Thanks for this fine app. SVG from InputDraw 1.5 does not load properly into ImageMagick 6.4.1. ImageMagick fills the paths even when fill=”none”

Have you tried the new JS script ? It is supposed to fix some issues.
Here is the link:

Hi. Great product.

One problem. I can’t seem to get it to work in IE7 without it throwing javascript errors (actually the same error several times). After the errors, it works fine and they seem to be coming from the swf file, not the js files.

Error Text
“svgdraw_place_swf12345 is undefined”
where the number part will be different each time the page is loaded.

I have several clients who can use this and would be interested if I can get IE7 working.

Thanks!

Hello Henrique,

Sure it does.. Just set it to a hidden field and get it on server side on the POST.

Thanks for the interest.

Hello there,
First congratulations for the project.

one question:

Is it possible o let users save there drawings direct in my website server?

If then, I would definetly give it a try.

DOH!! I figured it out- not a bug on your side, sorry. Finally realized that Rails is sanitizing the svg text when it saves it to the database, in the process slightly altering it. Don’t know why I didn’t think of this! Sorry for the confusion, and thanks for the great project!

hmm… the AddSvg does the same process in rendering that when it gets the content by “src_svg” argument.
Was that keyword the only thing you changed ? Was the svg using ‘ ou ” ?

If you got it to work, that’s the important bit but I’ll be sure to take a look at that on the next development iteration.

Once again, thanks for the feedback.

Hi T
Sorry for the confusion- the ‘viewbox’ is text in the svg text that is generated and placed in the textarea in the form. It works find when I recreate the an InputDraw object using :id. I wasn’t using inputdraw.AddSvg(’…’), just creating a viewer and using :src_svg, and pointing it at the generated svg text, this wasn’t (and isn’t) working. However, when I use a regex to replace ‘viewbox’ with ‘viewBox’ in the svg text, then :src_svg works when I create a viewer (not the full editor). I caught the problem by looking at one of your examples, which has “viewBox” in the svg text. I could also just be doing something wrong?!

Hi Matt, thanks for the feedback.
If you see the homepage of InputDraw, the textarea form field has “viewBox” on it. That is the svg that gets of off the widget and that goes into the thumbnail widget.
So, I don’t understand here you see “viewbox”.
But, if you try to use the javascript with inputdraw.AddSvg(‘…’), you will see that both “viewBox” and “viewbox” work fine.

Maybe I didn’t understand .. could you help me ?
