3) put in <defs> gradients used by design
4) call it with
add_list_scroll("svg/list_scroll.svg","messages","Change color\nof rectangle\nin green",color.join("\n"), num);
in order: file for design, name of group where put fragment, string for text, string for options in list,number for using
5) create function to use result in main SVG as this
( svgdoc must be name for SVGDocument and name of group + "_use_list_scroll" name of function )
