I am happy to announced that a new version of Ab2d.ReaderSvg is available.
As shown in the image above, the ReaderSvg now supports textPath svg element that positions text on a referenced path element.
Another very interesting new feature is a new GetElementSvgText method that returns the original svg text of the element specified with its name. This way it is possible to read data from svg file that are not recognized by ReaderSvg. The following image shows svg text for the selected element in ViewerSvg:
There are also some other great new features and fixes:
- Added support for vertical text (glyph-orientation-vertical svg property).
- Improved support for rounder corners on rectangles in case when only rx or only ry is specified - in this case the other value is set to the same value.
- Fixed reading text decorations (Underline and Strikethrough).
- Added support for reading metafiles embedded into image's base64 encoded string.
- Added support for reading images in foreignObject created in Microsoft Visio.
- Added ReadForeignObjects property to Ab2d.ReaderSvg that enables or disables reading foreignObject elements (enabled by default).
- Added support for reading data from number lists that end with comma - for example the following string in svg file was not read: "12, 34, 56,".
- Improved writing images in XAML. They are now written in more clear format. Also fixed setting Source for images that are created from foreign objects.
- Fixed writing new line characters in XAML.
As alwasy, the customers can get the latets version from their User Account page. Others can try the new version with downloading the evaluation version.
And if yuo find a svg file that is not read correctly, please send it to me and I will my best to improve ReaderSvg.
