A pretty nice feature of .svg images in the universal GUI is that they automatically adjust their color for readability.

I was wondering why the color adjustment does not seem to happen when I use the image as a domain element icon (maybe its just grids in general).

Is there any way to achieve the svg color readability adjustment in a grid like this?

Hi Anne,

Try opening the SVG file inside an editor like Notepad. The SVG most likely is containing a style="" element which also names a color. Remove the entire style="" from the file and then save the file. This will make sure the SVG can be recolored by the GUI.

Remove this line - If your icon has overlay(s) also remove it further down.

Hi mark,

That does not seem to be the problem because the icon does work (inverts color) when attached to a task. And it has no style attribute in its code. 

The problem is that when this(or any svg) icon is attached to a domain element as an icon it does not invert color's.

Hi Anne,

I contacted the Universal GUI team, they know about it and it's on their backlog to be implemented. For know the color will not change for domain element icons.
