Re: Exporting SVG

[Dave Murray-Rust <d.murray-rust AT ed.ac.uk>]

Hi, thanks for the FileSinks suggestion, I've been experimenting, but haven't 
found a good solution.

I'm making my graph and screenshots like this:

val graph = Graphs.synchronizedGraph( new MultiGraph("Messages") )
...
val fs = new FileSinkSVG2
fs.writeAll(graph,file)

The results are:
* If I use FileSinkSVG, I get a broken SVG file - it's missing the closing 
tag, and just seems to have some lines in. (attached)
* If I use FileSinkSVG2, it falls over on dynamic styles - appears to be an 
issue in the colour calculation code[1]
* If I get rid of the dynamic styles, I get an SVG, but without any text, and 
at least some of the styling is not done (e.g. edges are not coloured). 
(attached)
* If I use FileSinkImages, I get PNGs, but the rendering is quite different 
to onscreen - I can give more details if useful.
* If I use renderer.screenshot("output.png"…), then it works fine, and I get 
lovely pictures - but I'd like to get SVGs.

It looks to me like the renderer.screenshot method will generally provide 
more accurate reproductions, as it's using exactly the same rendering code 
rather than trying to maintain a duplicate copy - I guess it's the dependency 
on Batik that makes it less desirable?

Thanks!
dave
