How to use SVG image in ImageView
In new Android Studio there is possibility to import SVG to XML file, so You don't need to use external library.
In drawable right click -> New -> Vector Asset -> Local SVG file.
Then You use it normally as other drawables:
android:src="@drawable/btn_image"
On newer devices that have hardware rendering turned on by default, you need to explicitly turn on software rendering.
imgView.setLayerType(View.LAYER_TYPE_SOFTWARE, null);OR add this tag in your xml
android:layerType="software"
To properly use the svgimageview:svg attribute, the app needs to know it's definition. Unfortunately, there is only a JAR version of the library at the moment, and (unlike with AARs) the needed definition does not get merged properly when the app is built.
Try copying the attrs.xml file from the library source
https://github.com/BigBadaboom/androidsvg/blob/master/androidsvg/src/main/res/values/attrs.xml
into your res/values folder.
I believe that should fix your problem.
