Hi All!

When I invoke this command

\startMPcode picture p ; p := lmt_svg [ filename ="pil.svg" ]; draw p; \stopMPcode

I get weird results, the arrowhead points in wrong direction

That one is because lmt_svg does not properly consider the

orient=“auto"

in the marker definition. I played with setting it to actual angles, and then the output is ok.

and is very tiny compared to the size it was meant to have.

The path in the marker has its own transform, and that seems to be ignored by lmt_svg. (I do not see how a scale of (-1.1,-1.1) would make it that much bigger, but I know that manually altering the values does nothing, so I guess that must be it). No solution, but I hope this helps Hans somewhat... Best wishes, Taco
