Symbol is not cropped despite viewport and viewBox is set

Summary:

Writing a svg file on a text editor, I set a viewport and a viewbox to restrict the displayed area of the drawing.

When previewing the file in a web browser, the symbol is cropped in accordance with the height and width attributes defined in the symbol tag.

When previewing the file in Inkscape, the symbol is not cropped.

Steps to reproduce:

  • open the 'draft_viewbox_viewport.svg' file with Inkscape
  • notice the preview in Inkscape is different than the preview in a web browser

2025-01-18_091654_webbrowser_preview

What happened?

On each instance of the symbol (which 'id' is "myDot"), both circles are fully displayed.

What should have happened?

The second circle (which 'id' is "circle11604") should be cropped on every instance of the symbol. The preview should display only a quarter circle as the rest is out of the viewport.
