# Qt SVG

Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) is an XML-based language for describing two-dimensional vector graphics. Qt provides classes for rendering and displaying SVG drawings in widgets and on other paint devices.

## Using the Module

Using a Qt module's C++ API requires linking against the module library, either directly or through other dependencies. Several build tools have dedicated support for this, including CMake and qmake.

### Building with CMake

Use the `find_package()` command to locate the needed module component in the `Qt6` package:

     find_package(Qt6 REQUIRED COMPONENTS Svg)
     target_link_libraries(mytarget PRIVATE Qt6::Svg)

For more details, see the Build with CMake overview.

### Building with qmake

To configure the module for building with qmake, add the module as a value of the `QT` variable in the project's .pro file:

     QT += svg
