Objects imported from SVG have their gradients turned upside down
Illustrator 24.2 on Windows 10 PC.
Open the attached SVG file. Select the rectangle with the gradient. Now select the Rectangle tool and create another rectangle which will inherit the look of the first rectangle. Now we have two rectangles on the canvas which look the same.
Yet their appearance in the Appearance panel is different — the imported object has the red color on the bottom while the newly created object has the red color on the top.
It's not simply a cosmetic issue — if you drag and drop the appearance of the imported rectangle to another object, it will have its gradient turned upside down. I.e. it won't look the same as the object from which the appearance was copied.
