I have checked the list of file formats supported at this page: http://www.xequte.com/imageen/info/Index.html
svg is mentioned in this list, but I was not able to load a svg(vector) file. Is there anything I am missing? Thanks for your answer

Just realized that I need ImageMagick.dll to do that. Nevermind.

Hi Francesco
Yes, that is correct. You need the ImageMagick plug-in to load the following formats (saving is not supported):
PCD, CUT, AVS, CIN, DOT, DPX, FITS, FPX, HDF, MAT, MIFF, MTV, PALM, PCL, PICT, PIX, PWP, RLA, SGI, SUN, SVG, TTF, VIFF, XBM, XCF, XPM

That a format is supported by ImageMagick doesn't necessarily mean that it is also supported by ImageEN - even if you link in the imagemagick.dll. SVG is such a format, and as far as I know, MTV, PALM, MNG and a whole bunch of others are, too. I had been discussing this issue with Fabrizio probably two years ago already.

Hi Uwe
Can you give me more information on this.
I have not had any problems displaying SVG files with ImageEn.

Nigel it's great to know that the svg works with imagemagick. I wonder if it possible to read the transparency information as well. I explain myself: the idea is to use the svg as a layer where the non-rendered part is the transparency (the alpha channel). I still haven't tried the integration of imagemagick, which demo should I check to help me get faster started?

My apologies regarding the SVG format - it seems that since I've talked to Fabrizio last about this subject, quite a few things have changed when it comes to the support of ImageMagick. A few file formats that couldn't be loaded in the past can now be successfully opened, while others are still not working even if ImageMagick supports them.
I did a quick test now with a slightly modified "PhotoEn v2" demo, and here is what I've found (haven't checked all formats, though):
ART, AVS, MTV, OTB, PALM, PDB and PTIF file formats cannot be opened by ImageEN.
Hope that helps Uwe |

Hi Uwe
Thanks for the info. I'll remove AVS, MTV and PALM from the supported formats list.

Also note that SVG loading is now automatically supported on Delphi 12 and newer if you add Vcl.Skia to the uses clause of any unit in your project.
