davidlower8 Posted January 5, 2020 Posted January 5, 2020 Hi guys, Is there a way I can export an svg so that all strokes are converted to fills? Thanks. Quote
firstdefence Posted January 5, 2020 Posted January 5, 2020 Prior to exporting you can use Layer > Expand Stroke (main menu at the top of the affinity app) davidlower8 1 Quote iMac 27" 2019 Sequoia 15.0 (24A335), iMac 27" Affinity Designer, Photo & Publisher V1 & V2, Adobe, Inkscape, Vectorstyler, Blender, C4D, Sketchup + more...

If your SVG has many layers, it won't work selecting the parent. You have to select all the child layers of the SVG, expand stroke and then I typical merge all layers together. I hope this helps.

Can you share an SVG file that demonstrates the problem?

Alfred Posted July 3, 2020 Posted July 3, 2020 Thanks for the file. The problem is that it’s constructed as a layer comprising several nested groups, and you can’t apply the ‘Expand Stroke’ command to a group. Go to the Layers panel, expand the layer tree to expose the three ‘Curve’ layers/objects and then apply the ‘Expand Stroke’ command to those three items. sfriedberg and ONT Studios 1 1 Quote Alfred Affinity Designer/Photo/Publisher 2 for Windows • Windows 10 Home/Pro Affinity Designer/Photo/Publisher 2 for iPad • iPadOS 17.5.1 (iPad 7th gen)
