Strange SVG import


Recommended Posts

I've tried this in browsers as well as Pixelmator Pro and Boxy-SVG, which have far superior SVG support. They all display it properly. (And come highly recommended for SVG work.) The code is literally just one type of shape repeated...

<path id="a" d="M2.991,0.815A3.1,3.1 0 0 0 2.991,-0.815L4.825,-1.311A5,5 0 0 1 4.825,1.311"/>

with a simple transform to rotate and place it in the correct positions.

<use xlink:href="#a" fill="#fe2712" transform="rotate(30)"/>

The problem, I believe is that Affinity Designer is incompatible with the CSS rotate transform function. Which honestly, is such a basic feature. Although SVGs typically use the matrix transform function, Affinity should've thought of this when designing for SVG compatibility.

Warning: As per the spec, you should be able to also use CSS transform functions. However, the compatibility isn't guaranteed.

Anyway, I've converted these transforms into matrix transforms, which Affinity supports.

I've logged and pass this over to the developers as it imports correctly in Designer on macOS.

Not on OS 11.6.4

I am talking about the first file posted from dfleury2 not the fixed file from Zen22, the files have the same name.

Mac Pro (Late 2013) Mac OS 12.7.4 
Affinity Designer 2.4.1 | Affinity Photo 2.4.1 | Affinity Publisher 2.4.1 | Beta versions as they appear.

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that.
