How do I use android svg files as icon located in drawable folder in bottombar item component?

[tareq89]

First, thank you very much for this plugin. I have some android svg files in in res/drawable folder. I tried to use those icon files in bottom bar component as icon, ex: "icon_name", "res://icon_name", but none of this is working. Can anyone give me any idea how to achieve this?

@tareq89 unfortunately svg files are not supported. Due to NativeScript itself and its image-source module which don't allow svg format.
Supporting svg would mean to add the plugin nativescript-svg as a dependency; this is not planned.
