Svg picture looks all joined, but the preview shows different

Hello,
Purchased a file on etsy, loaded the svg file into lightburn, put this picture on a separate layer.
Go to preview and there are two areas that are not closed (cut) that they need to be.

Tried custom outline, drawing an outline with the pencil tool, even imported it into inkscape and tried to use the path/union tool.

Re-downloaded it from the vendor, made sure it was unlocked before using it.

Had another issue like this and I was able to convert to a bitmap, then trace, re-save as an svg.

This file is too complex because the cuts are for a flexible band.

Any/all advice would be great.

The bottom, right of both of these should be squared off like the other tabs.

NODE EDIT to manually connect the open spots.

It certainly shouldn’t be necessary for a purchased svg file. The only way to help you is to have the file itself for inspection.
If you don’t want to post it here, consider sending it as a PM.

Here is the actual file.

I un-grouped, then put the 3mm into separate layers into lightburn, fixed one of the other files by converting to a bmp, trace and export. But the file that bends is quite tough to trace accurately.

Thanks much!

When I import the 1st file (SVG) there are no shapes that are not closed (besides the ones that should be).
So either I have misunderstood the task/problem or the file appears correctly here for me.
Image is with “select open shapes”

Dang,
You have it right, for some reason my import had those spaces!

I just did the bitmap / trace option and just played around until I got it close, tested and it works fine.

No I am going to have to test this import again.
Did you drag n drop or import?
I’m using LB ver. 2.0.04

Appreciate you looking into this!!!

Thanks,

So now I am wondering why when importing the svg file it missed those couple of burning closures.

The mystery continues.

I saved your SVG on my computer and imported the same SVG into an empty project. (I didn’t use drag and drop).
It’s great if it works for you now too.
