Hi Tristan, Yes, there are several ways, depending on the kind of formatting you're using. One of the simplest can be: myWidth = Math.max(getComputedTextLength() of <text> element's children array) myHeigth = <text> element's children.length * dy (if consistent) + someExtraRoom setAttribute on the svg element To be more accurate you would probably take into account other parameters.
