But what do you want to do with it? Change the color of the dots?
If so, when you import the SVG in gimp Uncheck: the "Import Paths" because we don't need it in this case (and there are more than 11,000 paths in it which could take a while to load)
so far so good - this is no problem.
Quote:2. Once imported, in the layer's dialog (AKA layer's stack), click that icon to lock (protect) the alpha channel > To paint the dots, not the transparency.
okay - that step is doable here.
3. see what happened when i choosed a color..
Before step 3 you missed to click on that button in the layer's dialog > this button is important because it's to not fill the transparent areas > Click on it before to fill with a color
Click on the image below to see it in a bigger size, to see what icon/button I am talking about
Once that icon is selected, Only then you can drag and drop a color.
