Hi Zainab,
I'm guessing that you want to do what I needed to do: find the
bounding box of each symbol as rendered. My code traversed the DOM,
and when it found an element that was a <use>, it stored the bounding
box, as follows:
Element el;
// ...
String elementTag = el.getNodeName();
SVGRect bb = null;
if (elementTag.equals("use"))
{
bb = ((SVGOMUseElement) el).getBBox();
// ...
}
Does this help?
