Hi Team,

I need to add some icons in Ignition, so I placed a file(materialnew) in the following path:  
`C:\Program Files\Inductive Automation\Ignition\data\modules\com.inductiveautomation.perspective\icons`

 ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/0/c/0cc577d0ca3a0cac5ec81c0b98277e06252be6d6.png)

Please see the attached image for reference. After pasting the file and restarting the gateway, the icons are still not displaying in Ignition.

Thanks in advance.

Ignition can be a bit picky about the formatting of the svg file. I would make sure you're using the same viewbox/group/id system that the default svgs use
