Hi, I am trying to use the package org.apache.batik.transcoder.image to 
generate images of only parts of an SVG document (specific elements and their 
sub-trees). These images will then be used for Eclipse GEF/GMF figures.

I haven't found any TranscoderInput that takes an Element or a GraphicsNode as 
an input, so I'm currently trying to clone Elements, and then insert them into 
a new SVG document.

However, this doesn't seem possible as I get error messages that the cloned 
element is from the wrong document. Apparently, the clone that is created with 
cloneNode inherits the owner document from the original element. adoptNode is 
not implemented in SVGOMDocument, and importNode seems to have no effect.

What's the right way to clone an SVG element and attach it to another document 
then? Are there maybe better ways to transcode parts of a document?

Any input would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Gerrit


Element clone = (Element) elementFromDoc1.cloneNode( true );
// doc2.adoptNode( clone );
// doc2.importNode( clone, true );
doc2.getDocumentElement().appendChild( clone );
