Hangman Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 While I appreciate the Affinity apps don't support CSS Level 4 specification 8-digit Hex codes, SVG files containing an 8-digit Hex code can still be opened but in doing so the Hex Codes are incorrectly read i.e., instead of reading the first six characters of the eight digit HEX code and ignoring the transparency values, i.e. the last two digits of the Hex Code, Affinity apps read the last six digits when the SVG is opened... This results in the following where the final two characters represent the alpha value: #FF000000 (red with 0% alpha) opens as #000000 (black) #FF000080 (red with 50% alpha) opens as #000080 (dark blue) #00FF0000 (green with 0% alpha) opens as #FF0000 (red) #00FF0080 (green with 50% alpha) opens as #FF0080 (magenta) #0000FF00 (blue with 0% alpha) opens as #00FF00 (green) #0000FF80 (blue with 50% alpha) opens as #00FF80 (light green) Patrick Connor and Alfred 2 Quote Affinity Designer 2.5.5 | Affinity Photo 2.5.5 | Affinity Publisher 2.5.5 MacBook Pro M3 Max, 36 GB Unified Memory, macOS Sonoma 14.6.1, Magic Mouse HP ENVY x360, 8 GB RAM, AMD Ryzen 5 2500U, Windows 10 Home, Logitech Mouse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
