I've just remembered another issue I've been having with svg - some svgs are displaying a black line across the bottom of the screen in kdenlive, the first thing I did which fixed the problem temporarily was turn off "show page shadow" in inkscape, but it came back. It doesn't seem to happen with all svgs but I can't figure out why some work and some don't. I'll attach an svg that displays the strange black line and screenshot of it in displaying the line kdenlive.

Thanks for looking into this, I'm new to video editing and loving kdenlive, awesome tool, your hard work is much appreciated!
Created attachment 118758 [details] screenshot of inkscape svg not displaying properly in kdenlive Sorry to keep posting problems, I hope you find it helpful - svg text seems to have moved to the right in kdenlive, also the bounding box transparency is displaying weirdly (in a way that means I'm going to need to make it another way)

In XFCE desktop I have no problem. But in KDE, same problem seen in file manager thumbnail. And if I add svg in XFCE (Xubuntu), there is no problem on Kubuntu(KDE). If I remove svg on Kubuntu then readd problem appears.
Hi I'm experiencing the same problems. New lines are not displayed and text is moved to the right using SVG files imported from Inkscape. I'm using Kdenlive 19.12.0 running on Ubuntu 19.10

QtSvg module only has limited support for SVG (it only supports the SVG Tiny subset).
Well is the use of the (In reply to Christoph Feck from comment #13) > QtSvg module only has limited support for SVG (it only supports the SVG Tiny > subset). Is the use of QTSvg new to version 19? I never experienced this issue with previous versions of Kdenlive
I too have this issue. And I can confirm that it is new to version 19 (and I'm using a 2020 version of Kdenlive too now). It's very annoying! I'm having to convert every svg I make in Inkscape to a png, and do this for all those I'd previously created and had used without issue directly as svg files. Why did it work before but not now?
