Description

SVGs are not visible or have their colors and transparencies corrupted after added via 'Add Image' in Map Composer. Some SVGs become better visible (but usually only partially or corrupted) after printing to eps.

It happens with any SVG I tried of those shipped with my Gnome or those shipped with QGIS.

History

#1 Updated by Gavin Macaulay - over 17 years ago

This problem is caused by the less than ideal support of svg by Qt. For the moment there's little we can do about this - we're basically waiting for Qt to provide better support for svg, hence I've disabled the svg filter in the load image dialog box, and shifted this ticket to the 0.9 release. SVG's can still be loaded by selecting the *.* filter, etc (SVN c9fed33a (SVN r6068)).

Is this ticket still valid?

#3 Updated by gjm - over 15 years ago

Seems to be much improved. It is likely that there are still problems with svg, given Qt's limited SVG support, but I'd call this ticket resolved.

All looks fine now. Colour SVGs with shadows, transparencies and stuff look OK in the composer and PDF output (using QT 4.4.0, Debian). Closing ticket.
