SVG File Issues
Hi, sorry to gatecrash this thread but I'm having a persistent problem when importing SVG files into SL360. The SVGs regularly tend to be (what I describe as) 'clipped'. See example below (the red arrows denote the clipped areas). My process is to export the SVG out of Adobe Illustrator and into SL360. This clipping happens often when exporting from AI to SL360. It's almost like the bounding box crops the SVG. I have received some helpful workarounds from fellow community members but I would love to know why this happens and if there is something I can do to stop it happening at source.
Many thanks in advance!
Indeed this is an issue i do encounter too. Why it happens eludes me too...and would be good to know ( or even better fix by Articulate ). Workaround i use is making the artboard/bounding box size a tiny bit bigger...and then it doesnot happen.

Thanks for your input, Math! Do you mind sharing the affected SVG files as well? Also, does the issue only happen when SVG files are created using Adobe Illustrator? What happens when you use the SVG files I shared with Alex above?

Thanks Math,
Yes that is my workaroud too. A little cumbersome and time consuming when you're working with a lot of SVG icons (as I am in my current project) but it does solve the issue.
