: Use Inkscape To Align SVG to Top-Left Of Canvas I have an SVG which has bbox of something like SVGRect {x: 236.92999267578125, y: 99.98999786376953, width: 121.48001098632812, height: 224.70001220703125}

I have an SVG which has bbox of something like

SVGRect {x: 236.92999267578125, y: 99.98999786376953, width: 121.48001098632812, height: 224.70001220703125}

How can I use Inkscape to position the graphic to the top left of the canvas so that the x & y values above are zero.

Edit: I have figured out using the align & distribute panel. However, inkscape is applying transformation & not actually changing the path co-ordinates, which is what I actually want.


--- EDIT ---
As per @Scribblemacher 's request, here is a sample.

I want this:

<g transform=(-10, -10)>
<path d="M329.66,99.99l22.1,4c0,0-14.5,52.9-2.1,51.6c0,0-11.7,72.7-10,83.7
c0,0,18.8,81.1,17.3,85.4...>


to be converted into this:

<g>
<path d="M319.66,88.99l22.1,4c0,0-14.5,52.9-2.1,51.6c0,0-11.7,72.7-10,83.7
c0,0,18.8,81.1,17.3,85.4...>"


In other words, the transformation should be mapped onto the individual paths of the group, the actual co-ordinates of the path. The above 'M329.66,88.99' becomes 'M319.66,99.99'. Hope that makes sense.
