.. _wx.SVGBitmapFileHandler:

==========================================================================================================================================
|phoenix_title|  **wx.SVGBitmapFileHandler**
==========================================================================================================================================

Handler saving bitmaps to external ``PNG`` files and linking to it from the ``SVG``.          

This handler is used by default by :ref:`wx.SVGFileDC`. ``PNG`` files are created in the same folder as the ``SVG`` file and are named using the ``SVG`` filename appended with  ``_image#.png`` . 

When using :meth:`wx.SVGFileDC.SetBitmapHandler`   to set this handler with the default constructor, the ``PNG`` files are created in the runtime location of the application. The save location can be customized by using the :ref:`wx.SVGBitmapFileHandler`  constructor. 





         



.. versionadded:: 4.1/wxWidgets-3.1.0

.. class:: wx.SVGBitmapFileHandler(SVGBitmapHandler)

   **Possible constructors**::

       SVGBitmapFileHandler(path)
       
   
   Handler saving bitmaps to external ``PNG`` files and linking to it from
   the ``SVG``.



   .. method:: __init__(self, path)

      Create a :ref:`wx.SVGBitmapFileHandler`  and specify the location where the file will be saved.                  




      :param `path`: The path of the save location. If  `path`  contains a filename, the autogenerated filename will be appended to this name.  
      :type `path`: string




                  



      .. versionadded:: 4.1/wxWidgets-3.1.3  
     








   .. method:: ProcessBitmap(self, bitmap, x, y, stream)

      Writes the bitmap representation as ``SVG`` to the given stream.                  

      The ``XML`` generated by this function will be inserted into the ``SVG`` file inline with the ``XML`` generated by the main :ref:`wx.SVGFileDC`  class so it is important that the ``XML`` is properly formed. 




      :param `bitmap`: A valid bitmap to add to ``SVG``.   
      :type `bitmap`: wx.Bitmap
      :param `x`: Horizontal position of the bitmap.   
      :type `x`: int
      :param `y`: Vertical position of the bitmap.   
      :type `y`: int
      :param `stream`: The stream to write ``SVG`` contents to.   
      :type `stream`: wx.OutputStream












      :rtype: `bool`
