Sketch ImportSVG not working after May 7 update

Anonymous — Mon, 16 May 2016 04:52:06 GMT

I used to use the following code to import SVG files but since the May 7 update its not working properly. Im assuming this is due to the update and how SVG files can now be easily rotated and moved. Is there a new way to import SVG files with the API? I've been trying to reference the API documentation but everytime I click on the 'Fusion 360 API Reference Link' it just expands and imediately collapses. Here's the python code that used to work

rootComp = design.rootComponent

sketches = rootComp.sketches

sketch = sketches.add(rootComp.xYConstructionPlane)

ret = sketch.importSVG(WorkingDir + '\\' + file, 0, 0, 1)

I added the ret variable to see if it returned an error but the value was true. Any help on how to achieve this after the update or even how to view the documentation would be greatly appreciated.

Running:
Windows 10 Pro

tried with

Chrome 50.0.2661.102 m

Internet Explorer 11.3

Found an alternative location to view the API Reference Documentation

http://help.autodesk.com/view/NINVFUS/ENU/?guid=GUID-3922697A-7BF1-4799-9A5B-C8539DF57051

The old one I couldnt view because it would expand then immediately collapse

Hello,

Thank you for reporting the issue to us. It looked a regression caused by SVG import enhancements. We will investigate/fix the issue in next Fusion 360 updates.

Thanks,

Marshal

I had the same issue with expand/collapse, very frustrating. Thanks for the good link.
