    Hi there,
    I have been struggling with an issue for a few hours now with no luck. I have a SVG file in Inkscape that renders as empty no matter where I try to render it e.g. Chrome, Linux image viewer etc. except when I open it in Inkscape or Gimp it looks fine. I have tried all export options but keep getting the same result. Pretty sure I have the basics right about view box etc.
    Can somebody please have a look at the SVG and tell me what I do clearly not understand about the SVG format and Inkscape since I cannot figure out how to change the file to render elsewhere:ย https://drive.google.com/file/d/1NR6fNCK0S7MN3mxSJ9S1Sumh7ewUsENf/view?usp=sharing

    Thanks,ย

    Object>Unlock All

    Edit>Select All In All Layers

    Object>Clip>Release Clip

    You should have large numbers of black clone objects now.

    Edit>Find/Replace

    At the bottom of the find options, uncheck 'all types' and check 'clones' - click Find

    Then

    Edit>Delete

    I would then just select all and copy / paste to a new document

    Then use Edit>Resize Page to selection in the new document.

    It's a known bug in Inkscape.

    Good to know that a general fix is on the way. Thank you @Aero.
