    Hello,

    The use element used by the Clone tool allows to load a reference located in an external svg:

    https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/SVG/Reference/Element/use#loading_resources_from_external_files_via_use

    Is it possible to do this via Inkscape?

    Note that I don't want to load the whole svg (I know I can do this by linking the file), but a specific object located in the external svg.

    Thank you.

    Inkscape symbol libraries?

    Thank you for your reply, COD.

    Does the symbols can be shared from the project folder?

    Typically I would like to allow users clone a git repository containing the symbols and my main file, and they should be able to open them without additional step (ie. without copying symbol files into ~/.config/inkscape/symbols/).

    Sorry - I misunderstood your post.
    Hopefully someone in the know will respond.
