JohaWeber Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 Hey there, >> v.1.5.3.62-b while exporting some artboards with icons via the export-persona, a clip-path-tag with the size of the related artboard gets added to every exported SVG which then gets added as clip-path-attribute including every path/element that was intended to be exported in the related SVG. I think this is not intended by design? There is no reason to have a clip-path with the exact size as the viewbox (which in this case represents the artboard) - because the viewbox will solve any occuring usecases. If this clip-path gets added to solely represent the created slice on that artboard, then we definitely need another solution than creating slices to export multiple artboards at once.

JohaWeber Posted April 4, 2017 Author Share Posted April 4, 2017 Any reaction to this? this really drives me insane when creating iconsets for the web - I always have to handle the files on more time after export, which then makes the advantage of affinity designers export functions somewhat obsolete (regarding the time effort) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rubs Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 Although I didn't have the same scenario, I exported a lot of SVGs some months ago and I found a lot of other issues. I've reported some of them and a couple were fixed alrewady. Nevertheless, SVG and PDF exporting is definitely one area where AD needs improvement.

Staff Sean P Posted April 4, 2017 Staff Share Posted April 4, 2017 Hi JohaWeber,This came up a little while back. It is already been passed onto development to allow export of artboards to SVG without including the clip-path. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohaWeber Posted April 4, 2017 Author Share Posted April 4, 2017 Sean P, thx for feedback. What I would like to add: Not always does a clipping path gets added when exporting with a slice. I don't really get the pattern when AD decides to add a clipping path and when not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
