 I found a problem in svg export (Veusz 1.5, Win XP). I could see some
 changes in svn trunk concerning svg export, but didn't test whether those
 fix this problem or relate to it.

Thanks for the bug report. The problem is that Qt SVG export does not 
support any form of clipping.

I've completely reimplemented the SVG export using my own code as it looks 
like Nokia aren't going to fix this soon. I think they're more interested in 
the SVG subset for mobile devices.

My code supports clipping. The other difference is that it exports text as 
curves to get WYSIWYG. This makes the plots more accurate but makes text 
harder to edit. It also requires PyQt 4.6 (falling back to the Qt SVG for 
older versions).

I'm trying to decide whether to release a 1.6 soon or add more features. 

Maybe an earlier release would be good as I've added some other useful 
features such as defining custom functions.

ok

This SVG matter isn't anything urgent for me. I couldn't find any 
reference to it so thought to report it. Text transformed to curves 
sounds in some sense good to me. I had some issues on that matter. But I 
don't know was it related just to Inkscape.

I won't be plotting much in the near future, but new features sound 
always good :).

Best regards,
Janne
