removeEmptyText

Default

Removes empty <text> and <tspan> elements, and <tref> elements that don't reference another node in the document.

info

No browsers supports <tref>, so it's best to avoid that element regardless.

Usage

svgo.config.js
module.exports = {
plugins: [
"removeEmptyText"
]
}

Parameters

text

If to remove empty <text> elements.

tspan

If to remove empty <tspan> elements.

tref

If to remove empty <tref> elements.
