Export SVG that Canva can edit the colors


Recommended Posts

Thanks for responding but I ddid already read all those threads before posting my question.  They indicate to me that it is NOT possible to achieve this in Designer because the export options are not the same as illustrator.  However, I asked anyway because I was hoping there was an update in the last year since those posts?

 

Can anyone elaborate any more or even just confirm that my summary is correct.

Thank you

Did I try all of what out? That thread is 5 years old so I would not be expecting to find the solution there really.  I did read it however,  I cannot test with Illustrator version as I do not have illustrator.  I did try removing the [xmlns:serif="http://www.serif.com/"] from my svg but this didn't fix it.

 

I feel like you're telling me the answer is in this thread but I do not see it. Can you be more explicit?

 

thank you again for trying to assist

It's not just that (xmlns:serif="http://www.serif.com/"), the fill color values shown there are notation wise different, the first file used a hexadecimal notation ("#4e1b44") which seemed to work, and the other one used a decimal notation ("fill:rgb(78,27,68);") which seemed not to work.

You can download both in that thread at the beginning shown SVG files (test-aff.svg & test-vctr.svg) and then try out how they behave for you here with Canva. - Further you can try to find some by Ilustrator generated SVG file for Canva and compare it's SVG contents with what Affinity generated here, in order to detect and see possible important differences then!

☛ Affinity V2.3 apps ◆ MacOS Sonoma 14.2 ◆ iPad OS 17.2
