# SVG

#### Uploading SVG Files in Materials

Simplio3D supports the use of **SVG files** for materials, allowing you to apply **vector graphics** as textures or decals on your 3D models. SVGs are ideal for **logos, patterns, or illustrations** that need to scale without losing quality.

{% hint style="info" %}
**In Simplio3D SVGs are commonly used in configurators with Patterns and Canvas option sets, but they can also serve as textures for plain materials.**
{% endhint %}

**How to upload an SVG:**

1. Go to the **Materials** section.
2. Click the **SVG** subsection.
3. Click **Upload** and choose your file.

**Best Practices:**

* Use **clean, optimized SVGs** to avoid performance issues.
* Avoid extremely complex SVGs with too many nodes.
* Combine SVGs with other material properties (color, normal maps) for enhanced visual effects.

By using SVG files, you can ensure your materials remain **sharp and scalable** across all device resolutions.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.simplio3d.com/learning-the-app/materials/svg.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
