The procedure for defining a stylesheet that generates an XML document that containts Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) is the same as for any other stylesheet. Simply create a stylesheet that specifically creates SVG elements. You can then use Stylus Studio to display the rendered SVG.

SVG is a W3C recommendation for an XML vocabulary that describes two-dimensional graphics. It is assumed that you are familiar with SVG. For additional information about SVG, see

If you have an installed SVG viewer, Stylus Studio automatically displays the rendered SVG when you apply the stylesheet.
If you do not have an installed SVG viewer, you can still define a styelesheet that generates SVG. However, when you try to preview the result of the stylesheet, Stylus Studio displays the generated XML. You can download an SVG viewer from Adobe Systems Incorporated at http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/main.html . Under Readers, select the SVG Viewer for Windows. After you install an SVG viewer, you must restart Stylus Studio and Internet Explorer to be able to view the rendered graphics.
examples\SVG\chart.xsl file in your Stylus Studio installation directory.
Alternative: If the Stylus Studio
examples project is open, you can access this file from the
Project window. To open the
examples project, open
examples.prj in the Stylus Studio
examples directory.
The
SalesFigures scenario has already been defined. In this scenario, the stylesheet operates on elements in the
chart.xml source document. This file is also in the
examples project, and in the
examples\SVG directory.
If you do not have an SVG viewer installed, Stylus Studio displays the resulting XML.
