Hi,

I have a problem that i did not have before.

When i export with "technical illustration" to an SVG file the resulting file has errors.

Many of my callouts are not connected well from the bubble to the model. Here is an example of what i mean.

Also the "highlight" is not in the correct place for the line. It's like there is some scaling issue. Because the numbers for example do not line up nicely with the bubble they are in like in composer

How it looks in composer.....

How it looks in the SVG file (viewed in chrome)

No one else has this question

  Hello Laurier, hello Dirk :wink:,
  i don't have a solution yet, but i'm able to reproduce this issue in MS Edge, MS IE and Crome.
  Not on any callout, but on some:
  Next i will try to publish the SVGs with the new version 2018 SP0.1 (SVG were saved with 2017)
  Cheers, Heiko

Hi Laurier,

Try to use an other attach type for your callouts, to solve that the leader is not connected to the bubble.
I was only able to reproduce this behaviour with the "Simple" attach type, not with the other ones.

For the highlighting issue in the SVG; It isn't the highlight that is moving, but the leader itself. So the highlight is still at the right place, but the line isn't!
I found two SPR's in the Knowledge Base of SOLIDWORKS that are related to this problem;

The good thing is that it is a known problem for the developers. The bad thing is that the SPR's are still open.
