SVG Import Scaling Causes Flip and Stroke Disappearance in Moho Pro 14

Post by kvcsmat »

When importing SVG files into Moho Pro 14, the scaling option in the Import SVG dialog causes unexpected behavior.
If I choose Scaling → Fit to Screen (50%, 100%, or 200%), the imported SVG appears rotated/flipped (as if rotated 180° clockwise).

In addition, many strokes disappear, which seems to happen because Moho applies a negative scale that collapses the stroke width to zero.
If I import the same SVG with Scaling → 100% (no scale), everything works perfectly — shapes and strokes are preserved, orientation is correct.

Steps to Reproduce:
Create a simple shape with strokes in Adobe Illustrator (SVG 1.1 export).
Import the SVG into Moho Pro 14.
In the import dialog, select Scaling → Fit to 100% of Screen (or 50% / 200%).
Observe that the image is flipped and strokes disappear.
Repeat with Scaling → 100% (no scale) and note that the import is correct.

Expected Behavior:
Scaling should resize the imported SVG without changing its orientation or stroke appearance.

Workaround:
Always choose Scaling → 100% (no scale) and manually resize the layer inside Moho.
