Sketsa SVG Editor is a cross platform vector drawing application based on SVG. Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) is a graphics format and technology based on XML developed by World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). With Sketsa, you can create vector graphics that can be scaled and printed at any resolution, without losing detail or clarity.
Sketsa SVG Graphics Editor - последняя версия межплатформенной программы от Kiyut для работы с векторной графикой, основанной на SVG, полностью создана на Java.
С Sketsa SVG Graphics Editor вы можете создать векторную графику, которую можно масштабировать и напечатать в любом разрешении, без потери деталей и четкости.solution, without losing detail or clarity.[

Sketsa SVG Editor Features
SVG Native File Format and produces very clean XML code
Sketsa uses SVG as its native file format. SVG is an open standard language for describing two-dimensional (2D) graphics in XML developed by W3C. As being a XML grammar lets SVG benefit from the various XML tools that make it so easy to manipulate, generate, search and edit SVG files. Sketsa also produces very clean SVG XML code. It is not using any proprietary namespaces.
Tool Palette, Canvas, and Visual Design Tool
Sketsa SVG Editor features various tools for optimizing content creation, giving designers unsurpassed support for creativity. Its visual design tools allows designer to select, draw, and edit objects easily. It support SVG specific shape tools , , , , , and support additional illustration tools such as Pencil tool for freeform shape and Pen tool for curve shape. It also support transform type: rotate, skew, scale, and translate. Designer could easily and visually create or edit SVG artwork.
Object Property
Designer can quickly inspect and change object properties in one centralized location. The Object Properties contain several categories: Geometry, Stroke, Fill, and Filter. In each of the category you can change the value and automatically shown in the canvas. Depending on the object selected, it allow designer to change the geometry, stroke, fill, or filter effect properties such as geometry attributes, color, stroke width, opacity, fill rule, etc
Defs Editor
The defs editor is a centralized location of resources for the current or selected SVG document. It allows you to create Linear Gradient, Radial Gradient, and Filter. This is the place where object reuse is achieved. For example: Gradient or Filter element which could be applied to other SVG elements.
Source Editor with syntax highlighting
Although Sketsa SVG Editor allows designer to visually create and edit SVG artwork without worrying about underlying source code, Sketsa provide access to the underlying SVG source code. The integrated XML text editor allows them to view and edit SVG source code for greater control. It has built in SVG validation to ensure source code changes is a valid SVG Document.
Export to Raster or Bitmap
Sketsa SVG Editor allows you to export SVG artwork into raster image. It supports JPEG and PNG format.
Plugins Support
Plugins supports allow Sketsa SVG Editor capabilities to be enhanced or extended by various plugins. For example Symbol Library Plugin or PDF Export Plugin.
Cross Platform
Sketsa SVG Editor is a cross platform vector drawing application that run on all popular operating systems eg: Microsoft Windows, Unix or Linux, etc. It runs on any platform which supports Java 1.5 or higher.

Sketsa SVG Graphics Editor необычна не только потому, что была написан на Java, что позволяет этому приложению работать на Windows, Mac и Linux системах, но и потому, что очень тесно работает с SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) - графический формат и технологии, основанные на XML, разработанную консорциумом World Wide Web (W3C).
Кроме некоторых обычных инструментальных средств для работы с векторами, программа также обеспечена специфическими SVG инструментами и доступом к исходному коду SVG, через встроенный текстовый редактор XML. Sketsa использует SVG как родной формат, но окончательные работы могут быть экспортированы в JPEG и PNG форматы, а также через плагин в PDF. Самое существенное усовершенствование в версии — это поддержка плагинов.

Особенности:
* Соответствие стандартам и расширяемость
* SVG родной формата файлов
* Производит чистый SVG без собственных имен
* Поддержка полного профиля SVG
* Экспорт и растеризации в JPEG, PNG и (через плагины) PDF
* Поддержка плагинов

System Requirements
* Java 6 Update 13 or higher (java.com/getjava)
* 1024 x 768, 16-bit (thousands of colors) color display or higher
* Mouse or equivalent pointing device
