move rotated SVG element


So,I have a SVG rect that I can move to the mouse position,with mouseonmove.

It works fine,but when I come to rotate it,the movement is good,but It have a strange offset based on the rotated angle.I guess something is wrong at the cos/sin code,but I can't get what is wrong.

var container = document.getElementById("container"); 
var rect = document.getElementById("rect");
var grados = document.getElementById("grados");
var group = document.getElementById("group");
grados.addEventListener("change",rotate);
container.addEventListener("mousemove", move);

var angle = 0;
var radian = angle * Math.PI / 180;
var cos = Math.cos(radian);
var sin = Math.sin(radian);

function move(e){

    var x = ((e.offsetX * cos) + (e.offsetY * sin));
    var y = ((-e.offsetX * sin) + (e.offsetY * cos));
    rect.setAttribute('x',x);
    rect.setAttribute('y',y);
}

function rotate(e){
    console.log(e);
    group.style.transform='rotate('+e.target.value+'deg)';
    angle = e.target.value;
    radian = angle * Math.PI / 180;
    cos = Math.cos(radian);
    sin = Math.sin(radian);
     
}

Solution

  • Well, after a few days of working, I got it. Seems like the way I was doing it was right, but it causes strange behavior with the transform-origin: '50% 50%' property.I just removed it and everything worked. (with a few bugs, but the problem in the question is resolved).

    So I just leave the answer here for the future.
