I am a Newbie in Inkscape. I tried to find a solution on the internet but I didn't find anything about exporting XML for Android drawable resource directory.

I would like to be sure if this program is really unable to convert or export SVG to that XML format. If so, can I export selected icons in this specific XML format?

The XML used for an Android VectorDrawable resource is specific to Android and therefor not something you will easily be able to export from any general image editing software.

You have a number of options.


Android has Vector Asset Studio, with which you can import an SVG file to and export the XML resource you need.
SVG to VectorDrawable Converter is a command line tool that requires Inkscape to run.
Android SVG to VectorDrawable is an online drag & drop converter.


You should keep in mind that VectorDrawable doesn't support all SVG features. Notably patterns, masks, gradients, images. You are basically limited to basic paths.
