1167484 - Scaled down SVG with filter:drop-shadow gets covered up

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(Core :: SVG, defect)

Description

[Andreas Pehrson [:pehrsons]]

Attachment: testcase: with filter:drop-shadow

See the attachment. Having a (here fully transparent) drop-shadow on the svg element covers it up on the left and top sides.

Attachment: reference: without filter:drop-shadow

Removing the filter:drop-shadow style completely does not cover anything up. I would have expected the test case and the reference to be identical.

Works as expected in Chrome.

The viewBox transform does not apply to the drop-shadow as viewBox transforms only apply to descendents, so the box shadow is a different size to the size you're expecting it to be.

Move the drop-shadow to the <g> element an it will work as you expect it to.
