This is an import bug in Scribus, but please understand SVG is a very complex specifcation and *no* application supports every feature. At least in this case, you have provided a very good workaround. The reason I recommended Inkscape, is they are trying very hard to adhere to the SVG specs and export from Inkscape > Scribus is getting better by the day. <snip> Cheers, Peter
