Save As DXF, path size and position changes, 1.0beta2
Steps to reproduce:
- open Inkscape
- Draw a rectangle 100 px height x 300 px wide
- Save As DXF 12 or 14 (no options are selected in the dialog)
- Close the file.
- Open that DXF file in Inkscape (read scale from file) (attached dxftest1.dxf)
What happened?
- The rectangle is no longer inside the page borders. (DXF 14)
- The rectangle is now 542.632 px height x 1457.818 px wide (DXF 14)
In my first test, when I used DXF 12 for the test, there was no path found in the resulting DXF file. But in my 2nd test, DXF 12 gave the same result as DXF 14.
Below is a link to the forum thread where this was first discovered, where someone else also got no path in the resulting DXF file using DXF 12.
Also in the Linux Mint test, using mm, the resulting path was smaller than the original, rather than larger.
What should have happened?
- The rectangle should stay the same size.
- The rectangle should stay in the same place.
