First of all, let me thank you all for the great library that this is. It has helped me a lot.
I’m relatively new to this library and this is my first time using it, so I am sorry in advance on anything that might have been obvious.
I have the following dot file:
digraph Workflow {
rankdir=TB;
ValidateDescription [ label=ValidateDescription, style=filled, fillcolor=lightcyan, color=black ];
SendEmail [ label=SendEmail, style=filled, fillcolor=honeydew ];
end [ label=end, style=filled, fillcolor=honeydew ];
}
I would like to export this as SVG. When I try to run the following command dot -Tsvg -Gsize=10,10\! -Gscale=1 -Eminlen=1 graph.dot -o output.svg I get the following invalid SVG:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>

It looks like dot is calculating completely wrong the positions. The weird part is if I remove the end node, everything works and two nodes are rendered:
digraph Workflow {
rankdir=TB;
ValidateDescription [ label=ValidateDescription, style=filled, fillcolor=lightcyan, color=black ];
SendEmail [ label=SendEmail, style=filled, fillcolor=honeydew ];
}
The following SVG is correctly rendered:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>

I have tried playing with several arguments but nothing seems to work. What am I doign wrong to convert this to SVG?
Thank you all for the help.
