Hi Rodrigo,

I'm sorry to hear you've had an issue importing vectors into XD. I would like to know a few more details in order to investigate about it.

• Have you tried the same in the latest version of XD 27?
• Is it happening with all the vector shapes or with a specific one?
• Is it happening with all the files or with a specific file?

I would also suggest checking this article: https://helpx.adobe.com/in/xd/help/working-with-external-assets.html#illustrator on how to bring assets into XD and let us know if that helps.

I will try my best to help you.

Thanks,

Harshika

Hi Harshika,

thanks for your answer.

I'm using the version 27.1.12.4 of XD.

It's happening just with this specific shape and file.

I solve the problem redesigning the shape. 

Thanks,

Rodrigo.

That shape, astroid, can be created precisely in Illustrator applying the Pucker & Bloat... filter on a circle. But if you do that, XD for some reason interprets it as circle, even after you expand it (so that it's no longer a circle with filter applied). If, however, you manipulate the path ever so slightly (so that it's not perfect astroid any longer) XD imports as is (not as a circle but as an astroid). This is a weird bug, to do with the vector maths XD is using. Can you report this to your dev, @Harshika?
