tau Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 (edited) The bmc-remedy-1.svg file crashes Designer. I tried using svgcleaner to remediate and created bcc-remedy-2.svg but it likewise crashes Designer... Any idea why Designer crashes? bmc-remedy-1.svg bmc-remedy-2.svg Inserting this at the start doesn't help... <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?> <!DOCTYPE svg PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD SVG 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/1.1/DTD/svg11.dtd"> Edited March 4, 2020 by tau Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tau Posted March 4, 2020 Author Share Posted March 4, 2020 Finally used Inkscape to import and export it again... So I am unblocked, but would be good if Designer was more resilient when parsing SVGs bmc-remedy-6.svg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anton P. Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 Hi tau, try inserting the following code, replacing your svg-opening tag. Xml must be line 1! <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?> <!DOCTYPE svg PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD SVG 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/1.1/DTD/svg11.dtd"> <svg width="2500" height="698" viewBox="20.5 268.6 600 106.7" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xml:space="preserve" xmlns:serif="http://www.serif.com/"> bmc-remedy-2.svg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Sean P Posted March 9, 2020 Staff Share Posted March 9, 2020 Hi Tau, There is a known issue that opening an SVG containing a minus height/width value will cause Designer to crash. Just changing the height from -698 to 698 will allow the SVG to open without crashing Designer. I'll get this bumped with development - thanks for letting us know.
