    ETA:  This now appears to be Design Space mishandling transform-translate issues.  

    (tried to remove post but...)

     

    ETA: The tranform appears to happen when I resize the document to the contents.

     

    Preface:  I use Inkscape to design for Cricut Design Space.   

    What I am seeing affects sizing when I import the (plain) svg file into Design Space. 

    When the path (as simple as a 1" square) is inside a layer, the code in the svg file will have a transform applied to the layer.  It is this that causes the issue.  

    If I save the svg with the document settings as units=pixel and user units per inch = 72, then the file will work correctly.

    If I save the svg with the document settings as units=inch and an user units per inch =72 then the file ends up displaying in Design Space as a 72 inch square, not a 1" square.

    If I remove the transform from the layer, or if I remove the path from within the layer, all works well. 

    Can someone explain the reason that Inkscape is adding the transform to the layer?  (I don't think it was doing that as of 1.1RC) 

    Thanks!
