Correct svg done with 7.4.7.2

Description Jabari 2023-09-17 19:50:49 UTC 
Description:
This problem occurred after 7.4.7.2 and exists in 7.5 and 7.6 series.

I have calc graphs with numerical x|y-axis data.
When I "export image" to svg, the x-axis values are moved from the x-axis and are placed in seemingly random places, in a line, within the graph. Y-axis data values, title, and legend are unaffected.

I used AppImgs of LO back to 7.2 and found exporting to svg worked fine up through 7.4.7.2.  Starting with 7.5 thru current 7.6, the problem exists.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Create in Calc 2 columns of numerical data
2.Use chart helper and create x|y-axis graph with numerical values along each axis
3.Export image to svg from the graph

Actual Results:
The data values along the x-axis are placed in a line within the graph body

Expected Results:
The x-axis data values should appear along the bottom of the x-axis


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No

Additional Info:
This occurs with line graphs, histographs, step graphs, et al I tried.

Repro on MS Windows > NEW, regression.

I'm not sure I would say the x-axis is placed at "random" places, but rather roughly centered on the exported SVG image; it is true that it is not placed at the same location as the original chart shows.
