Choose the delivery format
| Format | Best fit | Validate |
|---|---|---|
| SVG | Scalable vector workflows and editable downstream styling | Sanitization, font handling, filters, and animation support |
| PNG | Predictable fixed-size image libraries | Pixel dimensions, transparency, panel density, and scaling |
| Spritesheet | Indexed multi-state image objects | Frame order, cell size, state encoding, and labels |
| ZIP | Moving grouped exports between project teams | Folder structure, naming, license, and source control |
A vendor-neutral import check
- 01
Export one representative asset
Use a motor or valve with several visibly different states.
- 02
Import at target density
Check the smallest panel and the normal operator viewing distance.
- 03
Bind every state
Exercise stable, transitional, abnormal, and bad-quality conditions.
- 04
Package the pattern
Create the project's reusable object only after the pilot behaves correctly.
Frequently asked questions
- Which format should I start with?
- Use SVG when your engineering tool safely supports vector assets and PNG when a fixed raster workflow is more predictable. Use spritesheets when the target object switches among indexed frames.
- Are these vendor-native libraries?
- No. KonnectSymbols currently exports vendor-neutral files. Validate imports in your exact engineering software and runtime version.
