I should like to point out that when LiveCode imports SVG files is mucks up a lot of the colour infomation:

I have redone the whole stack using a trial version of LC 9.6.9

These colours WILL show up in OpenXTalk: however, to import them like this rather than the
crappy black-and-random-colour format in my previous version you will need access to the
commercial LC 9.6.9

That's a real shame as I certainly won't be going anywhere near any commercial versions of Livecode. 9.6.3 community edition is the last version I'll ever install of their product.

I would have liked the colour SVGs, but I guess I'll continue to use transparent pngs.

Those coloured SVGs WILL display properly in LC 963.

I downloaded a trial
version of LC 969 and did what I wanted to do (i.e. rejig 'Gift 4') and chucked the thing away.

You could also "have a bash" with Mark Waddingham's helpful suggestion:

Code: Select all

1. Open a completely unmodified version of LiveCode Community 9.6.3
2. In the message box do:
        edit script of stack "com.livecode.library.drawing"
3. Search for:
        "^url\s*\(\s*#([a-zA-Z][a-zA-Z0-9]*)*\)(.*)$"
    and replace it with:
        "^url\s*\(\s*#([a-zA-Z][a-zA-Z0-9_-]*)\)(.*)$"
4. Save the script and convey it to someone appropriate.

Mark Waddingham's script change does EXACTLY what is required, God Bless him.
