Rick , thanks for the response , Jonathan , sorry for the trouble. I will explain the requirement more clearly ...I am working on application to create mobile themes for various mobile devices . We are using Java/Eclipse/Batik to build the same .
In the tool , user has the option to edit the svg files using an external editor like inkscape/illustrator. Currently for editing the svg icons , user need to edit each of the icons individually. So we thought of providing a mass editing functionality . User can select multiple svg icons and system will display a set of common shapes present in the icons . So we thinking of various ways of extracting the common shapes from svg documents like ,creating a set of rules, which states, the different attributes should match, for the basic shapes to be considered identical or similar. This is the scenario , i am trying to find a solution. I am looking for a better way so that i can extract common shapes from SVG documents Thanks again ----- Original Message ---- From: Jonathan Chetwynd <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: cybernaut cybernaut <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: [email protected] Sent: Thursday, January 4, 2007 2:41:01 PM Subject: Re: Extracting common shapes from SVG documents In general it is a bad idea to copy different groups. your question is best directed to [email protected] Could you describe your intention more specifically? it's not immediately evident what your requirement is. cheers Jonathan Chetwynd On 4 Jan 2007, at 04:36, cybernaut cybernaut wrote: Hi , I am working on an application , which uses SVG extensively as icons as well as background images .
