Hi...I'd love to see a way for the "Read XML" operator to be adapted so that it can easily read SVG vector image files, broken down by image, subimage, segment, etc... It would be a great way to do image analysis!!

FYI I know there is a Java SVG parser publicly available...could this be used?:)https://xmlgraphics.apache.org/batik/

    Hi Scott,

    how would the resulting table look like?

    Excellent question:)Here's what I think would make sense..

    Original XML SVG file:


    < !DOCTYPE svg公共”——/ / W3C / / DTDSVG 1.1//EN"
    "http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/1.1/DTD/svg11.dtd">
    xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" version="1.1">
    Example triangle01- simple example of a 'path'

    A path that draws a triangle
    fill="none" stroke="blue" />
    fill="red" stroke="blue" stroke-width="3" />

    Output:

    Width, title, desc all in metadata - only paths in example set:

    path command x y x1 x2 y1 y2 width height fill stroke stroke-width

    rect 1 1 398 398 none blue

    d M 100 100

    d L 300 100

    d L 200 300

    d z red blue 3

    The key for me here is both to break out the shapes AND to de-pivot the paths.
