WinSvgSupported function in unit D2DSVGFactory fails in older Delphi versions

[jrathlev]

In the D2DSVGFactory unit, the required Windows version (Windows 10 Creators Update) is queried at the very end (function WinSvgSupported). In older Delphi versions, e.g. 10 Seattle, TOSVersion returns an incorrect build number (always 0), so that the query does not work, see here.

Instead of TOSVersion, the functions from my SysInfo unit (see attached file) can be used at this point:
Result:=CheckOSVersion(10,0) and CheckOSBuild(15063)

Thank you for your feedback, D2DSVGFactory was created by @pyscripter, I don't use it because the SVG support is very limited...
Windows SVG Support
I'll fix as soon as possible...

To @jrathlev
By the way, why use D2DSVGFactory as the default, when Image32 is superior in both performance and SVG support?
Look at this page:
https://ethea.it/docs/svgiconimagelist/SVG-Viewer-(VCL).html
Do you have some svg that Image32 cannot render properly?
Image32 is the best "native" Delphi implementation for SVG, at the moment (and no dlls like Skia4Delphi are needed)

I discovered this when trying out the various options. By default, I am using Image32.

Note that you can use different engines at runtime, changing which Factory to use, as in the SVG-Viewer demo and the Benchmark demo.
