Using an SVG as a background drawable in Android

Question

I\'m trying to use an SVG image (created using Inkscape and saved as plain SVG) as a background for my application. I\'m trying to do this using the svg-android lib

Answer 1

I tried an example using the following code and it is shows the background correctly:

LinearLayout root = (LinearLayout) findViewById(R.id.background);
SVG svg = SVGParser.getSVGFromResource(getResources(),
                R.raw.android_body);
Drawable pictureDrawable = svg.createPictureDrawable();
root.setBackgroundDrawable(pictureDrawable);

Have you tried with another svg?
