Well both of the solutions seem's to do "nothing" ....
The getBBox method always return null, maybe because the tesxt element is location under the group tag (G) and in the définition part, The text is not under a use tag... Any other idea ?

There is no problem with getting the bounded box of the whole group, but curiously, I can't find a way to only the "text"'s bounded box Can someone help ?
