SVG Color Changer / Recolour

Recolour all fill/stroke attributes in an SVG to a new palette.

Effortlessly recolour your SVG files online without needing complex design software. Whether you're aligning icons with new brand guidelines, creating design variations for testing, or simply experimenting with a fresh aesthetic, our SVG Colour Changer is the perfect tool. It automatically detects all the colours in your vector graphic and allows you to map each one to a new shade. The process is instant, browser-based, and preserves the infinite scalability of your SVG.

How Our SVG Colour Changer Works

The tool simplifies the recolouring process into a few easy steps. First, upload your SVG file. Our system will immediately parse the file and identify every unique fill and stroke colour used within the graphic, displaying them as a list. For each original colour, you can select a new one using our intuitive colour picker or by entering a precise hex code. Once you've defined your new palette, the tool generates a preview. With a final click, it creates a new SVG file with all the colour attributes updated, ready for you to download and use.

When to Use This Tool

This utility is invaluable for a wide range of tasks. Graphic designers and marketers can quickly update entire sets of icons to match a new brand colour scheme. Web developers can theme SVG assets for different website sections or for dark mode implementations. It's also perfect for personalising stock vectors, such as those you might find in our extensive SVG library, to fit your project's unique style. While this tool excels at colour replacement, for adjustments to dimensions, we recommend our dedicated SVG Resize tool. Both are part of our powerful suite of SVG vector tools designed to streamline your workflow.

Tips for Best Results

Keep It Simple: The tool works best on SVGs with solid colour fills and strokes. Files containing complex gradients, embedded CSS styles, or filters may not produce the expected results.
Prepare Your Palette: Have your target hex colour codes ready beforehand. This will make the process of mapping old colours to new ones much faster and more accurate.
Review the Preview: Always check the preview image carefully before downloading. This ensures that all elements have been recoloured correctly and that no unintended changes have occurred.

Frequently asked questions

Can I change the colour of any SVG file?

Yes, our tool works with most standard SVG files by targeting their fill and stroke colour attributes. However, complex SVGs with embedded styles or scripts may not be fully compatible.

Does this tool change the colour of a specific part of an SVG?

The tool replaces all instances of a specific colour throughout the entire SVG. It does not currently support selecting and changing individual shapes or paths.

Will changing the colour reduce my SVG's quality?

No, changing colours is a non-destructive process for vector graphics. Your SVG will retain its original high quality and scalability.

Can I replace a colour with a transparent one?

Yes, you can set the new colour to be transparent. Simply use the colour picker to set the alpha channel to zero or input a colour code that supports transparency (like RGBA).

What colour formats can I use for the new palette?

You can input new colours using hex codes (e.g., #FF5733) or by using our integrated colour picker, which also supports RGB and HSL values.

Is it possible to revert the colour changes?

The tool provides a new file for download, so your original SVG remains untouched on your device. To revert, simply start over with your original file.

Why didn't some colours in my SVG change?

This can happen if colours are defined within CSS <style> blocks, gradients, or filters inside the SVG. Our tool is most effective on direct fill and stroke attributes.
