Can be done with JavaScript code similar to the one in Gijs's answer.
I needed to make text that looked exactly like it does in the original post, but I couldn't just fake it by lining up backgrounds, because there's some animation behind the element. Nobody seems to have suggested this yet, so here's what I did: (Tried to make it as easy to read as possible.)
var el = document.body; //Parent Element. Text is centered inside.
var mainText = "THIS IS THE FIRST LINE"; //Header Text.
var subText = "THIS TEXT HAS A KNOCKOUT EFFECT"; //Knockout Text.
var fontF = "Roboto, Arial"; //Font to use.
var mSize = 42; //Text size.
//Centered text display:
var tBox = centeredDiv(el), txtMain = mkDiv(tBox, mainText), txtSub = mkDiv(tBox),
ts = tBox.style, stLen = textWidth(subText, fontF, mSize)+5; ts.color = "#fff";
ts.font = mSize+"pt "+fontF; ts.fontWeight = 100; txtSub.style.fontWeight = 400;
//Generate subtext SVG for knockout effect:
txtSub.innerHTML =
"<svg xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2000/svg' width='"+stLen+"px' height='"+(mSize+11)+"px' viewBox='0 0 "+stLen+" "+(mSize+11)+"'>"+
"<rect x='0' y='0' width='100%' height='100%' fill='#fff' rx='4px' ry='4px' mask='url(#txtSubMask)'></rect>"+
"<mask id='txtSubMask'>"+
"<rect x='0' y='0' width='100%' height='100%' fill='#fff'></rect>"+
"<text x='"+(stLen/2)+"' y='"+(mSize+6)+"' font='"+mSize+"pt "+fontF+"' text-anchor='middle' fill='#000'>"+subText+"</text>"+
"</mask>"+
"</svg>";
//Relevant Helper Functions:
function centeredDiv(parent) {
//Container:
var d = document.createElement('div'), s = d.style;
s.display = "table"; s.position = "relative"; s.zIndex = 999;
s.top = s.left = 0; s.width = s.height = "100%";
//Content Box:
var k = document.createElement('div'), j = k.style;
j.display = "table-cell"; j.verticalAlign = "middle";
j.textAlign = "center"; d.appendChild(k);
parent.appendChild(d); return k;
}
function mkDiv(parent, tCont) {
var d = document.createElement('div');
if(tCont) d.textContent = tCont;
parent.appendChild(d); return d;
}
function textWidth(text, font, size) {
var canvas = window.textWidthCanvas || (window.textWidthCanvas = document.createElement("canvas")),
context = canvas.getContext("2d"); context.font = size+(typeof size=="string"?" ":"pt ")+font;
return context.measureText(text).width;
}
Just throw that in your window.onload, set the body's background to your image, and watch the magic happen!
mix-blend-mode is also a possibility for that kind of effect .
The mix-blend-mode CSS property sets how an element's content should blend with the content of the element's parent and the element's background.
h1 {
background:white;
mix-blend-mode:screen;
/* demo purpose from here */
padding:0.25em;
mix-blend-mode:screen;
}
html {
background:url(https://i.picsum.photos/id/1069/367/267.jpg?hmac=w5sk7UQ6HGlaOVQ494mSfIe902cxlel1BfGUBpEYoRw)center / cover ;
min-height:100vh;
display:flex;
}
body {margin:auto;}
h1:hover {border:dashed 10px white;background-clip:content-box;box-shadow:inset 0 0 0 2px #fff, 0 0 0 2px #fff}
<h1>ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ</h1>
This worked for me mix-blend-mode: color-dodge on the container with opposite colors.
.main{
background: url('https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2015/04/23/22/00/tree-736885__340.jpg');
height: 80vh;
width: 100vw;
padding: 40px;
}
.container{
background-color: white;
width: 80%;
height: 50px;
padding: 40px;
font-size: 3em;
font-weight: 600;
mix-blend-mode: color-dodge;
}
.container span{
color: black;
}
<div class="main">
<div class="container">
<span>This is my text</span>
</div>
</div>
Not possible with CSS just now I'm afraid.
Your best bet is to simply use an image (probably a PNG) and and place good alt/title text on it.
Alternatively you could use a SPAN or a DIV and have the image as a background to that with your text you want for SEO purposes inside it but text-indent it off screen.

