SVG becomes an ordinary image in Lucid

Hi ​@Michael Nilsson Pauli,

Thank you for your post in the Lucid Community!

Are you seeing this issue across the board with anything you are importing as an SVG, or only with the Font Awesome icons you mentioned?

Would you mind sending me the following? This will help me take a closer look at the issue you’re experiencing.

• A screenshot of one of the old imported SVGs from the same icon-library you mentioned that IS working very well.
• A screenshot of the issue you are experiencing showing one of the Font Awesome icons and the inability to change the fill color.

*Comparing the old imported SVGs to the current SVG icons will help me better understand the issue you are experiencing.

• Could you share a temporary Document Support PIN for this document? This will help me take a closer look at what’s going on. This PIN is safe to post in this thread because it is only accessible by members of the Lucid support staff. You can find steps for generating a Support PIN in this Lucid Help Center article: Generate a Lucid Support PIN.

Thank you for your help and patience!

It seems like older versions of Font Awesome works fine, but never don’t.

If I check “Rasterize SVG imports”, older versions doesn’t work either. 

Screenshots.

Hi ​@Michael Nilsson Pauli,

 

Thank you for your response and for showing the difference of older versions versus new versions of the Font Awesome icons. Thank you ​@Meghan, for jumping in here and providing great knowledge and resources in regard to rasterizing SVG imports.

 

I was able to find a workaround when downloading icons as SVG files in Font Awesome, and wanted to share the steps I took below as a means of changing the fill color directly on the Font Awesome website:

 

 

 

 

 

If this solution doesn’t align with your workflow, would you mind sharing a temporary Support PIN for this document? This will help me take a closer look at what’s going on.

Please let me know if you have additional questions!

This is a good workaround, even though its not optimal. This will add some extra time to my process. 

Do you know if there is another way fixing this in the Font awesome end?

I am not sure of a more efficient method to change the fill color of your icons in Font Awesome, but I was able to find this Font Awesome help center article that includes a variety of resources that might be able to give you more options that are less time consuming!
