    Hi there! Excelent tutorial. Wondering if I could open this SVG saved files on my Mac illustrator. I know I can only operate the app through my iPhone, but I’d love to do some editing on the file through my laptop illustrator. Read you could download the files through iTunes before... not anymore with the updates. Can I download this svg files somehow in my computer or no way!?

    Sure. At about the 3 minute mark in the video you will see the process. I use DropBox, but notice that AdobeCC is also an option. There also seems to be an option to save as .ai so should be no problem getting these files to Adobe Illustrator.

    Can you choose draw instead of cut? Thank you. I am not creative, but I would love to draw with my cricut maker. I loved your boot drawing video?

    You can choose draw, but would only get an outline, not a nice sketched look like in the boot video. Another option is to use a line fill but for that you need 3rd party software like Inkscape.

    Thank you so much for this tutorial! An issue I have come across is when saving as a PNG to my camera roll and then uploading to DS - even though I have hidden the background (made transparent) it does not upload to DS as transparent (both on ipad and iphone.) Any idea what I’m doing wrong? I *think* I have followed the video correctly... thank you : )

    How would I delete the background once I transfer to design space?

  • @cleversomeday

    @cleversomeday

    6 жыл бұрын

    Its best to delete the background before you transfer to design space (imaengine has an eraser tool) or on the way in with the eraser tool in DS. Once its in DS you could slice or hide contour but that's much harder.

  • @rosemason2071
    @rosemason20716 жыл бұрын

    When I save my svg to Dropbox or iZip and open it with Design Space I get a box around it and lines in the svg file. They don’t show in my saved svg file but they come up in my DS. I have tried all day literally to get it to not do this.

  • @cleversomeday

    @cleversomeday

    6 жыл бұрын

    hmmm. I've not had this happen, but the box could be the extra layer if you didn't remove it so check the layers panel for that. Extra lines would be a bigger issue. I have had it happen from other SVGs on my computer and don't know a fix. Your best bet would be to just use the transparent PNG instead. (as I show in the video anyway since SVGs couldn't be uploaded to the DS app yet)

  • @cleversomeday

    @cleversomeday

    6 жыл бұрын

    If the lines are the outlines of the pieces then that is normal as DS always outlines cuttable shapes. The only way to get rid of them is to temporarily flatten or set to print. You are still probably going to have to take it into Inkscape or AI so you can combine color layers.

  • @rosemason2071

    CleverSomeday they are not. One is a box around the entire design. The others are broken lines around the outline of the design. A centimeter or two outside. Wish I could upload a picture so you can see it.
