SVG Library

[David Bovill]

Thanks for the info. Until now I’ve been displaying SVGs in the browser widget - you might want to try that for more advanced SVGs?

I was thinking more of creating svgs using LiveCode. My use case is multiple coloured lines - I don’t want to use too many graphic controls so I thought I’d create a single SVG.

I want D3 for LiveCode :)
