[I mentioned this in a public-fx email but I’m repeating it here for more visibility.] The CSS Transforms spec currently says: The initial used value for SVG elements without associated CSS layout box is 0 0. I think the concept of an “initial used value” doesn’t make sense. A used value can be defined based on the computed value of the property plus some other conditions (other property values, perhaps what element it’s on). But I don’t think it’s possible to say that the used value becomes 0 0 if the computed value came from the initial value (which is 50% 50%), unless you wanted all occurrences of 50% 50% – even explicit ones – to be treated as 0 0 on these SVG elements. So I think we should define this using a UA style sheet rule. At least Firefox and WebKit both already do implement this using a UA style sheet rule. In Firefox we have: @namespace url(http://www.w3.org/2000/svg); *:not(svg), *:not(foreignObject) > svg { transform-origin: 0 0; } which should capture all non-outer <svg> elements. -- Cameron McCormack ≝ http://mcc.id.au/
