Summary

The goal of this extension is to provide an FXG format export from the File>Save AS dialog. Since Adobe has abandoned SVG support in its Flash applications, Flash developer need a way to create their drawings with Inkscape.

Release Note

Initial XSLT file done. Initial unit and global tests done.

Design

This export extension uses the XSLT extension system (already used by XAML export).

TODO

More tests. Some improvements (workarounds for gradients limitations?). Implement some of the FXG improvements to the XAML export.

Discussion

Known limitations

Some SVG features are not are partially supported by FXG. When possible, a workaround has been implemented in the export filter to render the missing features. Some elements that can't be created with Inkscape are not supported.

Root level and groups

  • [Partial] Limited support for nested SVG elements (the first one is converted to Graphics and the others to Groups).
  • [Not supported] Viewbox.

Defs

  • [Partial] Limited support for switch (always pass).
  • [Not supported] Use.
  • [Not supported] Markers.
  • [Not supported] Patterns.
  • [Not supported] Symbols.

Transforms

  • [Not supported] Skew.
  • [Not supported] Multiple values rotation (only the first one is converted).

Filters

  • [Partial] Support limited to blurs.

Gradients and color

  • [Not supported] Gradient positioning, shaping and transformation. They are currently centered and restricted to the object bounding box.
  • [Not supported] CurrentColor value not supported

Stroke

  • Mitterlimit doesn't give the same result.
  • [Not supported] Dasharrays and dashoffset.
  • [Not supported] Butt linecap.

Clip and mask

  • [Not supported] clipPathUnits="objectBoundingBox" and maskUnits="objectBoundingBox".
  • [Not supported] clipping and masking with text.

Text

  • [Partial] Text rotation (0, 90, 180 and 270 degrees only) -> not implemented.
  • [Partial] Font weight (normal and bold only) -> values under 500 are considered normal, the others bold.
  • [Partial] Whitespace handling, issues with xml:whitespace='preserve'.
  • [Not supported] Generic fonts.
  • [Not supported] Embedded fonts (in defs).
  • [Not supported] Character rotation.
  • [Not supported] Character positioning (x and y).
  • [Not supported] Text-anchor.
  • [Not supported] Text stroke.
  • [Not supported] flowRoot.

Shapes

  • [Not supported] Polygons.
  • [Not supported] Polylines.
  • [Not supported] Elliptical arc curve path commands (workaround: convert ellipse and circle to path first).

Images

  • [Not supported] Embedded images (base64).
  • [Not supported] Preserve ratio.

Other

  • [Partial] Limited support for layers blend mode.
  • [Not supported] Object title and description.
  • [Not supported] em, ex and % units (FXG only knows pixel values)
  • [Not supported] No RDF and metadata support.
