Layered SVGs dont import properly after 1.10 update

I am able to import SVG files, but my issue is that layered SVGs no longer import with each layer separated as parts, but merged to a single solid object and there’s no way to split it back into the parts.

This has killed my normal workflow to where now I have to export each layer as a separate svg and then to properly align them in the slicer. This has easily doubled my design time for the custom signs I sell.

Just noticed this when importing my SVG. It’s marking the other layers as “invisible”, because technically they would be invisible as they are within the base shape, but that’s the point. I want to be able to take those other shapes and move them as separate layers on top of the base layer.

The developers have been made aware of the problem, but it sounds like they need to be convinced it is worth fixing. Their suggestion is to keep both old and new versions, split the svg in the old and then continue working in the new version.

Thanks for the suggestion. I’ll hop over there and put in my comments on this issue.

Ya this killed my work flow too. Really irritating. I hope it’s fixed asap.
