Hello to anyone out there that is capable of helping, I've ran into a bit of trouble that has had me doing a staring competition with VS Code for a while now haha.
I have designed a website UI in Adobe XD. In order to give my design some functionality I exported a few of the elements into an SVG format and moved over to HTML & CSS. I have a few SVG elements that have text labels inside them, which when designing I used Adobe XD to align the text centrally on the horizontal axis of the shapes. However, now I have added them to my HTML code, when it's viewed in a browser all the text has been pushed out to the left out my shape. It's done this for a few different elements but here's an example of one of them:
<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="172" height="239" viewBox="0 0 172 239">
<g id="Boiler-fit-tag" transform="translate(-1499 -296)">
<g id="Group_1" data-name="Group 1" transform="translate(1499 296)">
<g id="Rectangle_28" data-name="Rectangle 28" fill="#fff" stroke="#090808" stroke-width="3">
<rect width="172" height="239" rx="27" stroke="none"/>
<rect x="1.5" y="1.5" width="169" height="236" rx="25.5" fill="none"/>
</g>
<line id="Line_1" data-name="Line 1" x2="143.142" transform="translate(14.579 143.583)" fill="none" stroke="#707070" stroke-width="2"/>
</g>
<!--This line below is meant to be in the centre of the box but is running off the page to the left-->
<text id="Boiler_Fitting" data-name="Boiler Fitting" transform="translate(1530 460)" fill="#e13413" font-size="20" font-family="FranklinGothic-Demi, Franklin Gothic" font-weight="300" letter-spacing="0.039em"><tspan x="-35.055" y="18">BOILER </tspan><tspan x="-36.344" y="40">FITTING</tspan></text>

I've looked online and have tried using the text-anchor
and dominant-baseline
tags but it didn't affect anything. I even tried changing the x
and y
values of the text field but for some of my SVGs that have text that runs over two lines using <tspan>
, it's impossible to align them correctly
text-anchor='middle'
.<text>
x position exactly to the center of the SVG (if the width is 172, set x="86").<text>
out of<g>
elements with transforms.<svg>
to ensure it's not hidden by others.<tspan>
x="0"
