otuncelli Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 (edited) This is a paint.net filetype plugin for loading SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) and its compressed variant SVGZ files. SVG elements can be rendered as a flat image file or each on a separate layer. This plugin also provides basic image tracing (raster to vector conversion) functionality which works best with black and white drawings. You may export the tracing result as SVG or Paint.NET Shape. Prerequisites paint.net 5.0.9 or later Download links The easiest and recommended way to install the plugin is using the installer. It supports Store and Classic versions of Paint.NET. If you're using the Portable version of Paint.NET please use the manual installation method. 💾 Installer SvgFileTypePlugin_setup.exe 💾 Manual Installation SvgFileTypePlugin.zip How to install ⚠️ Note: Before install make sure you don't have any other file type plugin installed handling the same file extensions: .svg, .svgz 👉 To auto install (recommended) the plugin perform the following steps: Download and run SvgFileTypePlugin_setup.exe Follow the steps of the setup wizard. 👉 To manually install the plugin perform the following steps: Make sure paint.net is not running. Download and extract SvgFileTypePlugin.zip If you're using Classic version of paint.net: Copy the SvgFileTypePlugin folder to the <paint.net>\FileTypes directory (Default location is C:\Program Files\paint.net\FileTypes). If you're using Microsoft Store version of paint.net: Copy the SvgFileTypePlugin folder to the <Documents>\paint.net App Files\FileTypes directory. Done. You may start paint.net. Supported languages English Turkish Feel free to submit translations for the other languages. You may find the reference English .resx file here. Old versions I do not support or provide binary links for the old releases. However, you may download the archived source code and compile it yourself.

Juggernaut- Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 Quote To install the plugin perform the following steps: Put the DLL in the <Paint.NET>\FileTypes directory (default location is C:\Program Files\paint.net\FileTypes) For the Windows Store version of Paint.NET, put the DLL in the <Documents>\paint.net App Files\FileTypes directory Restart Paint.NET if you have it open I have installed the plugin as described above. But the Scalable Vector Graphics ( SVG, SVGZ ) file types are not showing up in the file type drop down menu of the ''Save As'' dialogue box. Please let me know how to resolve the situation.

Yes, that's exactly right... because Paint.NET is a raster image editor and not a vector image editor. If you want to save a vector image in a vector format, you should use a vector editor, like InkScape. 1 Quote Download: BoltBait's Plugin Pack | CodeLab | and a Free Computer Dominos Game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndrewDavid Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 Well done @otuncelli Issue resolved. Once I removed the other plugin, yours took over. No need to scroll down and select filetype. If the file is a true SVG, paint opens it automatically. Thank you for the updated plugin. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThreadSnake Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 (edited) This is the SVG file I am importing: (2nd path is cropped out because it is long) Should the dialog box say n/a, 0, n/a for Size settings while importing this file? It is reading successfully, but I cannot edit any Viewport and ViewBox settings, and changing Canvas beyond 500 only adds transparent pixels to the side and bottom and I cannot resize the actual rendering. I don't have the other old SVG filetype plugin installed. There isn't any information on how this plugin is supposed to work, so I don't know if this is abnormal or not.

otuncelli Posted August 10, 2021 Author Share Posted August 10, 2021 (edited) Hi @ThreadSnake This could be related to an issue with SVG.NET library internally used by the plugin which does the actual SVG reading. Issue is here: https://github.com/svg-net/SVG/issues/837 I'll check this again more thoroughly. If it's something I can fix, I'll update the plugin. Viewbox and Viewport fields are just informational fields. You can't edit them. Thanks for reporting. As a workaround, adding "viewBox" attribute to svg definition seems to fix the problem. <svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="500" height="500" viewBox="0 0 500 500"> Edited August 10, 2021 by otuncelli 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should have checked that before posting, but no version was indicated in the original post and of course I did not read the whole thread... 😛 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
