When trying to export a "selection" as SVG, the whole page is exported instead of the selected part (other export filters do it properly). Note: IMHO there should be an "export" component in bugzilla
The bug is still in LibreOffice 3.4.4 (Windows/XP).
I see the bug in LO3.5Beta3 on WinXP too.

[Reproducible] with "LibreOffice Portable 3.3.0 - WIN7 Home Premium (64bit) German UI [OOO330m19 (Build:6) tag libreoffice-3.3.0.4]", too.
Back to list due to facts
Created attachment 65862 [details] Test Kit Attached you find a test kit. Steps to reproduce: 1. open "source.odg" 2. <control+a> 3. Menu 'File -> Export -> Selection -> Filetype .SVG - Name="MySVG.svg" -> <Save> > MySVG.svg" created Expected: only heating scheme visible Actual: all Page even with hidden contents visible 4. For comparison redo step 3, but export to .png > Export to PNG will respect selected area
So Inhterited from OOo, I modify OS due to AOOo bug without own tests. @Regina: Thank you for research

I can confirm the problem in Version - 4.0.3.3 (Build ID: 0eaa50a932c8f2199a615e1eb30f7ac74279539) - 3.6.6.2 (Build ID: f969faf) for XP prof / SP3 I followed the procedure as Rainer described it in Comment 6 including the png test. However in my case the png-export also resulted in the export of the entire page. There is also a discussion thread in AskLibO http://ask.libreoffice.org/en/question/18611/what-is-the-best-way-to-draw-in-libreoffice-that/?comment=18701#comment-18701
Still present in 4.0.5.2. Close to celebrate the two years anniversary of this bug ;-)
Or eight years from https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=56084
Still present in 4.1.3...
Can we raise the importance (as done), because SVG is the only vector format Writer understands that can handle transparent colors. (I don't want to use PNG to import the stuff in Writer).
Yes, this is sort of pathetic. Over two years. I just opened a similar support ticket with EazyDraw (to allow that app to export just the selected items to SVG) and it was done in 2 *days*. Sadly, EazyDraw doesn't open .ODG files.
I would be happy to send a Mozilla Firefox sweatshirt to whoever closes this bug --- we're using LibreOffice Draw to create diagrams for the new Software Carpentry teaching materials (http://software-carpentry.org), and having to export SVG, load that into Inkscape, open document properties, resize the page to fit the image, then re-save is painful and error-prone. Please mail greg [at] mozillafoundation [dot] org to claim your shirt :-)
This bug is still present in LibreOffice 4.1.6.2.
