SVG import bug probably related to text transformation

[Anonymous]

Hi,

I want to 3D print or CNC a drill stand for several drills in ascending diameter.

Therefore, I wrote a Python script to generate an SVG to import in Fusion 360 as a sketch and then extrude.

When opening with Firefox or Inkscape, the SVG looks the same and represents what I need.

When inserting the SVG file into a Fusion sketch, the numbers are off.

I think this might have to do something with the transformation or text anchors I am using, as the circles seem to be placed correctly.

Also, the text size seems different.

Is this a bug or is there a special setting I need to change (or a plugin I need to use, like with DXF, where text import is only working with the DXF import plugin) to make this work?

Regards,

Timo

I see an error in inkscape not sure if it's down to an old version or not having the font you've used. What I did find is if I select everything then convert Objects To Path, save as plane SVG I do at least get the same in Fusion.

Fusion.

Another option is move the text. As the geometry is Fixed you can just window select then move about 8mm. I noticed in Inkscape your text is right aligned, Fusion does not have this option for simple text so probably where the error is coming from.

This is the "solution" (moving it up by about half the "pt"-fontsize in mm) I went with.

"Solution", because in my opinion, an SVG should look the same everywhere - as it does in most browsers and, also, Inkscape (for me at least).

I used Arial Black which is recognized by Fusion 360 and prints a bit better (no font set previously, just fontsize and "bold" type). But that didn't really fix the problem, just made it more readable when printed. I also split the SVG so I can import the text into a second sketch and work my way around it from there on.

I still think that this is a bug and not really implemented well in Fusion.

Thanks for the help, @HughesTooling!
