Hi achio, I believe that you can use transform (matrix). The matrix command allows you to combine all transform commands on a single line. Read about it here: http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG/coords.html#TransformAttribute <http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG/coords.html#TransformAttribute> :-)

Coz after I scale the shape, and translate it, the scale | change to it default value again... I don't know why.... An attribute value is a string, not a function. Thus, in order to have both transformations active, you must concatenate them. shape1.setAttributeNS(null, "transform","scale("+scaleLevel+") translate("+positionx+","+positiony+")"); or, to make it a little more managable var transformStr = "scale("+scaleLevel+") translate("+positionx+","+positiony+")"; shape1.setAttributeNS(null, "transform", transformStr); These will both end up as e.g.: <circle cx="5" cy="55" r="20" transform="scale(2) translate(100,30)" /> Note that you will get different results depending on the order of these transform commands. If translate is after scale, you will multiply the parameters of translate by the parameters of the scale (e.g. in the above example, it would be the equivalent of doubling the translate parameters, or the same as saying transform="translate(200,60) scale(2)").
