I am trying to edit svg color, but I do not see any options enabling that.

Layers panel show svg as "linked document", but I don't how to access it. Double clicking doesn't do anything.

If it's linked, the file is somewhere on your computer. Just open the Resources Manager panel, select the linked file, and look at the path displayed to find its location.

You'll be able to find, open and modify directly the SVG.

Or use the "Show in File Explorer" or (I presume, for Mac) the "Show in Finder" button.

@Zuzu Open the SVG file (File > Open) rather than Placing it in your document, then you'll be able to edit the colour. You can then copy and paste it into the file you are working on and you'll still be able to edit the colour.

Alternatively, change the Image Pacement Policy for your document from Prefer Linked to Prefer Embedded.

That way, Placing the SVG in your document will allow you to double click it so the colour can then be edited.
