Hi,

Here I am trying to visualize a SVG figure generic enough to cover many other SVG figures. Currently I use the SVG logo: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/0/02/SVG_logo.svg which contains SVG paths, rect, circles and polygons.

First I tried to parse with the Athens-SVG included in Pharo 6.1:

AthensSceneView new scene: (AthensSVGConverter fromURL: 'https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/0/02/SVG_logo.svg'); openInWindow

but fails with: "Error: cannot resolve url: http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/"

So I quickly switched to Roassal SVG.

The SVG examples does not cover for example specified colors but they are replaced with Color random.

Also using this expression it seems there is no support for "circle" type.

RTSVGEntity withAllSubclasses collect: [ : s | s hasSubclasses not ifTrue: [ s new type ] ] as: Set) reject: #isNil

with that in mind I tried to parse the SVG logo with the following terrible script which only support paths but can read named or hex colors

| tree view | view := RTView new. tree := XMLDOMParser parseURL: 'https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/0/02/SVG_logo.svg'. view := RTView new. (tree allElementsSelect: [ :e | e isElementNamed: #path ]) elementsDo: [ : node | | elem color colorAtt | color := (node includesAttribute: 'fill') ifTrue: [ Color fromHexString: (((colorAtt := node attributeAt: 'fill') beginsWith: '#') ifTrue: [ colorAtt allButFirst ] ifFalse: [ colorAtt ]) ] ifFalse: [ Color random ]. elem := (RTSVGPath new path: (node attributeAt: 'd'); fillColor: color; scale: 1) element model: (node attributeAt: 'title'). elem @ RTPopup. view add: elem ]. view inspect

However adding support for circle, rect, polygon, etc. is becoming too complicated this way :)

Is there some other recommended way how to approach this?

Cheers,

Hernán
