Okay, I'll do that now. Thanks

This is a bug in the GIMP SVG import. Your file displays fine in Batik, Opera, Safari and Firefox.

Can you please bug-report this problem at the GIMP project?

Thanks, Andreas

I followed the tutorial http://www.webschuur.com/publications/blogs/2007-01-09-fancy_rays_in_inkscap... here to make a nifty radial pattern in Inkscape but when it's opened in the GIMP, some of the stripes appear dark red instead of with their gradient. http://www.petaimg.com/uploads/1201457817.svg - This is a link to the SVG (you can open it in Inkscape or GIMP to see what I mean} http://www.petaimg.com/uploads/1201402880.jpg- This is a link to a screenshot of the GIMP with my file open

Is this a GIMP or Inkscape bug? The image displays correctly when opened in Firefox AND, interestingly, when I rotate the radial spokes around in Inkscape, save and open in GIMP, the dark part has moved as well. There's something about those particular radii.

Hey Claus,

The problem isn't that the background has transparency, but the fact that three of the "spokes" are solid red instead of a gradient from yellow to red. I will bear in mind your Inkscape > PNG > GIMP tip, though; thanks ;)

Hi Sean,

from what I see this isn't a bug. The checkerboard pattern you see in the Gimp is due to the gradient being partially transparent. If you make a new white layer, move it underneath the layer containing the gradient, and then merging the two layers, your gradient should be displayed just fine.

Btw, I personally don't import SVGs into the Gimp. I export the SVGs inside Inkscape to PNGs first, and then load the PNGs into the Gimp.

HTH,

Claus
