Want to create border on image inside SVG wrapper
Back again with another stupid SVG question...
I want to add a border to an image inside an SVG *wrapper*. I tried by using "border-width="xxxxxx", and by using "style="border-width:xxxxxxx", etc, etc, etc. And those don't work worth a darn. Using "rect" inside a wrapper won't work. I have googled around unsuccessfully, so now I am stuck. Is it possible to do this? Do I have to make some sort of declaration to identify these? Any advice will be much appreciated. |

Solution:
Code:
<div style="border:1px black solid;"> <svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" height="99%" preserveAspectRatio="none" version="1.1" viewBox="0 0 768 1024" width="99%"> <image height="99%" width="99%" xlink:href="../Images/cover.jpg"/> </svg> </div> |

@Odedta, your code was interesting, but it will distort the image if the screen size does not exactly match the image ratio. That would work, though, for some abstract designs, etc. I will keep that one in my back pocket for future use. Thanks.
I wanted some background color around all edges, instead of the image butting right up against the frame on two sides. This did not work for me: Code:
<head> <title>cover</title> <style type="text/css"> @page {margin: 0; padding: 0; border-width: 0; } body {margin:0; padding: 0; border-width: 0; } div { text-indent: 0em; text-align: center; } </style> </head> <body> <div> <svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" height="99%" width="100%" preserveAspectRatio="xMidYMid meet" version="1.1" viewBox="0 0 1024 1457" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"> <image height="1457" width="1024" style="border-width:5px; border-style:solid; border-color:black" xlink:href="../Images/coverET.jpg"/> </svg> </div> </body> I ended up using the following, which sets the div with a black background color, and adjusting the viewport size and alignment. Code:
<head> <title>cover</title> <style type="text/css"> @page {margin: 0; padding: 0; border-width: 0; } body {margin:0; padding: 0; border-width: 0; } div { text-indent: 0em; text-align: center; background-color: black; } </style> </head> <body> <div> <svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" height="99%" preserveAspectRatio="xMidYMid meet" version="1.1" viewBox="-30 -30 1084 1497" width="100%" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"> <image height="1457" width="1024" xlink:href="../Images/coverET.jpg"/> </svg> </div> </body> |

You can simply add a <rect> with stroke after the image (it will be drawn above it). The problem here is that it will overlap the image.
Code:
<svg ... viewBox="0 0 600 800"> <image height="800" width="600" xlink:href="Cover.jpg"/> <rect height="800" width="600" style="stroke-width:10;stroke:rgb(255,0,0);fill:none;"/> Code:
<svg ... viewBox="-10 -10 620 820"> <rect height="820" width="620" x="-10" y="-10" style="fill:rgb(255,0,0);"/> <image height="800" width="600" xlink:href="Cover.jpg"/> Another idea would be to scale the image down, so you can skip the math, but then the borders are not even (because adding is not the same as multiplying), you don't have the same control on their size, and you need maths for the translations (now the math is divide by two): Code:
<svg ... viewBox="0 0 600 800"> <rect height="800" width="600" style="fill:rgb(255,0,0);"/> <g transform="translate(300,400)"> <image height="800" width="600" x="-300" y="-400" xlink:href="Cover.jpg" transform="scale(0.95)" /> </g> Last edited by Jellby; 09-29-2014 at 04:42 AM. |

@Jellby, thank you. Some new tricks to play with, I love it!
I don't know why my eyes glaze and my brain goes to sleep when I see the letters SVG, but I have been trying to overcome that. I will try the filled rect the next time I want a border. Thanks again. |

By the way, my I say that I prefer the cover image to take the whole screen? My reader is already adding enough margins on its own (especially on thumbnails).

You could add a border to the picture itself, so you don't have the trouble with SVG or CSS.
I know that you have IrfanView. There are two options in Image: 1. Change cavas size (which actually means: Add image border. You can choose a colour.). 2. Add border/frame (with a selection of defined frames). I think this is easier. George |

@George -- thank you for the idea. Simpler is always better, isn't it?
