Hello Inkscape community,

Today I have strange issue with a svg file when I tried to convert it to png. When opening the svg file in Inkscape, it just show a white rectangle but opening it in Chrome is ok. I suspect that it is svg issue but I checked and the xml format is valid. Can you please check and advise?

Thank you and I look forward to hearing feedback from you

There a 3 filters applied (<filter id="filter">); select all and ungroup - then go Filters->Remove Filters and there you have it back.

Hello Polygon,

Thanks a lot for your help, yes, it works. So I am not really sure that the issue is having multiple filter effects under the same filter tag? Because if I have each filter effect having its own filter tag, it is also ok

Yours sincerely

From the look I guess the filters are not nessecary and browser might ignore them completely in your set up. That's why they work there. So my question would be: Why the filters?

The browser(s) is not ignoring the filter, you can toggle it on and off and it has a visible effect.
Can you toggle the filter on and off in Inkscape (Selectors and CSS dialog) without crashing?

Edit: Screenshot from Firefox added

From my testing the filters have no effect in Safari browser e.g., so I thought they were skipped during rendering. And they have a bad side effect in Inkscape hence I guess it's not done in Inkscape.

OP asked about Chrome.

Looks like Safari has som nice tools too.

I don't have Chrome but checked additionally in Safari which confirms it looks ok in Browser. Still in doubt about the used filters.

And yes Safari has an awesome developer mode. I give gxxxxgle a wide berth wherever I can.
