    Default attaching a QwtPlotSvgItem to a plot does not work

    Qt Code:
    1. QwtPlot myPlot;
    2. //...
    3.  
    4. QwtPlotSvgItem bla("test");
    5. // https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/0/02/SVG_logo.svg
    6. if (!bla.loadFile(QRectF(0,0,640,480), "e:/SVG_logo.svg"))
    7. qDebug("fail to load?");
    8. else
    9. qDebug("load OK");
    10.  
    11. bla.attach(myPlot);
    To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

    Also a stripped down svg fails:

    Qt Code:
    1. <?xml version="1.0" ?>
    2. <!DOCTYPE svg PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD SVG 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/1.1/DTD/svg11.dtd">
    3. <svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" width="100%" height="100%" viewBox="0 0 100 100">
    4. <rect
    5. id="background"
    6. fill="#FF9900"
    7. width="100"
    8. height="100"
    9. rx="4"
    10. ry="4"/>
    11. </svg>
    To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

    Fails means: it is not displayed. It loads fine (true is returned).

    Default Re: attaching a QwtPlotSvgItem to a plot does not work

    Can you load your SVG into the svgmap example ?

    QwtPlotSvgItem is for scaling a SVG into a specific area in plot coordinates. In your case you have set ( 0, 0, 640, 480 ) - what might be wrong as it sounds like being screen/widget coordinates.
    If you want to display a SVG at a specific position you can use a QwtSymbol in combination with a curve or marker. In this case the size of the SVG is independent from the scales.
