SVGSVGElement: checkIntersection() method
Limited availability
This feature is not Baseline because it does not work in some of the most widely-used browsers.
The checkIntersection()
method of the SVGSVGElement
interface checks if the rendered content of the given element intersects the supplied rectangle.
Each candidate graphics element is to be considered a match only if the same graphics element can be a target of pointer events as defined in pointer-events
processing.
Syntax
js
checkIntersection(element, rect)
Parameters
Return value
A boolean.
Examples
>Checking if an Element Intersects a Rectangle
html
<svg id="exampleSVG" width="200" height="200">
<rect
id="checkRect"
x="10"
y="10"
width="100"
height="100"
fill="none"
stroke="red" />
<circle id="targetElement" cx="80" cy="80" r="50" fill="blue" />
</svg>
<button id="checkIntersectionBtn">Check Intersection</button>
<pre id="result"></pre>
js
const svgElement = document.getElementById("exampleSVG");
const checkRect = document.getElementById("checkRect");
const targetElement = document.getElementById("targetElement");
const resultDisplay = document.getElementById("result");
document
.getElementById("checkIntersectionBtn")
.addEventListener("click", () => {
const rect = svgElement.createSVGRect();
rect.x = checkRect.x.baseVal.value;
rect.y = checkRect.y.baseVal.value;
rect.width = checkRect.width.baseVal.value;
rect.height = checkRect.height.baseVal.value;
const isIntersecting = svgElement.checkIntersection(targetElement, rect);
resultDisplay.textContent = `Does the circle intersect with the rectangle? ${isIntersecting}`;
});
