SVG not displaying when the sidebar is closed - css

Question

I have a sidebar that shows and hides content depending on the collapse status.
Here is a LIVE JS FIDDLE
Instead of using icons, I would like to use SVG images but if I use SVG images there is a jumpy effect during the transition and the SVG disappears when the sidebar is closed.
What I've tried:
.sidebar.close .nav-links li a .sidebarSvg{
opacity: 1;
}
I thought changing the opacity to 1 would do the job but I am doing something wrong.
I also tried with display: block; but it did not work.
Is my SVG wrong?
UPDATE:
I also tried placing the svg outside of the <a> but that makes the jumpy effect worst during the toggle transition.

Answer 1

try this :
.sidebar.close .nav-links li .iocn-link {
width:300px;
}
Now You can try thsi :
let arrow = document.querySelectorAll(".arrow");
for (var i = 0; i < arrow.length; i++) {
arrow[i].addEventListener("click", (e)=>{
let arrowParent = e.target.parentElement.parentElement;//selecting main parent of arrow
arrowParent.classList.toggle("showMenu");
});
}
let sidebar = document.querySelector(".sidebar");
let sidebarBtn = document.querySelector(".bx-menu");
console.log(sidebarBtn);
sidebarBtn.addEventListener("click", ()=>{
sidebar.classList.toggle("close");
});
