Import SVG file wrong size

Post by Felix D'Kat »

Hi Freecader's

I'm having a problem with the Draft Workbench, Every time I import an SVG it comes in at the wrong size

The SVG is 100mm square and when it hits the draft workbench it's 266.65mm square
Imported as geometry, the file is definitely 100 square, imported from inkscape
Ive tried a few different configs for the SVG file

FreeCAD 19.2
Windows 10
Inkscape 1.1 also tried 1.0
also tried Affinity Designer 1.9

Same results every time

Thanks In Advance

Hi Felix D'Kat, good morning to the Community!
Did you take into account the thickness of the lines?
