Converting SVG Images to Symbols

INDEX PREVIOUS NEXT

When you ungroup an SVG image, the Symbol Editor gives you access to all the objects contained in the graphic. To ungroup the svgprogressbar symbol created in Importing a Vector Graphic, do the following:

0. Open the svgprogressbar symbol. For more information, see Opening a Symbol and Palette.
1. Right-click the progressbar object.
2. Select Ungroup from the shortcut menu.

As shown in Figure 2.3, the Symbol Outline pane shows all the objects contained inside progressbar. When an SVG image is ungrouped, the Symbol Editor gives each object a name automatically. An ungrouped image is no longer in SVG or IVL format, it is a standard ILOG JViews symbol; the Image tab is no longer displayed in the Styling Customizer when the SVG root object is selected.
