Working with media elements

Wix Harmony Editor: Working With Vector Art, Shapes, and Icons


Add beautiful vector art, shapes, and icons to express your style. These graphics are digital illustrations (SVGs) that stay sharp at any size, so your design always looks stunning. Choose from the hundreds of free options available at Wix, or upload your own.


Notes:


  • In the Graphics section of the Add panel, you can find vector art, shapes, icons, and stickers. Stickers are image files you can add to your site, while the rest are SVGs, so you can edit them differently .

  • Some icons are sourced from third-party open-sourced libraries such as Tabler Icons (MIT) and Phosphor Icons (MIT)

Note:


  • The available customization options depend on whether the vector art features a single color, multiple colors, or a grayscale palette.

  • When uploading your SVG file, we analyze its colors and classify it either as a shape element or a vector art element. For instance, SVG files that only show a single color will appear as a 'shape' in the editor. If we are not able to identify the colors in your SVG file, you may not be able to customize its colors in the editor.



Adjusting the settings of basic shapes and vector art


Adjust how these elements appear and function on your site. You can update their size and layout, add a link to turn the element into a button or call-to-action, and set accessibility options to make sure everyone can enjoy your site’s content.


To adjust the settings:


  1. Go to your editor.

  2. Select the relevant element.

  3. Click the Settings icon

    Wix Harmony Editor: Working With Vector Art, Shapes, and Icons

    on the action bar.
