Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) 1.2 Tiny
SVG Tiny 1.2 is a module of the Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) 1.2 specification. It is designed specifically for devices with limited resources, such as mobile phones, PDAs, and other portable devices. SVG Tiny 1.2 provides a basic set of SVG features suitable for implementations on devices with constrained processing power and memory.
Some key features of SVG Tiny 1.2 include:
- Basic Shape Elements: SVG Tiny 1.2 supports a variety of basic shape elements, including rectangles, circles, ellipses, lines, and polygons. These shapes can be defined, styled, and transformed to create simple graphics.
- Styling and Coloring: SVG Tiny 1.2 allows the use of CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) properties to define colors, gradients, patterns, and transparency. Styles can be applied to individual elements or defined globally using style sheets.
- Text Display: SVG Tiny 1.2 includes support for displaying text within graphics. It allows the use of various fonts, text sizes, alignments, and decorations. However, advanced text features like flowing text or text manipulation may not be fully supported in this module.
- Transforms: SVG Tiny 1.2 supports basic transformations such as translations, rotations, scaling, and skewing. These transformations can be applied to individual elements or groups of elements to achieve different visual effects.
- Basic Animation: SVG Tiny 1.2 allows for basic animations and transitions, including changes in position, size, and color. Simple animations can be defined using keyframe animation or by specifying start and end values.
- Image Support: SVG Tiny 1.2 supports the inclusion of raster images within SVG documents, allowing for richer graphics by combining vector and raster elements.
- Document Structure: SVG Tiny 1.2 defines the structure of an SVG document, including the root element, groups, and nested elements. It enables the organization and grouping of graphical elements to create more complex compositions.
SVG Tiny 1.2 is specifically designed to provide a lightweight and efficient subset of SVG functionality for resource-constrained devices. While it may have fewer features compared to other SVG variants, it still enables the creation of scalable vector graphics on devices with limited processing power and memory.
It's important to note that the specific level of support for SVG Tiny 1.2 may vary across different implementations, as some features may be partially or fully supported depending on the device or software used.
