[Solved] SVG Resolution setting

Post by jlomicka »

I'm having trouble with the Open/Imageformats/SVG setting, as it is not doing what I expect.

I'm writing an application that generates SVG at 90ppi, and want to use GC to print the results actual size. I set the resolution to 90, but nothing changes, it still renders at 72.

I've changed my app to use 72, so I'm not blocked by this, but somehow I think I must be misunderstanding what this setting is for?

The SVG is very simple, consisting only of single width black lines and text.
(Although, GC doesn't seem to want to render my text either. Is that normal?)

GC 12.5 (7075) Mac Studio (Arm)

Solved. Thorsten helped me to understand that the setting sets the bitmap resolution, not the SVG coordinate system, which is always in 72nds of inches. This makes more sense now that I understand it. One might say the problem was between the chair and the keyboard.
