There is a bug in the .svg export at least when imported to shaper origin. When you import into Shaper Origin some of lines are not connected leaving open paths even though they are connected (yes “join segments” is selected). When will a fix be deployed?

Hi, We would be happy to take a closer look to see what can be behind the issue. Can you share your workspace here on the forum or with me via alexander.pavlov@shapr3d.com ?

I have had a similar issue when importing into sheetcam. I only need the 2d sketch to make my cuts btw. How I fixed it is by extruding the sketch into a body, delete the original sketch, then project one side of the body to the whichever axis you are working on. It will give you your solid closed li…

Thanks for the tip, that was my next step to try. Just got totally frustrated and wasted so much time trying to export a simple shape I had to walk away from it…

I have just made a habit of extruding and projecting each sketch, then deleting or hiding the original and the body. No troubles since, even with complex shapes. I have no doubt they will soon fix this export issue and the extra steps won’t be needed. The mirror bug can be worked around as well by…

Combine, not sure what function that is. Can you just extrude and export as .svg?

Also I don’t get it, if you project the body are we not just making a copy of the same lines with the same connection points which are randomly not connected in the exported .svg?

I meant to say union, instead of combine. I think program if failing to connect all lines in the sketch when exporting to .svg, but somehow the projected line is read as a single line when exported. I imagine it is just a bug that will be fixed soon.

I have used this method on everything I have drawn on shapr3d to cut out on the CNC plasma cutter, otherwise the lines won’t all be connected when imported into sheetcam.

I have tried multiple things with no luck, I am actually in software validation for industrial controls - I am the technical lead I am not going to validate this software, I do it 45-50hrs a week, a lot of times the designers push it back on us to do all this testing because they are lazy and think…
