(I'm running on FreeBSD, but that was not an option in the selection for Operating System)

When importing a SVG file in version 3.7.5, it qcad turns polylines into polygons.

I'm attaching a trivial .SVG file showing this, it should *not* render as a rectangle,
but as a "rectangular upper case C".

And many thanks for making good quality CAD software available to the FOSS community.

Tested & works, thanks!

One detail you can add to the wishlist:

SVG's can provide width/height properties:

  <svg version="1.1"
      viewBox="0.0 0.0 1542.8 1196.0"
      width="6in" height="4.5in"
      xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">

When they are present, it would be nice if the resolution dialogbox made use of them, but I can do the math myself so it's not important.
