CSS transform on SVG Elements IE9+

Question

Having a SVG Path:

Answer 1

IE11 supports the transform attribute in SVG even though it doesn't recognize the CSS style.

Fortunately, you can simply set the attribute to match the style using JavaScript:

var g = document.querySelector('.st8'),
    transform = getComputedStyle(g).getPropertyValue('transform');
    
g.setAttribute('transform', transform);

.st8 {
    -ms-transform: rotate(45deg); /* doesn't work on IE */
    transform: rotate(45deg);
}
