Hi all,
I'm using Inkscape 1.1 (c68e22c387, 2021-05-23), and running into unexpected behavior with text, as explained below:
My drawing has a text item with hard newlines and specific spacing between baselines (1.1). I save it as plain SVG, close the file, then reopen it. The text item's baseline to baseline appears to have reverted to 1.0, but the text now appears to be on one line, and if I insert newlines, everything just gets jumbled together on the same line. If I add material, different lines have different baseline to baseline distances.
The bottom line is I have to completely recreate the text item from scratch on every edit, which slows things to say the least.
This is probably intermittent, because I have another text item that so far, from minimal investigation, appears not to have this problem.
I can also tell you that I seem to remember problems like this (rarely) in earlier versions, but I can't remember any details.
* Has anybody else encountered this?
* Can anybody tell me what I'm doing wrong, and how to do it right?
Thanks,
