SVG image shrink

CedricVidonne

When loading SVG images, either exported from Illustrator or R, they all shrink a create a margin/padding around it that make them way smaller than the original size. This could be ok when loading some charts in the content of the storymap itself, although not practical, it becomes a real issue with the logo in the banner that becomes super tiny. Are there any specific parameters to include when saving the SVG?

Here the SVG (top one) vs PNG example of the same logo:

After much trial and error, it seems that white space is only retained when the "responsive" check-box is ticked during Illustrator's SVG export.

There is no actual white space there, it really just depends on the application reading the SVG, in this case, Apple's Finder preview and AGSM. Unchecking the responsive box gives the result Cedric is trying to achieve when uploading. I haven't run into any responsive issues after testing this and viewing on multiple screens, so it should be an effective solution. Would love to see if there's any other alternatives.
