Cutout from vector

Hi!

I'm starting to use Protocase Designer, and I'm loving it. But I have a little doubt, is there any way to import a vector -an SVG, for example- as a cutout instead of a graphic, a-la Fusion 360? I have a design of a somewhat complex shape, and it would be quite tedious to replicate it using custom paths and merges :(

Thanks in advance!

Hi Alex,

Sorry about the delay in getting back to you.

We don't currently have the ability to import cutouts directly from SVGs, but we can import DXF files. If you can convert the file into DXF, there are a couple of ways to add it to your design.

Here is some more information from our Wiki on how to do that.

Hope this helps, and let us know if we can help further.

Thanks for using Designer!

Mark

Yeah, the DXF worked like a charm.

Thank you, Mark!
