Hi Stefan, There is a nifty thing called getCTM for determining the "Current Transformation Matrix".
An example of its use to draw a bounding box around transformed objects can be seen here: http://srufaculty.sru.edu/david.dailey/svg/getCTM.svg hope this helps (holler if not) David ----- Original Message ----- From: Stefan Heinrichsen To: svg-developers@yahoogroups.com Sent: Sunday, February 17, 2008 6:58 AM Subject: [svg-developers] getBBox with transformations Hello, I want to mark a svg element with a surrounding rectangle. The method getBBox sounded just perfect therefore until I recognized that it does not works anymore with elements which are transformed in any way. SVG 1.2 has the method getScreenBBox what is exactly what I need. But scince my Application is for use in browsers I can not use SVG 1.2. Does anyone knows how it is possible to implement this method in SVG 1.1 and ecma-script?
