Hi, I am a newbie to Batik. I came to it with an task in mind and thought it would solve my problems. But it turns out it might be more complicated to do than I expect.
I want to read in a .svg that extensively uses <symbol> and <use> tags. This information is fairly accessible from the DOM but I loose all the geometry that exists. Using GVT on the other hand gives me all the geometry but without the original tag information. So it goes one step too far for what I am in need off. My pitch is to ask whether anyone has worked on this before, or suggested that it be implemented but wasn't. In the archives I have not come across any as of yet (still looking through them). If there is no way to grab this info I may be willing to code it and submit my stuff. Any guidance or help is appreciated. Also forgive me for being too explicit or not explicit enough. Thanks, Zainab
