How can I use SVG icons in U++ cause the current icon looks pixelated. Can I import SVG icons for tool icons?

Hello Sayem,

Here is example of using SVG. You could play with it compiling examples/SVGView. In order to load SVG you need to use RenderSVGImage function provided by Painter package. It will create image for you for a given size. This image can be used to set icon for example in the toolbar. In order to do not call RenderSVGImage too many times, I highly recommend to cache your images in memory.

Here is code responsible from loading SVG, the parameters are size and path to SVG file:

Size sz = Size(64, 64);
Image img = RenderSVGImage(sz, svg);

Thank you for the help. I was experimenting with the SVG viewer before but could not understand how to put it to tool icon. This helps a lot
