Hi Phil,
I didn’t know it wasn’t a good idea to animate SVG files. Thanks so much for the useful information!
Animated SVG’s are not supported widely yet, but that could change in the future.
SVGs work well but I recommend you don’t animate them. This means moving them on a path, scaling them and even altering their alphas for fading in and out. If they are static images that don’t move, the SVG is a great format to use.
Phil, this is limited to bitmap images. I explained this many times in all my Photoshop courses, but started with explaining the difference between bitmap and vector images. Since Captivate also supports SVG’s since several versions, I will use SVG instead of bitmap images whenever possible. Both for file size reasons, and certainly for responsive or rescalable projects.
