SVG Import Error

Hello everyone.  I'm trying to import a SVG and I'm getting an error:

 

Error: bad lexical cast: source type value could not be interpreted as target
Error: The selected SVG file contains no information or some unsupported information. The Fusion sketch will not include unsupported geometry.

 

The file was created in Inkscape but it opens fine in a myriad of other programs.  Plus I've used this file before with other programs like Cambam.  Additionally, I've imported other SVGs into this particular fusion file already.  This is the last one to complete the design.

 

I've attached the file as a reference - any suggestions?

 

-Tom

Hi @cyberreefguru

 

Thank you for posting, and I'm sorry you are experiencing this issue. Woman Sad

Could you confirm that your geometry has included "Group" command? it would cause this error in Fusion 360 when inserted. 

Would you mind trying after "Ungroup" geometry in Inkscape and insert the SVG file again?  

If it doesn't work, could you please send me the original SVG file? my email address is "ahreum ryu@autodesk.com" 

 

I look forward to your reply

Have a great weekend! Heart

 

Many thanks, 

Ahreum.
