The x and y numbers specify the coordinate, in the scaled viewBox coordinate system, to use for the top left corner of the SVG viewport.

Even if your SVG code uses other units, such as inches or centimeters, these will also be scaled to match the overall scale created by the viewBox. Likewise, the height is the number of px/coordinates that should be scaled to fill the available height. The width is the width in user coordinates/px units, within the SVG code, that should be scaled to fill the width of the area into which you’re drawing your SVG (the view port in SVG lingo). Its value is a list of four numbers, separated by whitespace or commas: x, y, width, height. The viewBox is an attribute of the element. It defines the origin of the SVG coordinate system, the point where x=0 and y=0.It defines how all the lengths and coordinates used inside the SVG should be scaled to fit the total space available.It defines the aspect ratio of the image.It’s the final piece that makes vector graphics Scalable Vector Graphics. The SVG viewBox is a whole lot of magic rolled up in one little attribute. What you want is to set an aspect ratio for the image, and have the drawing scale to fit. You don’t actually want to set the exact height and width anyway, you want the SVG to scale to match the width and/or height you set in the CSS.
Which, as mentioned above, will be either 150px or 100vh, depending on the browser. Of course, you’re not giving up on last year’s resolution to always use responsive design, so you set svg.banner will cancel out the dimensions and aspect ratio you set in the code, and give you the default height for inline SVG. You create a fabulous header logo in Inkscape and you copy and paste the SVG code it spits out into your WordPress header file. This year, you are going to start using SVG in your web designs. It’s not nearly as straightforward as scaling raster graphics, but that can be good, because it opens up interesting possibilities. Amelia and I both will be speaking on SVG at the upcoming RWD Summit as well! Here, she shares an epic guide to scaling SVG, covering all the ways you might want to do that. Amelia has lots of experience with SVG, as the co-author of SVG Essentials and author of the upcoming Using SVG with CSS3 and HTML5.

We hope you enjoyed this tutorial on how to resize an image in Inkscape.The following is a guest post by Amelia Bellamy-Royds. If needed, you can also crop the image to remove unwanted areas. You can now edit your design, whether it’s adding some color or editing the nodes. To resize proportionally, hold the Shift button while clicking + dragging in the right bottom corner handle. When you click + drag one in or out, the design will be adjusted depending on which handle you move. When you click on the object to select, small arrows will appear along the sides and corners. You will notice that, unlike with the Transform Panel, the design was resized to the corner of the document. The H (Height) box was automatically adjusted according to the information in the W box. Next, we typed in our size in the W (Width) box. Then we clicked on the little lock between the W and H boxes to keep the aspect ratio. As we did before, we changed the scale but this time to mm. The toolbar contains various options, one of which contains the Width and Height. The second way to resize an image in Inkscape is to use the top toolbar. We left this un-ticked so the object as a whole was scaled. The option “Apply to each object separately” can be ticked if you want certain objects adjusted. Next, before adjusting Width and Height, make sure Scale Proportionally is ticked. Select Scale then click on the drop down menu next to Width to change the scale to percentage. The panel will open on the right side of the screen. To access this panel you need to go to Object > Transform. The Transform Panel offers options to Move, Scale, Rotate etc under one panel.
This will prevent accidentally missing any small items when scaling. In order to scale all the items together, you will need to group the objects in Inkscape. If you are using a SVG, it may open as ungrouped elements.
