Hi Kenneth,
I happen to know the person who developed this contrib (a former
colleague) and most likely he will not be answering your question. He
moved on to greener pastures and is not really involved in Qooxdoo anymore.
I did use the contrib a little bit to create a widget containing an
empty svg element. From there I filled in the svg using d3.js
(http://www.d3js.org/). Personally I think this is easier way to go,
because d3 stays close to the javascript SVG API, yet abstracting away
the difficult parts. Personally I think it is a nice complementary tool
set to qooxdoo.
If you have any questions concerning using d3 in Qooxdoo or d3 in
general, just ask. I have been using it for 2.5 years now and its been a
blast!
kind regards,
Sanne

I just started playing with the qooxdoo SVG contrib and so far
everything looks great.
My first hiccup came with the svg.text.Text element. The element
appears with the right text and in the right position and the font
color matches the fill color (not exactly what I expected) but none of
the other parameters seem to be being honored: font size, weight,
family, style, stretch.
This, btw, reminds me of what happened when I tried just putting SVG
in a normal index.html as a baby step: it actually worked except the
text came out un-parameterized. I then went with the index.html from
the actual example which had the necessary namespacing (sorry if that
is not quite right) and then the text got rendered according to the
parameters.
I tried doing something in the playground -- http://tiny.cc/0m48rx --
but of course the SVG contrib is not present so it just dies on svg
being null.
Q1: /is/ there a way to load the SVG contrib in the playground?
Q2: does anyone have a working example of svg.text.Text?
Q3: does anyone see anything wrong with my example? FWIW, I did get
all the shapes to work.
Cheers, Ken
ps. I am loading SVG dynamically from the contrib library so should
have the latest/greatest. Otherwise I am on version 4.0.1 and building
a desktop application.
