I need to display a vector drawable which is present in drawable folder in a WebView. This is for a native android app.
If I use the code:
<img src="file:///android_res/drawable/example.png"/>
It works for png/jpeg images, but is there any way to display vector drawable (with .xml extension) inside a WebView?
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance

I want to create a Splash screen for my android application for this purpose i create ".svg" file by using three different ".png" images using Adobe XD. bust when i import ".svg" file through vector Asset it only show background of ".svg" image it does not show other images which i used to create this file for splash screen. I also used this http://inloop.github.io/svg2android/ to get proper ".xml" file and past it in drawable folder but still no change. I am attaching images of my error this is where error is shown

The Android Studio SVG importer only supports a subset of SVG. Remember that it is converting the SVG to a VectorDrawable. So only things that work in a VectorDrawable can be imported from the SVG. Basically that means you must stick to just the vector shapes - rectangles, ellipses, paths etc
See: Which SVG elements are supported by Android studio and which are not?
If your SVG only contains PNG images, then there is no point in using an SVG anyway. Just import your PNGs to your project and use an ImageView to display them.
If you really need to display an SVG. Then use a library that properly supports SVGs. Such as my one: AndroidSVG.
i am creating a bottom navigation bar for a android app following this guide
however, when using svg in android:icon and building it, it shows a error
Error: The file name must end with .xml or .png
i found out that i needed to move the svg to the assets folder. but if i move it, i can't use the svg... any help is much appreciated, thank you
The answer above gives a link to convert pictures from SVG to XML, but this tool is not for free(only for one SVG file)
So why not to use ANDROID build-in tool?
The best way is to go to res-> drawable-> Vector Asset -> Local file (SVG, PSD) ->select your SVG file from the place you save it.
and you are done :)
Android uses vector drawables which are xml files rather than SVG's.
You will have to convert the SVG to a vector drawable. Many ways of doing it but a handy web tool is available here.
It won't do complex SVG's but copes with the majority.
i have converted a psd file into svg, it works good at browser but not works on android native applications, how can i do this?
ImageView imageView = (ImageView)findViewById(R.id.img1);
imageView.setLayerType(View.LAYER_TYPE_SOFTWARE, null);
//Parse the SVG file from the resource
SVG svg = SVGParser.getSVGFromResource(getResources(), R.raw.android);
//Get a drawable from the parsed SVG and apply to ImageView
imageView.setImageDrawable(svg.createPictureDrawable());
This is the code i used to display svg image. it works when i used simple svg images, but it not works converted svg images using illustrator . how can i do?
I am guessing that your SVG just contains the image from the PSD. Is that the case?
If all that the SVG contains is a bitmap image, then you are not really using SVGs for their proper purpose (vector art). You would be better off just converting the PSD to a JPEG or PNG and loading that into an ImageView.
However, if you are definitely sure you want to load an SVG, then the solution depends on which SVG library you are using.
svg-android: As far as I know, it doesn't support <image> elements, so there is no solution
AndroidSVG: supports <image>, so it should work as long as the device has the memory to load the image. If the image is embedded in the file, you should be fine. If it references an external image, you will need to pass in an SVGExternalFileResolver so it knows how to find the bitmap.

i am trying to add an image in my android app. I am using html. I have my photos in the res/drawable folder. I use the code img src= but i just get a question mark over the image. What am i doing wrong?
Try using:
<img src="file:///android_res/drawable/image.png" />
You do not need to put the qualifier for the drawable in the SRC attribute.
i need to create a object Image from import javax.microedition.lcdui.Image; using a file .png placed in drawable folder. How can i do that?
Thanks
Since this Android and not JavaME, you cannot create a javax.microedition.lcdui.Image. You would create a Bitmap instead. Here's a decent tutorial on working with images in Android.
