Treating top-level elements of imported SVG as separate layers

[berainlb (PY)]

This can be done by changing the color of the shapes. LightBurn will attempt to map the color defined in the SVG to the closest layer in LightBurn. Matching the RGB color from LightBurn precisely is your best bet.

You can get a reference for the layers between these two posts:

How to export the color palette from Lightburn into my drawing program?

For most users, the exact details of the colors used in the color palette are unimportant, but some of our users have asked about the colors used to simplify developing templates for external design software. To export, make a simple shape of each color (Grid Array can speed creation) and then export it as an SVG - all the shapes would have their colors set. This is the color table used: Layer Color Hex Layer Color Hex [Layer 00] rgb ( 0, 0, 0) #000000 [Layer 16] rgb (128, 128, 128) #…

RGB Values for T1 and T2 Layers

I found the RGB values for layers 00 thru 29, but not T1 and T2. Knowing these would be very helpful when importing a file with multiple layers from my CAD program.
