SVG_SAVE_AS_TEXT

SVG_SAVE_AS_TEXT ( svgObject {; document} )

Parameter Type   Description
svgObject SVG_Ref SVG object reference
document String Document name or Full pathname of document

Description

The SVG_SAVE_AS_TEXT command writes the content of the SVG object specified by svgObject into the disk file specified by document. If svgObject is not an SVG document, an error is generated.

In document, you can pass the full pathname of the file, or only the file name – in which case the file will be created next to the database structure file. If you pass an empty string (“”) in document or omit this parameter, the standard Save file dialog box appears so that the user can specify the name, location and format of the file to be created.

The SVG_SAVE_AS_TEXT modifies the value of the variable (if any) designated by the SVG_SET_DOCUMENT_VARIABLE command.

Example

 svgRef:=SVG_New(500;200;"Sales statistics")
 ...
 SVG_SAVE_AS_TEXT(svgRef;"test.svg") //The document is saved next to the structure
 SVG_CLEAR(svgRef)
