Getting started with the Symbol Editor, you learned how to manipulate graphic objects,
parameters and conditions. In this section, you will see how to apply
these techniques to symbols containing imported images.
The Symbol Editor can import the following file
types:
PNG, JPG, and GIF format files are static images. This
means that their appearance cannot be edited directly using the Symbol Editor.
However, static images have a smaller memory footprint. You use static
images to create light symbols. For more information, see
Designing for performance.
Both IVL and SVG files contain vector graphics. Using
the Symbol Editor, you can edit and add conditions to each object
contained in an imported vector graphic.
