[Qgis-user] Imported Line Symbol Problem

Hi Dave, 

You would create a folder anywhere in your file system (preferably not
on a slow partition), copy the necessary SVG files in there and then
create a configuration in "Settings" --> "Options" --> "SVG paths" -->
"add a new entry (green plus)" with a path to the folder you created in
the previous step. 

With news configurations, SVG symbols can also be embedded into the
project or qml style file or it could point to a central URL somewhere
on the web. 

Hope this helps, 

Andreas
