SVG y Attribute

The y attribute defines the y-axis coordinate in the user coordinate system.

Syntax:

y = "y-coordinate"

Attribute Values:

length: length at which we want to set the x-axis.
percentage: percentage at which we want to set the x-axis.

We will use the y attribute for setting the y coordinate for the elements.

Example 1: Group of rectangle elements with different y-axis.
