Author SVG, Tk::Canvas, Tk::Zinc [Was: Idea for Dummy Display]
Christophe Mertz

Hello,

Just some words about SVG and Tk.

They were some attempts to read SVG file in perlTk by Ronan Oger.
However as the graphical model of SVG is so rich, this can hardly be
done.

As Tk::Zinc (a kind of enriched canvas) graphical model is nearer to
SVG'one I developped such a SVG reader for reading SVG files and
displaying it in a Tk::Zinc canvas. It can also generate some perl-tk
code (as a standalone application or a simple module).
This module is available on the CPAN. (Tk::Zinc::SVG2zinc)

Jack, I am not sure this answers your problem. But I think this may be
part of the solution or interest other on the mailing-list.

NB: The code of SVG2Zinc has been re-enginnered to fit into our toolkit,
named IntuiKit (not free yet...). One of the very advantage of Intuikit
is that we can read SVG designed by graphic designers on Illustraor for
producing our HMI

cheers,

christophe

Another possibility is one of the OpenGL widgets (which are
all rather alpha-ish even mine...)
But as OpenGL is 3D it is overkill.
