Hi,

I have a AI file with 36 graphichs on ONE layer, I want to separate save into 36 single SVG files.

1. choosed released to layers (build) from LAYERS WINDOWS

2. now have 36 sub-layers (as pictures)

Now, how I can save these 36 sub-layers into 36 different SVG files ?

I tried MultpleExporter Script from gibhub but it CANNOT export sub-layers.

Anyone have ideas to help me on this topic ?

Thanks

Calvin

Select the first sublayer, hold down the Shift key and click the last sublayer.

Drag all the sublayers above the toplayer and delete the empty layer.

Why do you need layers? Export for screens is not an options? https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/using/collect-assets-export-for-screens.html

Is there a method to include relative position using "export for screens"? I'm using 2018 verison of Illustrator, so I am not sure if this is inlcuded as a function for Illustrator 2021

When exporting, the image dimension is cropped/ minized to only show the asset/icon. I know this is useful and handy in other situtations and is especially true for UI/UE design.

But for someone that is lazy like me. Is it possible to export the sub-layer image with a preset dimension or retain location in artboard?
