Summary0012471: Scribus should warn when it cant import a SVG truthfully
DescriptionSince scribus doesnt understand filters in SVG, it should warn when a SVG is incorrectly imported.

Go on importing as is now is OK as long as the user is warned.

(It could also possibly explain which ar the not-understood filters or create a log file.)
TagsNo tags attached.

To avoid popups it could be a warning sign - somehow stored in the imported objects, i dont know how - as the one that appear for low resolution images

But (jghali) : amof there is such a warning but its hiden because in current state that warning would be displayed allmost all the time.

Perhaps there should be a note in the import dialog that explains or offers a place for people to link to learn more about the details?

EDIT: Lets create a wiki page with the details of the problem.

since the previous approach (always warn when there could have been a difference) did not work (it was always shown), we could try do it the other way round: warning when specific unsupported features are found.

in this case a popup is fine to me.

ale, agreed.
Should we also propose this to become an additional Preflight Verifier check ?

no, the preflight verifier cannot see missing shapes from SVGs... since they have not been imported :-)

ps.: but we could have a dialog similar to the preflight verifier that shows problems happing while you're working on the document...

I dont know why this report has the "commentaire" status but it think it can be considered as a duplicate of 0005941

It's indeed a duplicate.
