Dylan,
basically no,
as a minimum you definitely need the xlink:href
href is not part of svg which is why you are defining xlink in the
root and then referencing that definition.

Hi all,
I have a question about the attributes that are added into my
“use” tag when I generate it. Basically I am attempting to
‘streamline’ my SVG to reduce file size, so any attributes that
are not required I’d like to strip out.
My code looks like this…
Element plotCh =
doc.createElementNS(SVGDOMImplementation.SVG_NAMESPACE_URI,
SVG12Constants.SVG_USE_TAG);
plotCh.setAttributeNS(XMLConstants.XLINK_NAMESPACE_URI,
"xlink:href", "#" + type);
plotCh.setAttributeNS(null,
SVG12Constants.SVG_TRANSFORM_ATTRIBUTE, "translate(" + x + "," + y +
")" +"scale(" + scale + ")");
The resultant SVG looks like this:
<use
transform="translate(74.57333333333332,96.58609675667977)scale(5.0)"
xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"; xlink:href="#circle"
xlink:type="simple" xlink:actuate="onLoad" xlink:show="embed">
I was wondering if there was a way I could remove the inclusion of
the xlink namespace etc, as these are defined in the root of my SVG
document?
I’ve tried doing a removeAttributeNS but either this is not
possible or I am attempting to reference them by the wrong
namespace. I’ve tried variations on something like this:
plotCh.removeAttributeNS(XMLConstants.XLINK_NAMESPACE_URI,
"xlink:show");
PS This is topic I raised many moons ago, and kindly received some
tips from Thomas. For reference:
