Avoid Android Lint's [VectorPath] warning

Open jzbrooks opened this issue 5 years ago • 2 comments

Error: Very long vector path (n characters), which is bad for performance. Considering reducing precision, removing minor details or rasterizing vector. [VectorPath]

There's a certain length path, n, that we should treat as a maximum. By default vgo should:

Split long paths when converting an SVG into a VD
Avoid merging paths that will exceed n characters.

Opting out of this behavior may be a good candidate for a rule in the configuration language (#21). It has the potential to make the overall file more compact at the cost of a few milliseconds of rendering work.

This seems reasonable given the arbitrary length choice and that it was made a while ago. https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/37136968#comment6
