Best way to change colour SVG icons in Designer

[All Media Lab]

Hi,

What is the best way to change the colour of a multi layer SGV icon from black to white in Affinity Designer?

Here’s one way:

• Open the SVG file;
• Select one of the black-filled layers (assuming your layers are filled with black, you don't say);
• Use menu “Select → Select Same → Fill Colour”;
• Choose a new colour (e.g. white).

There will probably be other ways.

Thanks! But I asked about a SVG icon in black with a white background changed in white with transparant or whatever background.

But I noticed already, you can't edit a icon in Affinity Designer in a easy way.

Downloaded the free app https://nucleoapp.com/

And now I'm able to customize 2000 selected fonts in 1 second and export them to a folder.

You asked about changing “the colour of a multi layer SGV icon from black to white”; you didn’t say that the background was white or anything about transparency.

True!

But the principal is the same! My question was not about the colours (that could be any color or transparant and wouldn't change a thing! ) but the way to customize icons in a quick way.

And sadly that doesn't work well in Affinity Designer!
