Default creating an svg for 8300 causes trouble

Hi guys!

I'm skinning for a while now for my 8900. Thanks to this Forum I managed to get through most difficulties... But now a friend asked me to port a Skin of mine for his 8310. He has the last official OS but we cant get my *svg to work.

What I want to create in the SVG:

Just a simple Precision clone. I need 6 Background PNGs, 6 Custom Buttons and 6 Focus animation.
Everything is linked right (just like I did for my working 8900 skin) but the Background PNGs and the Focus Animations are not shown on Device and Simulator.

Is there any restriction for svg on the 8310 OS?
THX for reading!

yes there are, I forget exactly how it works and don't know why it happens, but for OS 4.5/4.3 which is on curves and pearls, you are restricted as to how many items you can have in your svg. And I think you are way over the limit. I believe it is something like 6 icons with 1 image or something like that. Not sure exactly what you are making, but one thing that helps as a work around for "SOME" things is to make the svg as an "8350" svg, not a 8300 or 8310. Once again, don't know why, but that helps with some things. Give that a shot. next I would try cutting one icon out.
