I replaced the path of the old 3d\_rotation icon and saved a new library called test.svg

It works with other icons in the file in the designer. Like accessibility icon so I know it works to some degree. Must not like my replaced path. I’ve messed around with it for a while and can’t get it to render.

Any help would be appreciated.

It’s something with the size of the icon. Your icon is like 600x600 and setting the viewbox to 24x24 doesn’t actually scale it down to 24x24. I played around with this before and I think it displays the top 24x24 pixel, which is your case is nothing.

Try this, put a transform statement in… (it seems to work for me)
