File:M1.png and File:M2.png

After reverting File:M1.png and File:M2.png to original version, I can still see versions uploaded by User:Kabu0321. Cathy Richards (talk) 21:13, 22 March 2018 (UTC)

If you mean in the file history, that’s normal. If you mean the main thumbnails, they look OK to me; have you tried clearing your browser cache?—Odysseus1479 (talk) 21:49, 22 March 2018 (UTC)

Fonts available to SVG renderer in Commons

Please see Category:Typeface Samples of Fonts available to Commons SVG engine for some samples of server side font rendering on Commons. It includes also some fallback tests (Arial, Courier New, etc.) and generic names (serif, sans-serif). I picked a few from the NOC-list, but also found additional fonts to work (Nimbus Sans L). Please look closly, some glyphs are rendered by fallback fonts!--Aeroid (talk) 11:47, 25 March 2018 (UTC)

svg file size

Hi. I have made a 4 MB svg file. It is smaller then 10 MB limit. When I click on the image ( like here but please reload the page ) I see some animations. It takes a few ( 5) seconds to open full image on my computer ( 15 GB Ram)

When I ask other people about it :

• "for me both the new and the old version do not really show an animation, but after some time of loading there is a presumably complete image. I did not complain about this earlier, because i blames it on my old hardware and slow internet connection ..."
• "I clicked on the image yesterday, but I am travelling, with a very small laptop with only 2GB RAM and when I clicked on it, the CPU went to 100% for two minutes and nothing happened."

Could you check it ? TIA --Adam majewski (talk) 15:49, 6 April 2018 (UTC)

Diagonally striped pattern on svg country map

Hello guys, I'm trying to fill countries with a diagonally striped pattern on a svg world map in this kind of style, however, just filling countries instead of regions would be fine. Colors should be able to be determined with the ability to create transparent stripes. There are instructions on how to entirely fill and circle countries, but the above feature is missing. Anyone here who could extend the instructions or comment? Would like to use this map outside of Wikipedia in case there are different rendering requirements. — Preceding unsigned comment added by MiMoHo (talk • contribs) 09:42, 11 April 2018 (UTC)
