Insert SVG From Illustrator Issues

Anonymous
Not applicable

Hello,

 

I'm trying to insert simple files drawn in illustrator in Fusion and extrude them. I run into a few problems.

 

My file needs to be scaled up 1.3333 too be to scale of what was drawn in illustrator. Not a big deal, but I'm sure there's a way to fix it. I see the export settings are set to mm = mm.

 

When I extrude my drawing I have small walls along the edge of the drawing that are created and I can't seem to prevent them or get rid of them. I've attached a screenshot and the SVG file for reference. The drawing is a simple shape (pair of goggles) I'd like to extrude them to 6mm and have the center stepped down to 5mm. I'm sure there is a better way to do this. I work with others who draw in illustrator, so I would ideally have this importing work flow.

 

 

Thanks for the help!

this is what is in the svg file.  not good to have overlapping lines. Have your AI people try non overlapping closed sections

Hey Timm!

 

Thanks a lot for the response! How should that be drawn? I've tried as just lines where the step down is and they can't seem to be extruded once in Fusion.

 

Sorry - just saw your part about not having overlapping lines. I'll pass it on!

 

Thanks again

@Anonymous Here is your file fixed is there any reasion you just did not do this in fusion (just out of interest), If you paid for it ask for a refund.

 

There have been some issues with files from illustrator not coming in on size most people have to do a scale in fusion or get it fixed useing another program first then bring it into fusion.
