SVG with Quadradic path commands generates an SDF instead of MSDF about msdfgen HOT 3 CLOSED

MSDF only takes care of sharp corners. Your SVG has rounded corners.

One of my teammates let me know that this is probably also important info for the report: We use a skia-enabled build of msdfgen, and we use skia for SVG parsing, not the default SVG parser.

Ah! I see. So even if at the rasterized resolution the edge looks "sharp" it needs to be a literal sharp corner to trigger the MSDF behavior.

This makes sense, as in our data, it seemed that the SVGs made in vector tools seemed to work reliably, but traced raster images more often had the issue.

Thanks so much for the clarity! We now know how to clean our data set. I think it would be reasonable to close this issue, though it would certainly be cool if there were some feature that could handle this automatically.

Thank you!
