SVGLength.ConvertToSpecifiedUnits
SVGLength.ConvertToSpecifiedUnits method
Preserve the same underlying stored value, but reset the stored unit identifier to the given unitType. Object attributes unitType, valueInSpecifiedUnits and valueAsString might be modified as a result of this method. For example, if the original value were “0.5cm” and the method was invoked to convert to millimeters, then the unitType would be changed to SVG_LENGTHTYPE_MM, valueInSpecifiedUnits would be changed to the numeric value 5 and valueAsString would be changed to “5mm”.

| Parameter | Type | Description |

Exceptions
| exception | condition |

| dOMException | Code NOT_SUPPORTED_ERRRaised if unitType is SVG_LENGTHTYPE_UNKNOWN or not a valid unit type constant (one of the other SVG_LENGTHTYPE_* constants defined on this interface). | 
| dOMException | Code NO_MODIFICATION_ALLOWED_ERRRaised when the length corresponds to a read only attribute or when the object itself is read only. |
