How to use the SVG path visualizer
Paste any SVG d attribute value into the input and the tool renders it instantly. You can see exactly what each command draws — M (moveto), L (lineto), C (cubic bezier), A (arc), Z (close path) — without opening Illustrator, Figma, or a code editor. Useful for debugging paths that aren't rendering correctly or for understanding what a minified path from an icon library actually looks like.
SVG path commands — what each letter does
| Command | What it does | Uppercase vs lowercase |
|---|---|---|
| M / m | Move to a point without drawing | M = absolute, m = relative to current |
| L / l | Draw a straight line | L = absolute coords, l = relative |
| H / h | Horizontal line | Takes only one coordinate |
| V / v | Vertical line | Takes only one coordinate |
| C / c | Cubic bezier curve | Two control points + endpoint |
| A / a | Elliptical arc | rx ry rotation large-arc-flag sweep-flag x y |
| Z / z | Close path back to start | No coordinates needed |
Complete Developer Toolkit
SVG path visualization is most useful when building or debugging icons, illustrations, and UI shapes used in web projects. After perfecting your path, convert it to a raster image with our SVG to PNG converter — essential for platforms that don't support inline SVG. Our CSS glassmorphism generator creates modern frosted-glass effects you can combine with your SVG icons for polished UI components. When your SVG is used inline in CSS as a url() data URI, our URL encoder percent-encodes the SVG string so it's safe inside a CSS property value.
Our Base64 encoder converts your SVG to a base64 data URI for embedding directly in HTML src attributes or CSS backgrounds without external file requests. For minifying the CSS that contains your SVG references, our CSS minifier strips whitespace and optimizes the output. The diff checker is useful for comparing two SVG path strings to see exactly which coordinates changed. Our regex tester helps you write patterns to extract or transform path commands programmatically. For working with SVG data in JSON config files, our JSON formatter ensures your data structures are clean and valid.
