Axialis IconVectors Documentation
Version 2.00
Axialis IconVectors is a lightweight SVG icon editor created specifically for developers, UI designers, and software engineers. While traditional vector tools like Inkscape or Adobe Illustrator are designed for complex illustrations, IconVectors focuses on producing pixel-perfect icons efficiently — ideal for modern apps, interfaces, and development workflows.
Version 2.00 adds the Icon Explorer workspace for browsing SVG icon folders, switching between Explorer and Editor, navigating direct child folders, copying, pasting, and duplicating SVG files, and running the first safe batch starter operations. The MCP runtime exposes the same new Explorer and batch operations for local automation. See Changelog
