I want to use a svg file as an icon for a button, but I have an error that says: "The component cannot be found.

What should I use as a source?

I used this code:

<Button Grid.Row="2" Click="Click">
      <StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal">
        <Image Source="/my project;component/my folder/my icon.svg" />
        <TextBlock> add</TextBlock>
      </StackPanel>
    </Button>

In case it is not clear, WPF does not provide image decoding from an SVG file. You would usually convert the SVG to XAML with an appropriate tool. – Clemens May 04 '23 at 16:02

Quick search for '[svg to xaml](https://stackoverflow.com/search?q=svg+to+xaml)' should get you fixed up. – Chris W. May 05 '23 at 16:47
