| Feb 6, 2020 at 10:05 | comment | added | David Gausmann | In my case I wanted to override element styles from the SVG. My CSS didn't work, because the element styles had a higher priority. The most simple solution was it to add an !important to the CSS style for the SVG. Then everything was fine. If you want to avoid !important, you need to move the element styles into the CSS. | |

| Feb 6, 2015 at 10:37 | comment | added | msg45f | Does this mean that there is no method to benefit from caching the SVG and applying varied styling? Inline doesn't seem to cache well, while other methods would require creating many version of the image, eliminating any benefit from caching them. | |
