SVG download from pattern.monster just give a black square

[jawa500]

I tried saving patterns from Pattern.monster as SVGs and inserting into Powerpoint and Canva but I just get a black square. Why is this?

Same here. What is going on ?

Why is the colour white displayed as black, on the pattern maker preview window?
Is it the website, or something to do with my computer settings. This has happened twice in the past month.

Not sure why I was CC’d into this. I contacted a while ago questioning why I could not get a full pattern repeat.

This is a simple fix, open the SVG file with your text editor of choice and change the color value of the <path> element's fill="" attribute.

As it stands, they aren't exactly the same black and I expect (though don't have to verify) this would be possible to deduce on higher quality monitors but the black square's path and background are just set to hsla(... values differing by 10% in the lightness part of that standard. You could replace the hsla color with a hex color or whatever floats your boat just as easily.