Scrollbar not getting modifed when scale changes in chrome

I have a div, and inside that div I have an 'svg' element.
I want to zoom in, and with every click the 'scale' value of the 'svg' element increases and thus creates a zoom effect.
However, for some reason the scrollbar of the parent div is not being modify when the scale of the inner 'svg' grows.
This problem occurs only in Chrome, in IE I actually get the wanted outcome.
fiddle example
var elementToScale = document.getElementById('svg');
var scale = 1;
document.getElementById('zoom').addEventListener('click', function() {
scale += 0.1
elementToScale.style.transform = "scale(" + scale + ")";
});
div {
border: 1px solid black;
width: 400px;
height: 400px;
overflow: scroll;
}
svg {
border: 1px solid black;
}
<div>
<svg width=300px height=300px id="svg">
<rect width=200 height=200 x=50 y=50 fill="red" />
</svg>
</div>
<br>
<button id="zoom">
ZoomIn
</button>
From what I can see, it appears that it is the div that is not updating as it should be, not the svg itself. This means that what you need to do is force the browser to redraw the div element, which can be done as shown here
var elementToScale = document.getElementById('svg');
var divRedraw = document.getElementById('divRedraw'); //gets the div element
var scale = 1;
document.getElementById('zoom').addEventListener('click', function() {
scale += 0.1
elementToScale.style.transform = "scale(" + scale + ")";
divRedraw.style.display = 'none'; //hides the element
divRedraw.offsetHeight; //let's the browser "catch up" on the code so it gets redrawn
divRedraw.style.display = ''; //shows the element again
});
div {
border: 1px solid black;
width: 400px;
height: 400px;
overflow: scroll;
}
svg {
border: 1px solid black;
}
<div id="divRedraw">
<svg width=300px height=300px id="svg">
<rect width=200 height=200 x=50 y=50 fill="red" />
</svg>
</div>
<br>
<button id="zoom">
ZoomIn
</button>

How to add a tooltip to an svg graphic?

I have a series of svg rectangles (using D3.js) and I want to display a message on mouseover, the message should be surrounded by a box that acts as background. They should both be perfectly aligned to each other and to the rectangle (on top and centered). What is the best way to do this?
I tried adding an svg text using the "x", "y", "width" and "height" attributes, and then prepending an svg rect. The problem is that the reference point for the text is in the middle (since I want it centered aligned I used text-anchor: middle), but for the rectangle it's the top left coordinate, plus I wanted a bit of margin around the text which makes it kind of a pain.
The other option was using an html div, which would be nice, because I can add the text and padding directly but I don't know how to get the absolute coordinates for each rectangle. Is there a way to do this?
Can you use simply the SVG <title> element and the default browser rendering it conveys? (Note: this is not the same as the title attribute you can use on div/img/spans in html, it needs to be a child element named title)
rect {
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
fill: #69c;
stroke: #069;
stroke-width: 5px;
opacity: 0.5
}
<p>Mouseover the rect to see the tooltip on supporting browsers.</p>
<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
<rect>
<title>Hello, World!</title>
</rect>
</svg>
Alternatively, if you really want to show HTML in your SVG, you can embed HTML directly:
rect {
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
fill: #69c;
stroke: #069;
stroke-width: 5px;
opacity: 0.5
}
foreignObject {
width: 100%;
}
svg div {
text-align: center;
line-height: 150px;
}
<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
<rect/>
<foreignObject>
<body xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<div>
Hello, <b>World</b>!
</div>
</body>
</foreignObject>
</svg>
…but then you'd need JS to turn the display on and off. As shown above, one way to make the label appear at the right spot is to wrap the rect and HTML in the same <g> that positions them both together.
To use JS to find where an SVG element is on screen, you can use getBoundingClientRect(), e.g. http://phrogz.net/svg/html_location_in_svg_in_html.xhtml
The only good way I found was to use Javascript to move a tooltip <div> around. Obviously this only works if you have SVG inside an HTML document - not standalone. And it requires Javascript.
function showTooltip(evt, text) {
let tooltip = document.getElementById("tooltip");
tooltip.innerHTML = text;
tooltip.style.display = "block";
tooltip.style.left = evt.pageX + 10 + 'px';
tooltip.style.top = evt.pageY + 10 + 'px';
}
function hideTooltip() {
var tooltip = document.getElementById("tooltip");
tooltip.style.display = "none";
}
#tooltip {
background: cornsilk;
border: 1px solid black;
border-radius: 5px;
padding: 5px;
}
<div id="tooltip" display="none" style="position: absolute; display: none;"></div>
<svg>
<rect width="100" height="50" style="fill: blue;" onmousemove="showTooltip(evt, 'This is blue');" onmouseout="hideTooltip();" >
</rect>
</svg>
You can use the title element as Phrogz indicated. There are also some good tooltips like jQuery's Tipsy http://onehackoranother.com/projects/jquery/tipsy/ (which can be used to replace all title elements), Bob Monteverde's nvd3 or even the Twitter's tooltip from their Bootstrap http://twitter.github.com/bootstrap/
On svg, the right way to write the title
<svg>
<title id="unique-id">Checkout</title>

I always go with the generic css title with my setup. I'm just building analytics for my blog admin page. I don't need anything fancy. Here's some code...
let comps = g.selectAll('.myClass')
.data(data)
.enter()
.append('rect')
...styling...
...transitions...
...whatever...
g.selectAll('.myClass')
.append('svg:title')
.text((d, i) => d.name + '-' + i);
And a screenshot of chrome...
I use heroicons for the project I am working on. (This is JSX format) I will handle the tooltip issue with this code.
<svg className="h-6 w-6">
<title>{reasons.join(" ")}</title>
<QuestionMarkCircleIcon className={style} />
</svg>
