Trouble with 0.43 reading 0.40-saved works
Dear Mates,
I'm having some very painful troubles with the brandnew 0.43 release. Namely, when I try to open SVG files that I saved with 0.40, font elements usually get shifted, and stars, circles, and squares get totally black, even if they were supposed to be yellow with red border colour. This is kinda problematic because I don't have 0.40 installed along with 0.43, but sometimes it'd be pretty handy to work with these antique resources.
Now, it's possible that someone already asked this stuff earlier here, or it was an officially announced 'Known issue,' however I haven't found anything very certain so far.
Should I reinstall 0.40 and leave advancement for the pros? Or can it be solved somehow with 0.43?
Thank you in advance, Gabor Nyeki.

It is impossible to say anything unless you provide us with examples. Did you file a bug with those files attached?

NetBSD 2.0 RC3, Inkscape 0.43 from pkgsrc, with hacked src/isnan.h to make the two defined macros work (strictly according to the header's comments.)

You mean if I posted a bugreport? No, I thought it might be wiser to examine it first somehow.

Thanks for the example. The SF site is down now so I can't refer you to the bug report, but this is a known issue. It's a bug in pre-0.43 versions, not in 0.43. The older versions sometimes wrote numbers with exponents in CSS where this is not allowed, and 0.43 rejects such style specifications. To manually fix your file, replace in a text editor all instances of "2.4424907e-14" by "0" and it will load in 0.43 fine.

And that's it, it works. Thank you very much for your help!
