Is this SVG Export "problem" fixed in latest version?

[Hache_raw (Jorge)]

Hello, I actually use Lightburn for design works even while my machine does not support it. I just design in Lightburn and then export to svg.

There’s a known “bug” in Lightroom when exporting SVGs.

“LightBurn exports all the shapes as independent, instead of merging them into a single filled path“ as stated in this comment by Oz.

So designs that looks like this in Lightburn:

Sometimes look like this in any other software, even Inkscape:

What I usually do is to open the .svg on Inkscape, select same fill colour and “exclude”. The problem is that for bigger/complex desings Inkscape just stop responding even with a powerful computer because there are thousand of shapes to calculate.

I’m currently on lightburn 1.5.06 and I’d like to know if this got fixed in latest version. If so, I would totally buy it again.

Can someone can confirm it exports to .svg as intended using this file?

If you don’t use offset fill, it works fine - here for me

OMG So this is why it only fails sometimes.

Thank you so much.

I don’t know why sometimes the same color layer it’s configured diferently in each file/session.

Nice that helps. Mark the answer as the solution so others can find it quickly.

If you depend on layers, figure out what settings you want for each layer, then hit the Make default button:

Default Layer Settings - LightBurn Documentation

If you (inadvertently) change the layer settings, then enable Load default layer settings to always reset them when you start a new design:

Load default layer settings on new or restart - Settings/Preferences - LightBurn...

I’ve fixed this so Offset Fill will work in the next release.
