It would be so nice to design GUIs in inkscape & have SM import it in a few quick steps 😉 Maybe you can ask them to borrow some code...
I think SVG will gain more popularity soon since Opera now supports TinySVG & Firefox dev versions have built-in SVG support. I help keep up links for SVG info at the inkscape WiKi:

cheers

If it can export image files then you can use them in SM already, usually it is to do with the way you make the GUI and put it together, SM can have transparency also so you can layer things on a panel.

Thanks for the tip Tom!
Long-range though, I'd still like to see naitive SVG for GUIs. I think SVG is more apt for scaling the GUI; you can't do this with bitmapped. I run into problems all the time with VST(i) running at my screen at 1600x1200 (even w/a 21" monitor). I'd like to let the GUIs scale, perhaps be more animated, etc...
Perhaps I could do scaling w/the SM GUI system, but SVG is more cleaner, clearer, & you can use vector editors.
On the other hand, I'm sure this would be a version 2.x thing...

Yeah GUI resizing in JUCE VSTs is rather loverlee

sounds cool NAS; do you have any JUCE VST(i) examples?

Im sure you will get a more advanced resizing module in SM sometime. Because of the low level structures you might be able to make a module that does it somehow at the moment im guessing.

Wow, didn't know inkscape before, looks great!
