Jolly Posted November 30, 2023 Posted November 30, 2023 Can I get help with 2.3? I have exported a single stroke design and the export result has expanded the lines (SVG). I have never had this happen before only since updating to version 2.3 today. I export the strokes in order to have draw lines. Is this a bug that has been noted? First picture with yellow background shows design before export. Second picture shows the SVG file after export. I have not changed any settings and have exported with the same export preset I have been using for a couple of years. Quote
MikeTO Posted November 30, 2023 Posted November 30, 2023 I'm not able to duplicate this issue with 2.3 on macOS. Could you share a test file?

This will happen if you have (accidentally) changed the stroke from "Solid Line Style" to "Solid Pen" brush – which will optically look the same on the canvas.

Reset the pressure and that fixes it.
