I am trying to centre the <text>
inside of the <path>
element. Path is a circle drawn using @opsb great answer. I can centre the text horizontally using text-anchor='middle'
.
Is there a way to centre it Vertically?
<svg width="200px" height="200px" version="1.1" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
<path id='path' fill="transparent" stroke='red' stroke-width='6'/>
<text x="100" y="100" font-family="Verdana" font-size="50" fill="blue" text-anchor='middle'>5</text>
</svg>
JSFiddle with the javascript.

You can now use dominant-baseline="central"
to vertically align the text without javascript.
<svg width="150px" height="150px" version="1.1" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
<circle cx="75" cy="75" r="69" stroke="red" fill="none" stroke-width="6" />
<text x="75" y="75" font-family="Verdana" font-size="50" fill="blue" text-anchor='middle' dominant-baseline="central">5</text>
</svg>

You'll want to use alignment-baseline to centre text vertically.
Something like this:
<text x="100" y="100" font-family="Verdana" font-size="50" fill="blue" text-anchor='middle' alignment-baseline="central">5</text>

Since svg is responsive I usually put in a hard value that is about the radius of the circle.
So simply by adding:
transform="translate(0, 15)
function polarToCartesian(centerX, centerY, radius, angleInDegrees) {
var angleInRadians = (angleInDegrees - 90) * Math.PI / 180.0;
return {
x: centerX + (radius * Math.cos(angleInRadians)),
y: centerY + (radius * Math.sin(angleInRadians))
};
}
function describeArc(x, y, radius, startAngle, endAngle) {
var start = polarToCartesian(x, y, radius, endAngle);
var end = polarToCartesian(x, y, radius, startAngle);
var arcSweep = endAngle - startAngle <= 180 ? "0" : "1";
var d = [
"M", start.x, start.y,
"A", radius, radius, 0, arcSweep, 0, end.x, end.y
].join(" ");
return d;
}
$('#path').attr("d", describeArc(100, 100, 50, 0, 180));

<text x="100" y="100" transform="translate(0, 15)" font-family="Verdana" font-size="50" fill="blue" text-anchor='middle'>5</text>
<circle cx="100" cy="100" fill="black" r="2" />
<circle cx="100" cy="50" fill="black" r="2" />
