Inkscape design import to scalp 5 pro

Recommended Posts

Rectangles with radiused corners in Inkscape, made exactly how i need them.  I save them as plain svg, import them into scalp and get squared off corners ... what’s going on here?

Link to the svg.  Maybe save as eps from Inkscape.  Many programs have a quirk with svg's when the units are not set to pixels.

That’s what it was...eps works fine!  Thanks

Because SVG is an open format not all programs implement it exactly the same way. I suspect what is happening here is the way Inkscape implements the rounded corners is not supported in SCALP. When you save it off as an EPS the box with rounded corners which is an object is converted to a path and therefor opens in SCALP exactly as you expect. As an experiment, try converting your box with rounded corners to a path and then save the file as an SVG and open it with SCALP. I suspect it'll open correctly that way.
