Description: I am using LibreOffice Draw to customize SVG images, usually scientific plots. I was using the "Break" command to separate the different elements of the image which could then be modified individually. It used to work like a charm with LibreOffice 5 but I recently updated to version 6.2.4 and this feature is now quite buggy. When using "Break" on an SVG image, some parts of the image are deleted. I have tested this for different versions of LibreOffice and this problem seems to come with version 6. I have also tested this issue with several computers (MacOS and Linux) but this does not solve the problem. Steps to Reproduce: 1.Open an SVG file with LibreOffice 2.Choose "Shape-Break" 3. Actual Results: Some parts of the image have been deleted Expected Results: "Break" should only have separated the different elements of the file from one another Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No Additional Info:
@Etienne : would you have a sample Draw document with an SVG image in it that we could try and reproduce this behaviour with ? Does the problem occur with all SVGs, or only some (particular) images ?

Hi Alex, thank you for your answer. I added an example as an attachment. In this example, you have an SVG image of a plot. When I break the image on my computer (see other attachment), the frame of the plot partly dissapears. This problem has occurred with all SVGs that I have tried so far. It seems however that it is mostly thin lines which are erased.

Thanks Etienne. Confirming with Version: 6.4.0.0.alpha0+ Build ID: eda0568ec550a10b962c2427edfe05ea3197f107 CPU threads: 4; OS: Mac OS X 10.14.5; UI render: default; VCL: osx; Locale: fr-FR (fr_FR.UTF-8); UI-Language: en-US Calc: threaded
I can confirm that this is broken at least all the way back to LO4.1.x, don't currently have anything older with which to test.
Setting OS to all, as reported happening on Linux too, and replicated on Windows as well
I've created a draw document with variations of a small svg file. Some of them break as expected some of them don't. The svg file contains a blue line without and a red line with a clip path. - red line without clip path first -> expected behaviour - clip path intersects blue line -> expected behaviour - cropping the inserted image works like a work around -> expected behaviour - clip path && bounding box of red line touch blue line -> buggy
