Add a plugin (SimpleSVG)

This section is about adding a plugin not available through QGis (1.7) > Plugins > Fetch plugins, and thus to install handily. We take the case of QGis SimpleSVG plugin.

1. Download the plugin > Unzip it.
2. Cut-Paste the folder in

   for Linux : in /home/YOURUSERNAME/.qgis/python/plugins/ (paste me here!)

   for Windows: somewhere in c:/documents and settings, within the QGis' python plugins folder.

3. QGis (1.7) > Plugins > Manage plugins > QGis Plugins Manager (pop up)¹ > search key word (SVG) > check the good plugin + ok
4. >> Open a/some vector layers or a project with them >
5. >> Plugins > Find your plugin: "Save as SVG" > Save as SVG > Choice your ouput place.

¹: this window also provide you the address of your plugin directory !

SimpleSVG currently save the QGis' screen as a SVG with the correct layer division. This save us a lot a energy for later Inkscape work, especially colorations. SimpleSVG is a plugin currently under developement, Richard Duivenvoorde is looking for ideas for improvement.
