title: Adding snippets
for: developers
about: Shows you how to add snippets to your pattern
---
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
<Tip>
See [Using attributes](/howtos/code/attributes/) for details on how to set attributes.
</Tip>
Below is an example of the available snippets, and the use of the `data-scale` and `data-rotate` attributes:
<Example pattern="rendertest" caption="Overview of available snippets" options={{ colors: false, text: false, macros: false, circles: false, widthHd: false }} />
