After using the [shorthand ](/howtos/code/shorthand/ ) call,

`Snippet` contains the path constructor, while `snippets` is a reference to `part.snippets` ,
which is where you should store your paths.
Things will now *just work* when you do this:
```js
snippets.logo = new Snippet('logo', points.logoAnchor);
```
You can scale and rotate a snippet by setting the `data-scale` and `data-rotate` attributes respectively.

* **data-scale** : Either a single scale factor, or a set of 2 scale factors for the X and Y axis respectively. See [the SVG scale transform ](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/SVG/Attribute/transform#Scale ) for details.
* **data-rotate** : A rotation in degrees. The center of the rotation will be the snippet's anchor point

Below is an example of the available snippets, and the use of the `data-scale` and `data-rotate` attributes:
