SVG support?

[M0JXD]

Hi again @frang75 🙂

I'm just wondering if SVG image support is on the cards for NAppGUI at any point?

While PNG is more than enough, SVG would be nice as it would prevent the requirement to have multiple sizes in the apps resources, such as you have done in the "Products" demo where 16px images are used in the menus.

It would also allow NAppGUI users to more easily use the many icon sets made with Web/Mobile devs in mind, e.g. Material, Fluent and others.

I notice you're getting a few requests of late (NAppGUI seems to have a growing community of users, and rightfully so! Great work) and this is by no means an important request! Just a "would be nice" 🙂.

Thanks,

Jamie

Hi @M0JXD!

I've been thinking about adding an SVG parser for a while. In addition to the icon aspect, it can be very useful for importing/exporting drawing contexts in vector format.

Please leave this issue open in case I address this someday. As you say, NAppGUI is growing, and I maintain it in my spare time. I'm looking into adding more resources to accelerate its growth.

Thanks!
