Choropleth SVG image character encoding

[a1bg503461]

When uploading an SVG image to Splunk Dashboard Studio the characters for German umlauts are not displaying correct

svg file in browser :

svg within the dashboard:

Can we enclude the UTF-8 Encoding within the source code ?

<svg version="2.0" encoding="utf-8" width="300" height="200" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"> <rect width="100%" height="100%" fill="red" /> <circle cx="150" cy="100" r="80" fill="green" /> <text x="150" y="125" font-size="60" text-anchor="middle" fill="white"> vowels a, o and u to make ä, ö, and ü. schön (beautiful) and Vögel (birds, plural form) </text> </svg>

{ "type": "splunk.choropleth.svg", "options": { "svg": "splunk-enterprise-kvstore://67d185960ede0c052b05390c" }, "context": {}, "containerOptions": {}, "showProgressBar": false, "showLastUpdated": false }

After consulting with team we are currently unavailable to upgrade version and need to stay on version 9.3.2.

Is there any workaround for the German Umlauts to display on older version 9.3.2..

maybe some option we can add in the source code?

We are currently  using Splunk Enterprise Version: 9.3.2, not latest 
I am testing with other svgs  font families in the xml and such but the result is the same :

I will communicate with the team for upgrade request if you are certain this feature was hotfixed.

Hi @a1bg503461 

I will see if I can try a lower version to test on - In the meantime, what happens if you use something like https://www.svgviewer.dev/svg-to-data-uri to capture the base64 url string for the image, then paste that into the Dashboard Image link

This is what I see 

Please let me know how you get on and consider adding karma to this or any other answer if it has helped.

Hi @a1bg503461 

Please can you confirm which version of Splunk you are seeing the issue with? Are you simply uploading the SVG into an image in Dashboard Studio? 

When I use the SVG you posted as a file in a dashboard it displays correctly for me (on 9.4.1)

Please let me know how you get on and consider adding karma to this or any other answer if it has helped.
