<noob>Trying to combine SVG lib and Card Shell

[kcorey]

Hi All.

:sign0104:

I'm trying to combine the card shell and the SVG library. Should be easy, right?

I'm doing something silly here and getting 19 black squares. Can anyone point out where I'm going wrong?

In the designer I've got 19 ImageViews called "C0", "C1", ...

Because the ImageViews are in the designer, I don't need to Initialize or Activity.AddView, right?

By the end of initcards I /should/, I think, have 19 cards showing on the screen, but somehow the SVG isn't drawing onto my canvas, or my canvas isn't showing the "correct" bitmap.

My code is below.

P.S. this started out feeling like a short post, but after adding code and the source code of one of the SVG it now feels too long. Is it usually better practice to just .zip up the whole project and put a link to that here?

'Activity module
Sub Process_Globals
   'These global variables will be declared once when the application starts.
   'These variables can be accessed from all modules.

End Sub

Sub Globals
   'These global variables will be redeclared each time the activity is created.
   'These variables can only be accessed from this module.

   Dim C0, C1, C2, C3, C4, C5, C6, C7, C8, C9, C10, C11, C12, C13, C14, C15, C16, C17, C18 As ImageView
   Dim CardViews() As ImageView
   Dim cardpics(19) As Bitmap
   Dim canvases(19) As Canvas

   Dim svgfiles() As String
   svgfiles = Array As String("MB-100.svg", "MB-200.svg", "MB-25.svg", "MB-50.svg", "MB-75.svg", "MB-ace.svg", "MB-crash.svg", "MB-emergency.svg", "MB-empty.svg", "MB-flat.svg", "MB-gas.svg", "MB-limit.svg", "MB-repair.svg", "MB-roll.svg", "MB-sealant.svg", "MB-spare.svg", "MB-stop.svg", "MB-tanker.svg", "MB-unlimited.svg")

   Dim rect1 As Rect
   rect1.Initialize(0, 0, 40, 70)

   For i=0 To 18
      ' Make a Bitmap in which to draw
      cardpics(i).InitializeMutable(40,70)

      ' Create a new SVG object (necessary each time?)
      Dim SVG As SVG
      SVG.Initialize(File.DirAssets, svgfiles(i))

      ' Set up the canvas to draw into the bitmap
      canvases(i).Initialize2(cardpics(i))
      canvases(i).DrawRect(rect1,Colors.Green,True,0.0)
      
      SVG.DrawPicture(canvases(i), rect1)
      CardViews(i).Tag = i
      CardViews(i).Bitmap = cardpics(i)
      CardViews(i).Height = cardpics(i).Height
      CardViews(i).Width = cardpics(i).Width
   Next

Hi All.

Turns out that the SVG library doesn't support the .svg files I was trying to use. They just get colored black for some reason.

Nevermind...
