#### 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.

**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.
