Hello,

I would like to save the canvas as SVG.  
I found this: [https://editor.p5js.org/dannyrozin/sketches/r1djoVow7](https://editor.p5js.org/dannyrozin/sketches/r1djoVow7)  
But it does not work for Canvas content created as Image f.e. [http://www.mikolaskova.cz/testscreen/10/](http://www.mikolaskova.cz/testscreen/10/)  
Is this right? So I would have to create these Pixelstructures directly to the canvas? Without creating an image (which is usefull for scaling etc.)

Best regards,

Adriana
