| got this error when try to generate a vector asset from local svg files from AndroidStudio 2.2, Ubuntu 14.04
Could not generate a preview
In icon.svg
ERROR@ line 6 <defs> is not supported
ERROR@ line 25 <use> is not supported
Here is the svg icon
I google and found that happened because AndroidStudio doesn't support <defs>
, <use>
...
But I don't know how to fix it?
Can I change <defs>
to another tag that AndroidStudio support?
Or I never can generate vector asset from this SVG file?
Any help or suggestion would be great appreciated.
Android Studio includes a tool called Vector Asset Studio that helps you add material icons and import Scalable Vector Graphic (SVG) and Adobe Photoshop Document (PSD) files into your project as vector drawable resources.
A VectorDrawable is a vector graphic defined in an XML file as a set of points, lines, and curves along with its associated color information. The major advantage of using a vector drawable is image scalability.
android:viewportWidth. Used to define the width of the viewport space. Viewport is basically the virtual canvas where the paths are drawn on. android:viewportHeight. Used to define the height of the viewport space.
I was having the same problem when importing svg directly from sketch into the android studio, I used this tool to convert it to vector drawable and then importing it.
Your SVG uses a <linearGradient>
and, to make the faint shadow, it uses an SVG filter (<filter>
). Neither of these are supported by VectorDrawables. So any solution would involve removing those.
It looks like the file was created in Sketch. You can try removing those items in Sketch and trying the import again.
If that still doesn't work then you may have to manually fix the other element that is not supported by the importer: <use>
. The good news is that it is easy to work around.
I've included a manually edited version of the file below that fixes those three issues. It should import into Android Studio okay, but I don't know whether it meets your aesthetic needs or not.
