Hello,

is it a bug that the wide of the svg grows with the max. bounding box of an element/layer?
Should´nt it show the size of the page?
I can understand that the layer size expands, but not the size of the page.

C:\Temp>c:\programme\inkscape\inkscape.com Zeichnung-6.svg --query-all
svg2 0.70312503 50.878907 1132.8974 277.13316
layer1 0.70312503 50.878907 1132.8974 277.13316
text3336 0.70312503 50.878907 1132.8974 109.62891
tspan3338 1.6881856 50.878907 1131.9123 37.539063

Hi

Inkscape (and svg) allows you to have objects "outside" the page and the width of the total will grow when you place objects outside the page.
I would not consider this a bug but rather a nice feature, can be used to have "temporary" objects - that you don't want to display - in the file.

Ok, but how should i determine than if an object is outside the page, for resizing them?
