====Active Asset====

The **Active Asset**  or //owning asset// in an embedded SVG is the asset that the media file has been **downloaded** from.

For example, if you download the SVG file from asset 14, then asset 14 is the //active asset//.

Note that when you add an SVG to a //type//, the active asset is still the asset that you opened the media file from - so the asset that **uses the type** will be the active asset.

Most of the [[embedding codes|embed codes]] work in a way that is relative to the active asset.
