SVG in vb.net?
« on: September 23, 2018, 09:43:51 PM »
Archie, it is possible to animate .svg files in vb.net?  I am playing around with creating .svg images in inkscape and would like to know if its possible to say rotate a gauge needle or other animation in an AHMI application.  It looks like these are mostly used in web applications but came across this site and wondered what else is possible.  Thanks.

To my knowledge the .NET Winform controls do not support SVG except for the web browser, which is not very useful for anymore that static images.

Maybe creating an AnimatingPictureBox that is based on one of the available open source SVG viewers could be a good project.
