No editable colors found – this SVG may use CSS classes. Run it through the optimizer first to normalize styling, then reload it here.
Every fill and stroke color is detected automatically – click a swatch to change it. For full visual editing (strokes, backgrounds, presets), the Studio goes deeper.
HEX ↔ Tailwind toggle
Working in a Tailwind project? Flip the color readout from #0070f3 to text-blue-600 style tokens and back – copy whichever your codebase speaks.
Stroke and fill separately
Outline icons keep their stroke editable; filled logos recolor by fill. Mixed SVGs let you target each.
Brand-accurate preview
Preview your recolored icon on light and dark backgrounds and at favicon / app-icon / navbar sizes before exporting.
STEP BY STEP
How to change SVG colors online
- Load the SVG Drop your file into the editor above, or paste the SVG code – every fill and stroke color is detected automatically.
- Pick new colors Each detected color appears as a swatch. Click one, choose a new color, and every shape using it recolors live.
- Export Download the recolored SVG or copy the updated code straight into your project. For Tailwind tokens and stroke editing, continue in the Studio.
Why SVG color editing beats raster recoloring
In a PNG, color lives in every pixel – recoloring means repainting, with fuzzy edges and halo artifacts. In an SVG, color is one attribute: change fill="#000" to fill="#0070f3" and the entire shape recolors perfectly. That’s the magic the editor exposes visually.
It also means one icon file can serve your whole design system: the same SVG recolored per theme, or styled by CSS (currentColor) to inherit text color automatically. The Studio’s code tab shows exactly how each technique looks in markup – see also our guide on changing SVG colors in code.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
How do I change the color of an SVG file?
Open it in the Studio’s color editor, set new stroke/fill values, export. In code, it’s the fill and stroke attributes – the visual editor just does it without hunting through markup.
Why doesn’t CSS color change work on my <img> SVG?
SVGs loaded via <img> are isolated documents – CSS can’t reach inside. Either inline the SVG in your HTML or recolor the file itself here.
Can I recolor multi-color SVGs?
Yes – each path keeps its own fill. Icon-style SVGs with a single color are the simplest; complex illustrations may need per-shape editing in the code tab.
What is currentColor in SVG?
A special value that makes the SVG inherit the surrounding CSS text color – ideal for icons in buttons and menus. Set fill="currentColor" in the code tab to enable it.
