    Hi,

    I wanted to create an application which run on Linux environment. This application has to handle multiple images of SVG or any vector format. This images has to be scaled to the wish of the user and the detailing should not be lost. Can Qt be used for the development of such an application. How supportive is Qt for image handling. Will Qt support svg file images to it potential. And will I be able to run a Qt application at the boot of a Linux system startup, Even the desktop is not required to be loaded.

    Thank you and Regards.

      Hi
      Qt should be able to scale SVG.

      • or any vector format.
        Only if you use some libs for it. Qt dont support many vector formats besides SVG

      • will I be able to run a Qt application at the boot of a Linux system startup, Even the desktop is not required to be loaded.

      Yes but you will need an Xserver or similar.
      and do note that open Qt has less options than pay for Qt in this area.
      https://doc.qt.io/QtForDeviceCreation-5.12/qtb2-index.html

      but yes its possible if you know your way around linux.

      I dont know what use case really is but make sure its not covered from things like
      https://imagemagick.org/index.php
      but its mostly raster based.
