The <object> code within the HTML file will look like this: <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> </head> <body> <object type="image/svg+xml" data="test1.svg"/> </body> </html> SVG A simple SVG [ test1.svg ] is shown below: <?xml version="1.0" standalone="no"?> <?xml-stylesheet type="text/css" href="style.css"?> <svg width="400" height="300" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" version="1.1"> <rect height="100" width="100" id="nrb1" /&g

How to Recover Android 7 Icons

I lost my dailer. Hmm? But its still installed and active in the Settings > Apps menu. So where is it? Android 7 is too smart for its own good. Try searching the alternative vertical swipe home menu. How do I access this vertical menu? Have a look the image below. The button surrounded by a red square changes from horizontal swipe home screen to vertical swipe. While in vertical mode, the blue bar on the top right allows you to rapidly scroll up and down the list of apps. To return to horizontal mode, use the Back button circled in red. If you scroll in vertical mode and find your icon, move it back to original position by pressing for a second or two, drag it into the desired position then release it. Cheers. Happy mobing.
