The maskUnits
attribute indicates which coordinate system to use for the geometry properties of the <mask>
element.
You can use this attribute with the following SVG elements:

For <mask>
, maskUnits
defines the coordinate system in use for the geometry attributes (x
, y
, width
and height
) of the element.

Default value | objectBoundingBox |
Animatable | Yes |
userSpaceOnUse
This value indicates that all coordinates for the geometry attributes refer to the user coordinate system as defined when the mask was created.
objectBoundingBox
This value indicates that all coordinates for the geometry attributes represent fractions or percentages of the bounding box of the element to which the mask is applied. A bounding box could be considered the same as if the content of the <mask>
were bound to a "0 0 1 1
" viewBox
.
