Considering your use case, you may want to try a slightly different approach. You can bypass the AWTEvent capture and use the DOM Event structure in SVG.
Check out http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG/interact.html with special attention to pointer-events and event names. // create a listener: EventListener myListener = new EventListener() { public void handleEvent(Event evt) { String evtType = evt.getType(); if(evt.equals("mousemove")) { ... } } }; // attach the listener to the element: ((EventTarget) myEl).addEventListener("mousemove", myListener, false); Keep in mind that you can then use SVGLocatable.getTransformToElement() if you need to transform to another coord system within the document.
