I try changing an SVG motion path according to a html select value using JS. The path updates as expected, but the element, which uses the path as a motion path continues to move along the original path. What am I missing?
function changepath(selectObject) {
let value = selectObject.value;
let path = document.getElementById("planePath");
let plane = document.getElementById("animPath");
let rotation = "rotate(" value ")";
path.setAttribute("transform", rotation);
plane.setAttribute("transform", rotation);
}
body {
background: #eee;
}
.planePath {
opacity: 0.8;
stroke: darkslategrey;
stroke-width: 2px;
fill: none;
}
.plane {
transform: scale(0.15);
}
select {
margin-left: 2em;;
}
<svg viewBox="0 0 2000 200">
<!-- <path id="planePath" d="M 0 0 C 200 250 250 50 550 150 C 850 250 700 180 1000 200 " /> -->
<path id="planePath" d="M 50 100 c 14 -3 736 -115 1900 0" />
<g id="plane" >
<rect x="0" y="0" width="100" height="100"/>
</g>
<animateMotion xlink:href="#plane" dur="6s" repeatCount="indefinite" rotate="auto">
<mpath id="animPath" xlink:href="#planePath" />
</animateMotion>
</svg>
<select name="route" id="route" onchange="changepath(this)">
<option value="0">0°</option>
<option value="1">1°</option>
<option value="2">2°</option>
<option value="3">3°</option>
<option value="4">4°</option>
</select>

As Danny mentioned in his answer the mpath is using the untransformed path. If you need it to be transformed you can wrap both the path and the animated rect in a group and transform the group.
<svg viewBox="0 0 2000 200">
<g transform="rotate(5)">
<path id="path" fill="none" stroke="red" stroke-width="5"
d="M 50 100 c 14 -3 736 -115 1900 0" />
<rect id="block" x="0" y="0" width="20" height="20"/>
<animateMotion href="#block" dur="2s" repeatCount="indefinite"
rotate="auto" restart="always">
<mpath href="#path" />
</animateMotion>
</g>
</svg>

Looks like animateMotion mpath
can't handle the transform
<svg viewBox="0 0 2000 200">
<path id="NO_rotate" fill="none" stroke="green" stroke-width="5"
d="M 50 100 c 14 -3 736 -115 1900 0"/>
<path id="path" fill="none" stroke="red" stroke-width="5"
d="M 50 100 c 14 -3 736 -115 1900 0"
transform="rotate(5)"/>
<rect id="block" x="0" y="0" width="20" height="20"/>
<animateMotion href="#block" dur="2s" repeatCount="indefinite"
rotate="auto" restart="always">
<mpath href="#path" />
</animateMotion>
