SVGAngle: valueAsString property
Baseline
Widely available
This feature is well established and works across many devices and browser versions. It’s been available across browsers since July 2015.
The valueAsString property of the SVGAngle interface represents the angle's value as a string, in the units expressed by unitType.
Setting this attribute will cause value, valueInSpecifiedUnits, and unitType to be updated automatically to reflect this setting.
Value
A string; the value of the angle.
Examples
Setting and retrieving valueAsString
js
// Get an SVGAngle object
const svg = document.querySelector("svg");
const angle = svg.createSVGAngle();
// Set the value using valueAsString in degrees
angle.valueAsString = "45deg";
console.log(angle.valueAsString); // Output: "45deg"
console.log(angle.value); // Output: 45 (in degrees)
// Set the value using valueAsString in radians
angle.valueAsString = "1.57rad";
console.log(angle.valueAsString); // Output: "1.57rad"
console.log(Math.round(angle.value)); // Output: 90 (since 1.57 radians is approximately 90 degrees)
