Comment 11 for bug 166730

I can reproduce the bug outside the tutorial:
1. Create a new document.
2. Draw a shape.
3. Add a linked offset.
4. With the XML editor, add a transform attribute with translate(100,100) as value to the shape and the offset.
5. Move the original shape.

The new path is now merged with the transform attribute, but the offset uses the new path as its base path, and still adds the transfom values.

Inkscape prevents this bug from happening when the shape is created with its UI by merging the original path and the translate value before creating the offset (and thus no transformation is added to the offset). But when the SVG is created manually or generated by the tutorial generator, Inkscape doesn't detect the issue.

Workaround for the tutorial: create a group with the 3 objects and apply the translation to this group instead of each object separately.
