I understand that Synfig is for animation so it’s not necessary for it to follow SVG standards as there would be no need to export for SVG.īut just considering the above example animating I wanted to scale the inner vertex points larger than the outer vertex points (i.e inner vertex are now outer vertex). You can see the above svg, White frame is a single object, the inner vertex points are looped and outer are also looped and they fill the shape between the inner vertices and outer vertices, anything like this is not possible at all in Synfig, there is workaround for this (you can create a shape and set it’s blend method to alpha over and you will have that hold).

You can also use raster images in Synfig, not necessary that they must be vector.Īlso Synfig it self doesn’t follow all SVG standards (for vector shapes), for example. Maybe the next development version.īut converting of my raster drawings is tedious, I don’t know if it’ll reach stable version soon, though.

I detected it recently and now I submitted a change proposal for Synfig. Other way (currently not supported) – This is how your file is: However, it’s (now) more common to write such data as the attribute itself – it’s also allowed by SVG standard. The exact problem here is Inkscape defines the fill and stroke info in the element style attribute. So, for the sake of simplification (and author’s sanity I suppose), the focus was support Inkscape SVG pattern. Inkscape follows the (extensive and flexible) SVG standard, but the generated files always follow a pattern. Synfig SVG importer is based on Inkscape SVG.
