Remarks

The textAnchor property is applied to each individual text chunk within a given text element. (A text chunk is defined by an absolute position adjustment, or an adjustment to the current text position.) Each text chunk has an initial current text position, which represents the point in the user coordinate system resulting from one of the following, depending on context:

• the application of the x and y attributes on the text element
• any x or y attribute values on a span element assigned explicitly to the first rendered character in a text chunk
• determination of the initial current text position for a ISVGTextPathElement element
