SVG files won't open in Illustrator 2026. Works in earlier versions (tested in 2024)
SVG files won't open in Illustrator 2026. I can open them in Illustrator 2024, and paste them into 2026. But opening the file in 2026 results in a totally blank artboard. Perhaps the parse is broken? Something got worse between these versions...

This form won't let me add an SVG file to my comment as an attachment. Can I email the file to you?

Here is an illustration that will open fine in Illustrator 2024, but when opened in Illustrator 2026 results in a blank screen.

@JP Flexner, can you please share several of these you can, for the team to test?

Copying the paths from 2024, and pasting into 2026 works. But opening the SVG file in 2026 results in a completely blank artboard with no paths.
