SVG bugs about material-design-icons HOT 12 CLOSED

Could you point me at where I could see the specific bugs triggered?

If I look here, http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Material_design_icons, I can visually see some that look incorrect.

Our SVGs should be pretty simple and clean though, so I'm actually surprised to hear you're seeing bugs, and surprised to see so many rendering poorly.

Give me some more detail and I'll help fix this.

This one: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=620923 (absence of leading zeroes).

from material-design-icons.

Yes, usually leading zeros missing is the case.in simple paths shapes.

from material-design-icons.

Without leading 0 is within spec. Gnome still hasn't fixed a 4+ year old bug; that's on them. I would prefer not to have to add extra code that's not needed by 95% of the other usecases.

from material-design-icons.

Yeah, that's absolutely Gnome's folks are to blame. But this is just a couple of zeroes (and having leading zeroes is also perfectly up to specs) to make 100% happy.

from material-design-icons.

I don't think this project should be in the business of backfilling for other people's bugs. The right people to ask for a fix are the Gnome team.

from material-design-icons.

Thanks for all the detail all.

Our SVGs are correct and within the SVG spec to the best of my knowledge.

The issue of missing leading zeros (and spaces), is one that uncovers bugs in a number of platforms that handle SVGs, so we may change our format in the future. Stay tuned.

@behdad fixed the bug on librsvg and Commons also applied the patch so this is no longer an issue. Thanks everyone!

from material-design-icons.

That's great to hear. Thanks for the update @ebraminio!

from material-design-icons.

That's great, but fixed librsvg will land into distributions only in spring cycle, I believe. Also there are other affected libs to keep in mind as far as I understand.

from material-design-icons.

Do you guys pass your SVGs through svgo? That's how I discovered the bug (in the context of Noto Color Emoji). If you have other optimization technics, I like to hear.

Actually a release of librsvg was made recently by @hughsie. It's 2.40.6, which means distros should be able to pick it up in their updates.
