Summary of Issue Encountered:

Starting at Pro 2.2, some of the 2525D Source SVGs are failing to import into Pro Mobile Styles. The failing SVGs seems to have empty Path elements.

Brief summary of issue encountered:

After installing Pro 2.2 and attempting to load the following SVGs from:
https://github.com/Esri/military-features-data/tree/dev/military-symbology-styles/utils-and-source-data/svg

svg\Appendices\Space\05120400.svg
svg\Appendices\Land\20120201.svg
svg\Appendices\Activities\40131202_0.svg

svg\Legacy\2525C\S-G-UUMSEJ_2.svg
svg\Legacy\2525C\S-G-UUMSEJ_3.svg

A failure is encountered:

Describe the product and version used:

Pro 2.2

Reproduction Steps and/or Where to Obtain Test Data:

Step-by-step description of how to reproduce the issue and the expected results:

1. Create or use and exiting Pro Mobile Style
2. Create a new symbol in the style
3. Click on the layer properties for the new symbols and
4. Load a Shape Marker from file using one of the files above, ex:
   https://github.com/Esri/military-features-data/tree/dev/military-symbology-styles/utils-and-source-data/svg/Appendices/Space/05120400.svg

You receive an error:

Additional information or sample data:

If you look at the failing symbols in an SVG Editor you can see that failing elements/artifacts - these are indeed empty/spurious path elements, but it would be best if Pro could just ignore these. Otherwise we should fix the source symbols to remove these paths (Note: the symbol do import fine if you remove these spurious elements).

Just to summarize this requires a fix in either:

1. Pro to ignore these elements -or-
2. The SVGs to remove these unused/bad paths

@BobBooth Please take a look at what it would take to fix the SVGs (@csmoore option 2 in the previous comment).

@lfunkhouser - If it is just the SVGs listed above, it should not be much effort to delete the empty path elements. I see that they show up in the layer lists, and can be deleted from there.

Some of these have been fixed in Pro 2.2. You will no longer see the loading error for any of the SVGs.
I believe these ones are now correct:
svg\Appendices\Space\05120400.svg
svg\Appendices\Atmospheric\45162101.svg
svg\Legacy\2525C\S-G-UCDMM-_2.svg
svg\Legacy\2525C\S-G-UUMSEJ_0.svg
svg\Legacy\2525C\S-G-UUMSEJ_1.svg
svg\Legacy\2525C\S-G-UUMSEJ_2.svg
svg\Legacy\2525C\S-G-UUMSEJ_3.svg

There are still some drawing issues that we are looking at for:
svg\Appendices\Land\20120201.svg
svg\Appendices\Activities\40131202_0.svg
svg\Appendices\Activities\40131202_1.svg
svg\Appendices\Activities\40131202_2.svg
svg\Appendices\Activities\40131202_3.svg

Removing the empty path from the SVG is a good work around however, we do want to fix the issue in Pro as well.
