Problem using the <svg> in Sigil. Kindle rendering issue?
 
I posted about this recently, but couldn't get a resolution.
I copied the code from the auto-cover that Sigil makes using the <svg>
I then changed the picture and the dimension of the box and image to match the new image rather than the cover image.
Converted to AZW3 with Calibre.
Loaded on Fire
Cover is clickable to enlarge
Other image is not clickable
Any idea why?
Are <svg> in general clickable or is there something I should know about click ability to enlarge and the code. Currently, my <svg> shows up and is constrained in size to fit (which is great), but just shakes when I try to double-click rather than enlarging.

How is this a problem with svg in Sigil? Did your new svg image NOT display properly in Sigil? If so, please provide an example ebook and I'll look into it.

Otherwise, please take your issue to either a device specific forum or calibre which you post processed with.

Like Kevin said, this doesn't really sound like a Sigil question. I would post it in calibre's "Conversion" subforum. Questions concerning epub to <target format> are almost always better asked in forums or support areas of the program performing the conversion. They'll always know better what sort of hoop-jumping you may have to do with the source (epub) to obtain the desired result in the final target format.

This is not a Sigil issue.
This may be a user SVG coding error (Sigil does not provide SVG tools for other than making a cover)

Moved to the Kindle Formats section. Some Kindle expert might know if this is a related to a Kindle hardware/software rending issue.
