RE: SVG   
SVG is not supported in the QNX port of WebKit. This is because GF does
not support enough of the drawing primitives needed, like a full
transformation matrix, path clipping, etc. The html canvas element is
often used with svg so I turned off the support of canvas as well. This
makes it easier for web sites to fall back to non-svg rendering. For
example the big "Telus" logo on www.telus.com.

We are working on a Skia based version of the QNX WebKit port (i.e. Skia
used instead of GF in the WebKit library) and it will soon be possible
to implement SVG support, but this has not been done yet. Canvas is
turned back on in this new version to support HTML5 canvas.

Regards,
Max

Re: RE: SVG   
Thanks for information Max,
this is great to hear. I'm thinking of a new application design:
-Control appl. C/C++
-Apache+FastCGI
-AJAX+HTML/SVG
so your WebKit port is an important part. Is it a QSS supported project and will it be sometimes part of an official QNX
 release or is it just a community work?

RE: RE: SVG   
The Skia work is QNX driven, and will be part of the upcoming QNX Screen
project.

RE: SVG   
Is there any update on SVG support?  I would like to draw a scalable graphic onto a screen in C++ and noticed that 
libImg does not claim support for SVGs.  

Any information on when or how SVG support will be added would be much appreciated.

Thanks!

Re: RE: RE: SVG   
Is the QNX port of Skia available yet from QNX? If I have QNX Screens can I expect to use this library to complement (or
 possibly replace) GF?

Also, does your actual Skia implementation use GF or something like OpenVG/GL-ES as the backend?

Thanks,

Glenn

RE: RE: RE: SVG   
Hi Glenn. Skia is currently used only in the QNX port of WebKit. It is a
purely software renderer with no hardware accelerated back end. The
client app passes the WebKit library a surface (i.e. memory buffer),
which it then attaches to a Skia canvas. The client app is then free to
use gf, gles, or whatever for the final blitting & compositing.
