Import layers of an svg?

Question

Let's say I create an icon in illustrator, and it has multiple layers to it, like an outline, a main body and some detail cut marks. Well, how can I import this svg into blender in a way that blender will separate these 3 different groups of svg info?

HI Sid,

Try File > Import > Scalable Vector Graphics (.svg).

(I have never used Illustrator, or even Imported an SVG, but this should work, I think).

Yeah I don't think Blender recognizes the layers, you're going to have to do some manual work as far as I'm concerned. Or as the internet shorts it out, AFAImC.
