jkprg Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 Hi! I'm trying to import SVG generated by Kicad but without a luck. Am I doing something wrong or is it a bug? (Latest AD, latest Mac OS X). Thanks Regards Jaroslav Example_STM32F031K6-F_Cu.svg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkprg Posted March 1, 2020 Author Share Posted March 1, 2020 I think I've already reported this issue very long time ago. If I'm not wrong the problem was the missing circles (pads) are ellipses actually with overlaping focal points... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Sean P Posted March 4, 2020 Staff Share Posted March 4, 2020 This is indeed a known issue and is happening because those ellipses are actually path objects where both the start and end point are on the same position. Because of this they're getting ignored on import - this also seems to be the case on Illustrator as well. Inkscape does display the objects, but they're unselectable by regular methods - the only way I could select them was by using the XML Editor. I will bump the issue with development, however I would suggest also contacting Kicad and request the possibility of getting these objects out as Ellipses in the SVG instead of 0 width paths. jkprg 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
