    <p>I'm looking to use an SVG logo for a website — to make it look great on a responsive design for all devices. </p> <p>But since <a href="http://caniuse.com/#search=svg" rel="noreferrer">there are issues</a>, I want to support as many devices and browsers as possible. Load speed is also an important consideration. How do export settings in Adobe Illustrator fit into all this?</p> <p>In Illustrator, there are several options for SVG export. Firstly, <strong>which SVG profile is best?</strong></p> <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/6DguE.png" alt="enter image description here"></p> <p>I assume SVG Tiny has a lower file size? Do many devices support SVG Tiny? What are the most important differences? (Without having to read <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/SVGMobile/" rel="noreferrer">this W3 monster</a>.)</p> <p>Secondly, I assume that the best option for image location is "link"? (See description after exclamation mark.)</p> <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/rAHmN.png" alt="enter image description here"></p> <p>Alternatively, how is browser support for the "embed" option?</p> <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/3znoL.png" alt="enter image description here"></p> <p>Thank you!</p> <blockquote> <p>P.S. There will be a fallback alpha-PNG option, but I want the SVG to be supported as best as possible. (Come to think of it, a fallback option — like a JPG — would probably be the best served in this case since alpha-PNG itself needs a solution for older IE.)</p> </blockquote> <p><strong>Update:</strong> There are also more options that can be configured. I am not working with text, so the only relevant one I see is the decimal places. For logos, something to be displayed as maximum 200x200px (so 400x400px on Retina displays), is "3" the best setting? Or "2" to minimize file size?</p> <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/yvylr.png" alt="enter image description here"></p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
