This SVG was exported using Adobe Illustrator. However, In Inkscape when I save it as an "Optimized SVG", viewBox is defined, not height and width. When I save it as a plain SVG, the height and width are defined, not the viewBox.
Is there a way to have all three defined simultaneously using the Inkscape GUI?
In my testing (Win10 Inkscape 1.4) , exporting to Plain SVG will preserve all three attributes.
If you export as Optimised SVG, you need to make sure the 'Enable Viewboxing' option under the SVG Output tab is *unticked*. If it's left ticked, it will strip the width and height.
Is there a way in which we can save an SVG with viewBox, height, and width attributes together?
Can you show a text example of what you want to do ?
Thank you @inklinea
I want to have viewBox, height, and width attributes defined like this:

I'm using 1.4 on Ubuntu 22 at the moment.
I've saved the code you posted as plain svg, I get this:

I use Windows 11 Enterprise.
Is there a way I can save/export an SVG in Inkscape with all three attributes defined in the output?
Hi @redhin
In my testing (Win10 Inkscape 1.4) , exporting to Plain SVG will preserve all three attributes.
If you export as Optimised SVG, you need to make sure the 'Enable Viewboxing' option under the SVG Output tab is *unticked*. If it's left ticked, it will strip the width and height.
Hope that's of help.

Thank you, @dhawkshaw, for the tip.
I am using Inkscape 1.3.2, which might be the reason. I have raised a request with my IT team to get 1.4 installed. I will try an let you know.
