I send this message here because they concern settings files created for
Inkscape and I think everybody concerned by svg creation could be concerned.
Some time ago I placed some svg filters files on OpenClipart and more recently I
heard from users that they didn't work despite all my tests were positive.
Yesterday I discovered that following the way you take to download them they
work or not. The problem seems to be specific to Firefox and doesn't occur with
other browsers (tried with Safari, Opera and Chrome).
Here are the address of the two files :
The first one is an Inkscape template which activates filters for background
images or objects :
http://www.openclipart.org/detail/92749
This second one contains color filters decicated to work on background object or
images (place any shape on top of a picture and apply the filters to this shape)
:
http://www.openclipart.org/detail/92977
Here is the problem :
- When you click on the "Download SVG" button on the OpenClipart page it
opens the svg in Firefox. Then, if you save this SVG file displayed in Firefox
and try to work with it in Inkscape it doesn't work because Firefox changed
something in the file.
- If you right click on the "Download SVG" button and do "Save target as",
then the file download unchanged on your disk and all works as expected.
Could somebody send the bug to Firefox ?
Thanks for your attention,
ivan
