SVG issue

Open OshidaBCF opened this issue 1 year ago • 2 comments

it seems that winmerge doesn't support when a svg has a lot of different color, it write everything as black

for exemple this should look like the flag of brazil (it's a new file) image image

even some basic shape doesn't work image image

yet some other shapes work properly image

i don't know if it's a complexity limit or something similar

WinMerge renders SVG files using the Direct2D functionality. Unfortunately, this is a limited feature, so there are some elements that are not supported, as in the following URL. This is probably why they are not drawn correctly:

I see, that's a shame
