Working with simple shapes creates simple SVG files, but the moment I add an outline the path...  Well, haha, it becomes a nightmare.  

 

TWO objects are exported: the solid fill object, and the outline object (why?).  The fill object is fine, but the outline has gone from 10 control points to ~2200.

Best I can figure AD is doing this because it doesn't do outlines the same way SVG does, but since SVG supports strokes of different widths and miter types, I don't know what, specifically, the issue is.

 

If I export a solid object, it works as expected, same number of points in AD and Inkscape.    Add an outline, and hahaha ouch.

 

I'd love to know what's up with this and whether AD just can't do outlines->SVG without becoming unwieldy.

Hiya NFG,

 

This is a known issue that is already with the developers. The problem occurs when you use Mitre Joins and export to SVG. However we are looking to improve it in the future!

 

Thanks!

Sorry, maybe double post... but look at my problem here:

I downloaded the beta, but this problem still exists for the strokes, you can try with my example in the post above.

By the way: I'm on Mac ;)
