I invoke setSVGDocument to set the JSVGCanvas's SVG document. A shape is partially off screen. I translate the view over some to show the offcanvas part of the shape… Uh oh, the offcanvas part of the shape has been clipped off! That circle/triangle/blob has it’s end chopped off! Rerendering/translating/zooming/rotating doesn't do anything, the shape remains clipped. The end remains chopped off!

 

It appears that the JSVGCanvas caches a version of my SVG document limited to the visible portions and never changes it. It simply never render shapes/shapeparts that were offcanvas when the SVGDocument was first set. I want my shapes to be whole. What do I do?

 

2 possible solutions I see:

 

(1) Set the initial transform on the canvas so all shapes in the document are visible from the start. I have found no way to do this. The transform seems to be reset everytime setSVGDocument is invoked. I can find no way to have a transform in effect when invoking setSVGDocument.

 

(2) Use some kind of updateRendering method that takes a preexisting transform into account. It'd be pretty much the same as (1) then I guess.

 

Help!
