Unable to scale a group of vector objects proportionately together!

Im trying to bring in a vector logo that is made of many grouped pieces.

It comes in fine as an SVG.

Problem is, when I go to resize the group, the separate elements scale individually and not as a whole.

How can I fix this?

Can I lock their relationship to each other or does the vector art need to be prepared differently before being brought into XD?

Original:

Scaling that isnt working. (Its scaling the Group box. Not the elements inside.)

    Hi @thomasbricker,

     

    Select the SVG, and then go to the PI and turn off Responsive Resize.

     

    You should then be able to scale-resize, rather than responsively resize the SVG.

    I have the same problem and it's maddening. the resposive resize button on or off makes no difference. this problem only seems to happen when text is involved. i've tried everything. nothing works. help!

    You cannot scale text - I can see the both sides of argument, but personally I think the text should be scalable and XD behaviour should be changed ie. fixed
