Description physkets 2021-01-31 04:25:26 UTC 
SUMMARY

An SVG image with a 'zoomed-in' portion displayed in a separate patch does not render correctly. The new window should show the zoomed-in version, but only inside the window. Gwenview displays the zoomed-in structures even outside it. Other viewers display this correctly (eg. Firefox).

STEPS TO REPRODUCE

Attached is such an image.

Comment 2 Madhav Kanbur 2021-02-01 09:20:55 UTC 
This appears to be an upstream bug in QT itself. I've filed a bug report here - https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-90803
Comment 3 Madhav Kanbur 2021-02-04 08:16:57 UTC 
I'm not too hopeful of things getting fixed upstream since Qt Svg doesn't have full svg support and should be replaced by a better renderer. QT themselves recommend using QtWebKit (now superseded by QtWebEngine) - https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-12588?focusedCommentId=123082&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#comment-123082

I'm gonna mark this as a duplicate and try porting the code to QtWebEngine.
