gergelysuto Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 Hello, I am new to designer and very excited to discover the program. Here is a question already: I try to export an svg made with a few simple shapes in order to be used in html. (I am actually following a tutorial made by someone who uses Illustrator) I would like to end up with an svg file that has a single id, not each shape it's id. I cannot seem to find the right keyword to achieve this. "Group", "compound", "group to layer" aren't the right thing here. Thank you in advance for any advice, gergely metajake 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff MEB Posted October 11, 2016 Staff Share Posted October 11, 2016 Hi gergely, Welcome to Affinity Forums You have to create a single shape from the separate shapes through destructive boolean operations (add, subtract etc). Then give it a name in the Layers panel (rename the layer to whatever you want). The layer's name will be used as the ID for the shape. To perform destructive boolean operations just select the objects you want to add, subtract etc to form the shape you need and click on the respective icon in the main toolbar (see screenshot below). metajake 1 Quote A Guide to Learning Affinity Software Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
