Nested <svg> elements - question and feature request

[idw-git]

Angus, as far as I can see your SVG parser doesn't seem to be capable of parsing nested elements, instead it simply appears to abort further processing. Is this correct and are their any plans to add this feature? I can provide a pretty simple test sample if required.

Virtually all elements in SVG files are nested, so of course it parses nested elements.

Sorry, my fault, I should have been more specific (I think I didn't realize that the final version of my initial post clipped the second svg element name due to using unencoded angle brackets): I'm referring to <svg> elements being nested within <svg> elements, zipped sample attached. Nested.zip

For comparison here's also a screenshot of the Firefox rendering (left) versus the one using your sample Svg101.exe.

Actually Image32 does parse the nested SVG element, but it's currently ignoring its x and y attributes, so the nested SVG image in your example above is being drawn on top of the elements drawn in the outer SVG element.
