Export SVG Bug? Metadata odm tag missing odm namespace

Hi jodekirk


Can you provide me the original Des file please? SVG preserves lock data so I need to see in the file where that information is.

Also, how you created the des file as a native file or imported data will help also.


Thanks

Hi jodekirk

Got the des file, so it seems to get around this issue it is just to remove the aspid from the object data docker and export. From my understanding aspid in the Object Data is only for CGM exports. The docker itself did not intend to restrict it's access but yet we still export anything in there in SVG.

We should just ignore it and create a svg warning on output if there is something there. I'll request to have it logged in put into the system for evaluation.

Thanks. Is there a way to see all data? I can only find it if clicking on the group. I'd like to make a macro that removes this data without having to click and find the hidden data.

I figured out how to batch delete the data as a workaround. But this probably should be fixed in Designer so the SVGs output as valid XML.

It finds all groups and clears the "apsid".

Sub RemoveApsidObjectData()
  ActiveDocument.BeginCommandGroup "RemoveObjectData"
  Dim shRange As ShapeRange
  Set shRange = ActiveLayer.FindShapes(Type:=cdrGroupShape)
  Dim sh As Shape
  For Each sh In shRange
    If (sh.Type = cdrGroupShape) Then
    sh.ObjectData("apsid").Clear
  End If
  Next
  ActiveDocument.EndCommandGroup
End Sub
