How do I get the font size of a SvgTextElement when it could be set by CSS and/or inherited?

Answer 1

This is really more in the nature of a comment. The following slightly simpler formulation works:

var fontSize = window.getComputedStyle(element).fontSize;

If you want to be able to search on the phrase 'font-size' then the following works:

var fontSize = window.getComputedStyle(element)['font-size'];

Answer 2

var fontSize = window.getComputedStyle(element, null).getPropertyValue("font-size");

where element would be the result of document.getElementById or something similar.
