Which file formats does IconVectors support?
IconVectors opens and saves SVG files natively. You can also export to
minified SVG, XAML, ReactTS, VueTS, C++, and various bitmap formats
(PNG, ICO, JPG, BMP, TGA, TIFF, GIF, XPM, PCX, PNM).
Can I open SVG files from other tools like Illustrator or Figma?
Yes. IconVectors is fully compatible with SVG files created in apps such as
Adobe Illustrator, Figma, and Inkscape. Imported transforms are applied
to geometry for consistent results across frameworks.
How is IconVectors different from Inkscape or Illustrator?
Unlike general illustration tools, IconVectors is optimized for
pixel-perfect icon design. It includes a built-in
Live Code Viewer for SVG/React/Vue/XAML, fast batch export for multiple sizes,
and one-click generation of theme/state variants.
What is the Live Code Viewer and how does it help developers?
The Live Code Viewer updates in real time as you edit your icon,
showing clean code in multiple formats (SVG, ReactTS, VueTS, XAML, C++).
You can copy snippets instantly for integration into IDEs like VS Code or Visual Studio.
Can I convert text into editable vector paths?
Yes. The Text Tool converts typed text into vector paths (one glyph per character) using installed fonts, so you can edit it like any other shape.
How do color palettes and swatches work?
The Color Palettes panel lets you manage swatches, sort them, and add all colors used in your icon. Left-click applies a fill color and right-click applies a stroke color.
Can I drag the preview into other apps?
Yes. You can drag the icon from the Preview Panel to another app; IconVectors exports a temporary SVG during the drag.
Does IconVectors support multiple windows and document recovery?
Yes. You can open multiple editor windows (Shift+Ctrl+N) to work on icons side-by-side
and copy elements between them. An automatic recovery system saves
your work in the background and restores it after crashes.
Is IconVectors available in multiple languages?
Yes. The interface is available in 34 languages, including right-to-left support where needed.
Can I undo/redo changes without limits?
Absolutely. IconVectors has a full Undo/Redo system.
All actions — drawing, transforming, coloring, or editing paths — can be undone or redone,
with no fixed limit in history.
What licensing and trial options are available?
A 30-day free trial is included. Licenses are
perpetual (use forever) with 1 year of free updates.
After that, you can renew updates at your convenience. One license covers multiple
devices if you’re the primary user.
Does IconVectors include tools for dark/disabled or state variants?
Yes. You can generate dark theme, hot (hover), and disabled versions
automatically using the Icon menu. Overlays and shadows can also be
added for status badges or indicators.
