Thoudans Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 Hello -- I created a SVG map in Inkscape on Linux, and now that I am on a Mac, I want to use Affinity. So I imported my pap and it is clipped, though affinity seems to still see some objects that to not appear in the lower left hand section of the document. The text is something I can fix, what I am interested in is getting the whole image into Affinity. Please see screenshots for details.

firstdefence Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 It looks like the blue of the sea is off centre? Any chance you can upload the file or a layer reduced version i.e. remove the shading layers and text layers? Have you tried turning off the Layers one by one to see if turning a layer off removes the clip?

I also removed the layers one by one, and no change. FWIW, the whole document appears in LibreOffice Draw, but in an ugly way. The sea is correct, it is like, as cataloger said, SE England and the nearest parts of France are just gone. I can see the "misspelling" notations in the SE, but not the land.

catlover Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 Sorry for the lame joke. Can you upload the file, so that we can have a closer look ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firstdefence Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 Install Inkscape, open the file in Inkscape and then try exporting it as a PDF file. and open it in Affinity. Inkscape writes different SVG code to Affinity, it's not too dissimilar but may be enough to screw things up when Affinity tries to interpret that SVG code. You can actually open a SVG up in a text editor to view the code.
