Beginners' Questions Image is cut-off at the edges

    Hi all! I made a vector image in InkScape but somehow the edges seem to get cut off. I can't find out why this is happening. When I move the 'borders' of the image, I obviously change the image (enlarge it, for example) and the cut-off edges remain.

    Can anyone point me in the right direction? I never had this issue before using InkScape.

    Many thanks in advance :)

    Do you have any kind of filter or perhaps a small amount of blur added? I've seen strokes cutting off like this when there's blur.

    If you switch to the node tool, you should see a diamond node at the top left and another at the bottom right. Drag these out a bit and the rest of the stroke should show.

    There is no filter or blur set, at least not that I could find.

    I didn't fully manage to follow your second option; when I move the diamonds I modify the image (I move a node).

    Interestingly, when I make a clip out of my path the cut-off is gone. But so are the settings of my path...

    Can you share the SVG?

    One other thought... Check there's no blur on the layer itself.

    I shared the SVG with you via email, and as it turned out there actually was an accidental blur on one of the layers.

    So for others: that indeed was the solution. Thanks again for helping me out!

    You're welcome, and thanks for sharing the solution for the benefit of others. 😁
