SVG developments

I did 69 and 78, everything works in nextGen,

Code:

---

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<!-- Generator: Adobe Illustrator 24.1.2, SVG Export Plug-In . SVG Version: 6.00 Build 0)  -->
<svg version="1.1" id="normal" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" x="0px" y="0px"
        viewBox="0 0 69 69" enable-background="new 0 0 69 69" xml:space="preserve">
<g>

iGO the main thing is to know what size is on the canvas.

BIRBANTE file svg

Code:

---

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<!-- Generator: Adobe Illustrator 16.0.0, SVG Export Plug-In . SVG Version: 6.00 Build 0)  -->
<!DOCTYPE svg PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD SVG 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/1.1/DTD/svg11.dtd">
<svg version="1.1" id="Livello_1" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" x="0px" y="0px"
        width="60px" height="60px" viewBox="0 0 60 60" enable-background="new 0 0 60 60" xml:space="preserve">
<g id="normal">

I tried the same with or without sizes, I didn’t find any difference

Code:

---

width="60px" height="60px"

Good morning,

Small precision for the Nextgen/Luna versions:
The dimensions of your "svg" file do not matter, because these dimensions are defined in the "codes" of the navigation software, or of the "skin".
For example, if your file is 500x500 and the "window" reserved for it is determined in the "60x60 codes", then your 500x500 svg file will be automatically resized to 60x60!

Of course, it is preferable to respect the dimensions provided by the various original files .......

Of course, 100 is closer to 60 for reducing and reading by the program, and if the files are close to the original sizes, then the program will spend less time resizing the image. The question is different, I suspect that the time to reduce the picture is almost negligible. Therefore, I think the canvas size is not important, but the file size is important.
:classic:

I agree with you.
It is preferable to use a file drawn in vector, rather than using "png" files which have been vectorized (like the bus above) whose weight will be multiplied by 2, 3, 4 or even more !

But each one does as he wants or as he can ......... ;)

Where are the speedcam.zip files with these icons?
I (unfortunately) edit all your speedcam.zip because your icons have become default in Pongo Skins, but the "normal" icon size is 60x60.

Every time I have to prove what I say so I enlarged one icon to 69x69 and one to 78x78....... well, this is the result:

Not certainly in that way
60

69

78

Don't cheat, in Nextgen (Israel) with Pongo Skin those deformations appear in both Speedcam Test and Alert Type screens.

Alain, or someone else who is familiar with svgs, please do these simple tests, with Nextgen and not with Luna.

Thank you for all your comments.
I've been reading a lot about this, there was even a topic here on gpspower where there was a video teaching how to make the first SVG from speedcam to nextgen, however the author or youtube deleted the video.

@Andrey Form
I have been reading @LouBouha tutorials, in fact it is on them that I have based myself to learn, in fact it is to thank @LouBouha, because his tutorials are essential for those who start in SVG, maybe not the best method, but to learn they are interesting.
Your illustrator codes have given me interesting information, thank you.

@Birbante
I have been reading your posts and have them saved, for example these:

With all due respect, because I know you understand the subject and I understand that it is not necessary to use two types of illustrator, read this comment by batiskaf:

Thanks for your post, especially the info about the resolutions, it gave me new ideas to make my first SVG inventions.

@Alain57
Hi, any user who participates in gpspower knows that you know a lot about SVG too, I have been watching your works.
However, @Andrey Form understood what I meant and builds on that:

Hi,
... 1 way, converting bitmap images to vector format (svg), this method is the fastest, but the files are large...

---

I know there is a table in illustrator to lock the size (enlargement) of an SVG for web pages, so I thought there was something similar for iGO NG, with your very useful information, after all it is iGO that manages the size. With your replies I now have enough information to create my first SVGs.

Tank you.

@ BIRBANTE

There is no need to perform any tests. What you are saying is correct....
If your window is for example 100x100 and the image you install in this window is 60x60, then it is quite logical that when displayed your image will be smaller than if it was 100x100....

It's not exactly like you say, thank goodness "scripta manent" but being a moderator he can always correct everything.....

In speedcam.zip files the images of the menus, "speedwarn_normal" must strictly be 60x60.

so I demonstrated that if you make the svg icons larger than 60x60 only what is inside the 60x60 appears, the rest does not appear.

Go ahead and turn the facts and prove me wrong......
