GetXML does not output added child elements

Hi,

I’m having trouble getting back the correct XML after adding sub elements to an SvgDocument

Given the following svg in a file “Min.svg”:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="no"?>
<!DOCTYPE svg PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD SVG 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/1.1/DTD/svg11.dtd">
<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xmlns:ev="http://www.w3.org/2001/xml-events" xml:space="preserve">
  <g transform="translate(5, 5)">
    <rect width="25" height="50" />
  </g>
</svg>

and the following code:

void Main()
{
	var path = @"C:\Users\USERNAME\Desktop\Min.svg";
	var svgDoc = SvgDocument.Open(path);
	var grp = svgDoc.Children.OfType<SvgGroup>().FirstOrDefault();
	if (grp != null)
	{
		for (int i = 1; i < 3; i++)
		{
			grp.Children.Add(new SvgCircle
			{
				CenterX = 10 * i,
				CenterY = 10 * i,
				Radius = 50
			});
		}
	}
	svgDoc.GetXML().Dump();
}

This (LINQPad) sample outputs the following text (without the SvgCircle elements being displayed):

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE svg PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD SVG 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/1.1/DTD/svg11.dtd">
<svg d1p1:space="preserve" ev="http://www.w3.org/2001/xml-events" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xmlns:xml="http://www.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace" version="1.1" xmlns:d1p1="http://www.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
  <g transform="translate(5, 5)">
    <rect width="100" height="50" />
  </g>
</svg>

My main question is where are the added elements?

Other questions are why does the d1p1 alias get added and, also is it correct that the xmlns:ev="http://www.w3.org/2001/xml-events" gets picked up as a custom attribute (SvgDocument.CustomAttributes)?

Many thanks for any insight

After upgrading to version 3.3.0 from 3.2.3 I was also affected with this problem. Does this mean that after 3.3.0, whenever I add/remove svg elements from Children, the same operations must be duplicated also on Nodes? How about using .Clear and .Insert?

Regarding the operation of Children, I think that the change from 3.2.3 to 3.3.0 has not changed.

Please let me know if you would like a small project demonstrating the problem.

Please create new issue and report problem.

@H1Gdev - can you have a look please? I won’t have access to a computer for a week.
