Hi there,

is it possible to freeze/bake transformations in inkscape?

If i export a svg that contains elements that where moved, rotated and scaled, i get the original coordinates plus a transform tag containing matrix or translation information.

Is it possible to tell inkscape to handle objects, as if they were drawn that way, so i get in the <path d=".... tag the actual coordinates where they are after all transformations?

in inkscape preferences>transforms there is an option to store transforms preserved or optimized. Make sure you have optimized selected.

Even with this set you will retain matrix transformations if the object is part of a group that was transformed. If you ungroup, regular paths will lose the transform but special objects will still have the transform; you must convert these to paths, and move them in some way and back to lose the transform.

thank you
