Adjust the height of the svg

My page contains an SVG that is impacting the height of its container and causing other elements to move. Is there a way to adjust the height of the SVG? Currently, the SVG is a square but I would prefer it to be a rectangle as the height is too large.

<svg version="1.1" id="Layer_1" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" x="0px" y="0px"
viewBox="0 0 60 60" enable-background="new 0 0 30 30" xml:space="preserve" width="50%" height="11%">
    <path fill="none" stroke="white" stroke-miterlimit="10" d="M19.7,7.6C15.3,4,9.1,4.1,5.3,7.7c-3.2,3-4,8-2.1,12
    c2.1,4.4,7.1,6.6,11.3,5.7c2.6-0.5,4.3-2.1,5.1-2.9"/>
    <line fill="none" stroke="white" stroke-width="1.1572" stroke-miterlimit="10" x1="19.3" y1="7.3" x2="10.8" y2="15.5"/>
    <line fill="none" stroke="white" stroke-width="1.3426" stroke-miterlimit="10" x1="10.9" y1="14.8" x2="19.7" y2="23.2"/>
    <line fill="none" stroke="none" stroke-width="1.1322" stroke-miterlimit="10" x1="14.7" y1="15.4" x2="23.5" y2="7.1"/>
    <line fill="none" stroke="none" stroke-width="0.9577" stroke-miterlimit="10" x1="14.9" y1="14.9" x2="22.7" y2="22.6"/>
    <path fill="none" stroke="none" stroke-width="1.0915" stroke-miterlimit="10" d="M22.9,7.2c0.3,0.1,0.6,0.4,1,0.7
    c1.8,1.4,3.9,4.2,3.4,7.9c-0.4,3-2.4,5.6-5.2,6.7"/>

    <text x="20" y="18" fill="White" class="textsvg" font-size="10">MENU</text>
</svg>

I have made some adjustments to your svg by removing the width and height attributes and tweaking the viewBox values slightly.

With this updated svg code, you can now easily set the size using css.

Answer №2

Modify the viewbox parameter, shown below:

<svg ... viewBox="0 0 60 60" ...

This indicates that the SVG is a square that begins at 0, 0 and measures 60 units on each side. Adjusting this will only impact the aspect ratio of the SVG view, allowing you to specify its width more precisely in pixels or percentage using CSS.

Answer №3

It has been mentioned by mwl that removing the width and height attributes from the <svg> element is necessary. The software used to design the graphic automatically includes data in the viewbox, so when mwl made adjustments, it seems like there was excess white space in the saved file. I have also replicated your fiddle here but without the additional white space. One key thing to keep in mind about SVG is that scaling is crucial, and preserving the aspect ratio is more important than pixel dimensions. For more information, you can refer to this insightful article by Amelia Bellany-Royds on CSS-Tricks.
