Text-wrap will only apply to frames -- text, image, shape, and polygon (parts of an SVG may be labelled Polygon N in Properties, but they don't behave the same). If you can get any text wrap, it will apply to the drawn elements of the SVG. As a workaround, make an empty frame the size and shape you need superimposed on the SVG, then wrap around that. Note that text wrap will happen in text frames underneath (lower levels and layers) the frame you are wrapping around. > I tried the Text Flow choices > in the Properties box without success.

Not sure why it is happening. An SVG should have something like a bounding box (even though it doesn't help with text flow) that you can resize the whole SVG with. You can also ungroup it and resize individual elements.
BTW, you might upgrade to 1.3.3.12, not that it will change any of these issues. Greg
