Since Google Chrome v61 on OS X we are not able to display a foreignObject in a SVG.

This works in other browsers as expected but not in Chrome >= v61.

This simple input field is just not visible:

Screenshot of the Chrome v62 rendering:

I can enter things in it and it is submitted on enter - so it is there, but not shown.

Here is a screenshot from the same page on firefox - input field visible as expected:

Any idea?

Thanks and regards,

Martin

You can search crbug.com for an existing issue and star it. If you cannot find one, file a new issue using the "New issue" link on the same page.

Please, do not add a "+1" or "Me too" or "Confirmed" (or similar) comment. It just wastes the time of Chrome engineers and sends unnecessary e-mails to all of the people who starred the issue.

You can reply with a link to the found or created issue and might get triaged (and fixed) faster.

Thank you.

Thanks for your information.

There is already a bug report regarding SVG foreignObject and DIVs.

But since this bug report was not reproducible - and I am not able to build a standalone site that shows this issue (too much JS involved) - I will just workaround that issue and add a separate input field to the DOM and give it a fixed position.

The scaling will not work that way, but better than not seeing the input field at all.
