I get a problem with arrow. I can make arrow with inkscape, but if I Copy / Paste on a document like word or powerpoint, all arrowes are moved to the right. Is it a bug, or maybe an option to tick ?
I've also encountered a similar problem where arrowed strokes are not displayed correctly in other software.
To ensure that arrowed strokes in SVG format display correctly in other software, I always do the following steps:
1. covert the stroke to a path (ctrl+alt+c)
2. choose the color to set fill (because converting the stroke to a path makes the arrowhead transparent)
Converting objects to paths can always solve problems like this, but I also wonder why some SVG object/text are displayed incorrectly in other software. Is this a bug?
SVG files are originally for web display, but have many uses outside of web. This does not mean they are universally supported by other platforms and renderers.
You are right. The arrowheads are displayed correctly when the SVG files are opened in a web browser. So, I guess that currently, converting arrowed strokes to paths is unavoidable when the SVG file needs to be used in other software.
