Copy an inline SVG image's source code

To copy the SVG source code of an SVG image that's embedded directly in the HTML of a webpage, use the Elements tool in DevTools (Inspector in Firefox).

1. To open DevTools, right-click the SVG image in the webpage, and then click Inspect.

   The Elements (or Inspector) tool opens, with the SVG element selected in the DOM tree of the page.

2. Make sure the <svg> element is selected. Depending on where you right-clicked on the webpage, an element that's inside the <svg> element might be selected instead. If so, click the <svg> element to select it.

3. To copy the SVG source code:

   • In Firefox, Chrome, Edge, or Safari: Right-click the <svg> element in the Elements (or Inspector) tool, and then click Copy > Copy outerHTML (or Outer HTML in Firefox).
   • In Polypane: Click the Copy icon and then click Copy Outer HTML.

   The SVG source code is now copied to your clipboard.

4. Paste the SVG source code wherever you want to use it.

The following screenshot shows the Copy menu in Microsoft Edge:

And the following screenshot shows the Copy icon in Polypane:

Alternatively, in Polypane, you can right-click the SVG and then select Copy SVG as... > Copy as code.
