cleaning + good-svgview.rb and corrected paris.svg #171

Closed passenger94 closed 8 years ago

IanTrudel commented 8 years ago

What are the corrections (and what for) in paris.svg?

passenger94 commented 8 years ago

short story : librsvg is confused by some (not all) kinds of template placements (i'm calling "template" a group that end up in "def" section of an svg file, then cloned away in an actual visible group, by use directive), anyway librsvg reports whimsical dimensions and offsets, making Shoes unable to do proper placement ...

basically i resetted matrices to origin and put back objects in place (apparently Inkscape is not the better tool at this) This corrected file is only to be used as a demo for good-svgview.rb, showing Shoes behavior with a file that librsvg sees as correct ...

if it tells you something, problematic bits were always letters or numbers at the bottom-right or top-left corners, but not all of them, for example all kings, all jacks, 10s ..., jokers (the symbols, for them)

Will your tool to correct svg included along the ride? This could be a worthwhile tool to ensure compatibility with svg downloaded from the Internet.

I used Inkscape, but it was a pain for that task ...

Then a procedure should be documented on the wiki.
