Hello,

My current workflow is that I create sketches onto the surface of a 3D cuboid on Shap3rd, then export each side of the rectangle or sketch as an SVG into V Carve.

As you can see in the image they are separated into Pockets and Profiles for the lines and ‘circles’. However for most this has worked perfectly but on a couple v carve is not able to differentiate between the line and circle, meaning I can’t carve it how I want. Does anyone know what could be causing this?

A possibly related issue is that in Shap3rd, I use the arc control line tool to create these shapes. Then when I look at all the sketches on the tab, sometimes the same line is overlapped multiple times, e.g. 1 line would have 8 sketch lines contained within it, meaning when I try and delete it I have to delete 8 lines individually.

Are these 2 issues related?

Cheers!
