SVG Export question/odditity

[Richard Knapp]

I am working to export a 'shadow' version of my project. I tried many options and finally got the export as SVG with walls. The export worked fine but looking at the image, something didn't look correct.

I thought it might be program importing image so I tried a generic SVG viewer and see the same thing.

It appears some of the passage dimensions are reversed in the SVG version versus the Aven displaced Tubes. (trying to figure out how to attach the SVG and an Aven screen shot for comparison)

SVG Export from Aven

It looks to me from the two images like the L and R dimensions are simply swapped in the SVG (the passages in Aven look much more plausible in shape). I'll investigate.

[Olly Betts]

I made a simple example, but this looks the same in aven and in the SVG export so it's not a simple case of L and R being switched.

Are you able to share the data? A cut-down version which still shows the problem would be fine (better even!) You can email it direct to me if you'd rather not put it somewhere public.

Thanks for the off-ticket example .3d file.

That was enough for me to spot what I was missing in trying to reproduce the problem - things work fine for a plan when North is up, but in your example the cave is in plan but rotated, and the LR lines aren't getting rotated correctly in that situation (they aren't unrotated though, which would be the obvious way for this to be going wrong).

[Olly Betts]

So as a workaround you can probably export with a bearing of 0 and perform any rotation you want after importing (assuming whatever you're importing into supports that).
