    Default SVG export error with arrow heads

    When I export a diagram with lines with arrowheads, when the lines and arrow heads are coloured black (both outline and fill) and I export to svg, the arrow heads are displayed in the browser (I have used chrome, IE and Edge) as unfilled with a faint black outline. If I, for example, change that same line/arrowheads to colour red, when I export to svg, the arrow heads are displayed correctly as filled with red colour.

    Appears to be a bug? I wondered if it had been fixed in latest release? I am running V16.3.

    Hi PWK, it does look like a bug but I think that's because your exporting a line to svg. However if you select convert line to shape and only use a fill with no stroke it does export as expected.

    Yes, and if you select 90%black instead of 100% black for the line/fill it also exports fine! Go figure

    I have moved this Thread to the Dear Xara... Forum where Xara might notice and act.

    @Xara - Would you or another TGer kindly confirm this Bug in other versions?

    The longer it remains outstanding the more Customers who don't upgrade are left adrift.
