inkscape svg files?

in General Discussion  •  Other  •  3 years ago  
hi!
i would like to use PShape.
the only app that i have that creates svg files is inkscape.
i've tried creating several svgs - and even the simplest thing such as a square or circle cannot be loaded with loadShape.
instead i get a ton of errors
is there a known issue or is something whacky in my set up?
if it is a known issue are there any other open source apps that create svg files that are processing friendly?

thanks!

so... here's what i found out.
1. need to save the file as "plain svg" instead of "inkscape svg"
2. seems to be ok as long as the drawing is simple!
I found  similar problems, with the more 'complicated' inkscape namespace Amaya is a simple alternative svg editor.

thanks! downloading amaya and will try that out next!
