I manged to get it working (kind of) just now! I followed your advice and I added a listener to every node to see what the event dispatch queue was and i realized that events does not get propagated within symbols. I'll explay better, given this: 1. <svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"; xmlns:myns="........"> 2 <defs> 3 <symbol id="INNERSYMBOL"> 4 <g> 5 <rect width="100" height="62.5" ry="5" x="+3" y="+3" /> 6 <rect id="EVENT_GENERATOR" width="100" height="62.5" ry="5"/> 7 </g> 8 </symbol> 9 </defs> 10 <defs> 11 <symbol id="OUTERSYMBOL"> 12 ................ 13 <use id="LISTENING_NODE" myns:type="mytype" xlink:href="#INNERSYMBOL"/> 14 ................ 15 </symbol> 16 </defs> 17<use xlink:href="#OUTERSYMBOL" x="195" y="702" width="622" height="394"/> 18</svg>
When I click on <rect id="EVENT_GENERATOR">, the dispatch queue is: <use xlink:href="#OUTERSYMBOL".../> <svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"../> Eliminating lines 10, 11, 15, 16, 17 and doing so eliminating a nesting level the the dispatch queue is: <use id="LISTENING_NODE"/> <svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"../> and that is enough for me at the moment even though it's not a fully fledged solution. Thanks a lot for you help and I'll let you know if i find something more definitive. I would appreciate if you could do the same.
