[oXygen-user] Integrating an SVG editor with oXygen

[practice innovation]

Hi Bob,

 

I saw George already answered to your question this early morning.

 

With the extension George mentioned you are able to edit embedded SVG images
too. 

So if you add an empty SVG-Element to your content and execute that
function, you are able to create a new SVG image.

That’s not nice at the moment, but it’s not a hard work enhancing this
functionality that way.

This functionality works with any SVG editor (Inkscape and Adobe Illustrator
are used in my projects) and it works with any XML flavor which supports
embedded SVG (not DITA only).

SVG images are always embedded to your XML content file and aren’t
referenced to file system.

 

Our first thinking of implementing this extension was a reuse of existing
images in different contexts. You want to create one single image, enhance
it and use it in different manners. As this SVG is embedded we don’t think
about any reuse.

Perhaps in DITA it could make sense to enhance the reuse potential by using
conref functionality, but this of course depends on the requirements,
concepts and processes.

 

I’m not sure about your use case(s). Could you provide more information,
please.

 

Best Regards

Markus Wiedenmaier
