Hi @dataflowg thanks for the library. I'm reading a SVG file and not understanding the g-image output. Can you point me to where that is defined?

Hi @RichardLGP5

When an SVG image is read by G-Image it is first rasterized, converting the vector data to a bitmap. The resulting bitmap is a standard LabVIEW picture cluster, where the image array contains pixel data in ARGB format. This cluster can then be used with LabVIEW's picture functions such as Draw Flattened Pixmap.vi. The included example SVG Scale Example.vi shows how to load and display an SVG image.

Thank you!. That helped me figure it out. Now to see if I can convert the svg to a motion cut path for a CNC.
