SVG imports have shapes moved all over into random spots

It is an affinity designer issue, not the SVG. Other programs that did not create the SVG open it up and display it properly. Inkscape (free software handles it fine) and a web browser from microsoft also handles it fine.

 

The program that creates the SVG can reimport and it is fine.

 

It does this on all SVG files, not just this particular one. Usually i can move things around to line back up but im tired of doing that.

Welcome to the forums @camyers

If you can share an example SVG which shows the problem when imported then we can have a look at it.
We will have a better chance of diagnosing the problem if we can see the problem for ourselves.

Also, are you importing the SVG by opening it as a new document or are you placing it into an existing document?
Also, when you say “all SVG files”, do you mean every single SVG you have ever tried, or just all of a certain kind, or all from a particular source?
Also, it might be good if you can point us to one or more problem areas in the SVG so we don’t have to hunt for the problem.

I open as raw file or drag and drop, happens on both.  This file is made from the same source.  Views fine in web browser and inskscape. Comes in all messed up in Affinity. For these numbers, the black and pink should be centered up. You can see how far off the 7's are, the 4 and 6 are off too.

 

Open in Affinity

Open it in Inkscape

Can you share the actual file, in addition to the screenshots?
