I have an svg which takes its parent width, but when I scale or rotate the parent the svg's drop shadow gets cut. The left one is fine, but when the parent is the same width and height of the svg (right one) it behaves different. I have overflow visible and filterUnits="userSpaceOnUse" http://jsfiddle.net/xrsknjfv/
scale.addEventListener("mousedown", function(){
this.parentElement.classList.toggle("scale");
})
svg{
fill: yellow;
overflow: visible;
width: 100%;
}
body > div{
position: absolute;
left: 50px;
top: 50px;
}
div > div{
display: inline-block;
width: 150px;
transition: 5s all;
}
div > div:nth-of-type(1){
padding: 15px;
}
div.scale > div{
transform: scale(0);
}
<div>
<button id="scale">
scale
</button>
