Express means crippled

The express moniker means you could spend time working on a project but you can’t export or use it. I tried vectorizing a bitmap and found the app wouldn’t let me do anything with it. Upon attempting to save my work, it gave a long list of what I cannot do with this program so I promptly deleted the app and posted this review. Telling me about reduced functionality would have been better at any other point in the workflow, instead of at the end when I tried saving.

Incredible but difficult

This works in native svg, and yes, for some people that does matter.
I was able to open an svg, change it and save it again. The results had a similar structure to the original svg. This was great. Extra editor details were added and the coordinates changed a bit even though I didn’t touch some of these structures..

Other applications that are not native svg add extra groupings and move a lot of the g (a div for svg) around. For those editors I could export once and not edit again. With iVinci, I could use it iteratively, manually tweak the svg, and then open in ivince again. Granted, my images were on the simpler side and it may not work for extremely large graphics, but I mostly use ivinci for the individual files and “linked” in the images.

The tutorials are nice, and just show how much power is in the app, but it is very difficult to get a grasp of the features. I guess I have the same problem with photoshop and pixelmator, so it may just be the nature of the beast.

I have a post clean up process written in ruby to remove the extra comments, and use svgo (a nodejs) script to clean up other features. All in all I’m very happy with the program, just wish it were a little easier to work with.

I too am a professional designer...

And I really want my turn in the ring with this. New computer, waiting on my adobe suite among other things. I just wanted to resize a vector and I thought I’d see what’s in the app store instead of installing a previous version of photoshop for 1 image. The fist thing this thing manages to do is load the graphic incorrectly. I’ve got letters missing and graphic componants where they shouldn’t be. So ya, I’d recommend this. It would be an excellent way to tell someone I didn’t like them.
