Microsoft is releasing a fresh Build (8424) to Office Insiders on Windows Fast Ring.
Version 1708 on Insider Fast has a new feature which lets Office users ungroup SVG images and Office icons, and convert them into Office shapes.
Converting icons into shapes allows for rich editing, including coloring individual elements, adding gradients, and editing specific points of your graphic.
