Align HTML5 SVG to the center of the screen

SVG Web Development Javascript Front End Scripts

SVG stands for Scalable Vector Graphics and it is a language for describing 2D-graphics and graphical applications in XML and the XML is then rendered by an SVG viewer.

Example

Let us see an example of SVG −

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
   <head>
      <style>
         #svgelem {
            position: relative;
            left: 50%;
            -webkit-transform: translateX(-20%);
            -ms-transform: translateX(-20%);
            transform: translateX(-20%);
         }
      </style>
      <title>SVG</title>
      <meta charset="utf-8" />
   </head>
   <body>
      <h2>HTML5 SVG Circle</h2>
      <svg id = "svgelem" height = "200" xmlns = "http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
         <circle id = "redcircle" cx = "50" cy = "50" r = "50" fill = "red" />
      </svg>
   </body>
</html>

To center it, add the CSS like the following −

# svgelem {
   margin-left:auto;
   margin-right:auto;
   display:block;
}
