Hi!

I want to try to use the svg library in APDE but I can’t find the zip (with the proper format) to import it. Does anyone know?

Thanks!

Hi.  
What SVG library are you referring to? SVG files can be imported as shapes without a special library. If it is the P8gGraphicsSVG library, it’s deprecated for Processing 3, let alone APDE

There is a heavy dependence on the AWT packages in this library, and they are not available on Android, so I’m afraid that’s not possible. But if you are interested you can write the file yourself. [Here is a start](https://css-tricks.com/svg-path-syntax-illustrated-guide/) learning the syntax, and on the [vanseodesign site](https://www.google.com/search?newwindow=1&sxsrf=ALeKk00oyGNfE26WbH3erDhqPiR2lvbK_g%3A1605963164213&ei=nA25X7S0DIm-5OUPtpajuAk&q=svg+site%3Avanseodesign.com&oq=svg+site%3Avanseodesign.com&gs_lcp=CgZwc3ktYWIQDDIECAAQRzIECAAQRzIECAAQRzIECAAQRzIECAAQRzIECAAQRzIECAAQRzIECAAQR1AAWABguqkmaABwAngAgAEAiAEAkgEAmAEAqgEHZ3dzLXdpesgBCMABAQ&sclient=psy-ab&ved=0ahUKEwi08rL_1pPtAhUJH7kGHTbLCJcQ4dUDCA0), you can also find a lot of articles.

Thanks Noel!

For the moment I’ll settle for exporting svg to the desktop
