Description Rafael Linux User 2023-08-23 01:00:31 UTC

SUMMARY
***
When it comes to importing any simple SVG file, after entering the DPI requested by Krita from the user, the import is always performed at a resolution of just a few pixels. I have tried with different very simple SVG files and with DPIs from 72 to 1200, and all the times the result is a layer with a very low resolution image composed by very few pixels.
***

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open a image (HD, FHD ... 72 or 300 dpi)
2. Drag a SVG simple to Krita (as KDE or Plasma logo in SVG)
3. Enter 300 when asked for DPI for the rendered image

OBSERVED RESULT
Always get a new layer with a really low DPI, about 10x10 pixels

EXPECTED RESULT
To get a layer with the SVG rendered to user specified DPI

I would like to suggest that it would be more interesting to ask for the size (width or height) than the density, since the user will always have an idea of how much he wants his imported image to occupy, instead of trying to import with different densities.
