I also had that problem. In mathematical graphics the positive y axis usually points upwards. Using a different coordinate system for positioning the text is not quite elegant. My solution is, when you've got a text which is inside a group with transform="scale(1,- 1)" then instead of
<text x="1" y="20">x</text> write <text transform="translate(1 20) scale(1 -1)">x</text> Regards Frank --- In svg-developers@yahoogroups.com, Peter Thompson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Everyone knows that by default, the y-axis increases > as you move down the screen.
