3.11. Import definitions

This function is available from the document menu .

Item Description
Image task-doc-importdef.svg

This function allows you to import definitions declared in another svg file.

Load a SVG document.

Then the panel displays two lists:

  • the element types defined in the document
  • their components

Select the types of elements (tags) and the definitions to import.

The panel does not show the elements already defined in the document.

This function allows you to maintain a catalog of definitions (gradients, patterns, markers, filters, symbols) reusable.
