The SVGs import in with a Default Material. Later when I learned about Materials, it will started to click. When I was new to Blender and Inkscape, I could not figure out why my Inkscape SVGs were all black… and I just did not know enough to find the right keywords to Google. You can do that by going to Object->Convert to->Mesh from Curve/Meta/Serf/Text You’ll want to convert it to a Mesh before doing anything with it.
Then I can change all the Transform coordinates to 0,0,0 to center my new SVG.I do that by going to Object->Transform->Center of Mass Sometimes resizing it takes it off the screen and the Object’s Origin is not very intuitive For that, I change the Object’s Origin to the Center of the Mass.Resize the object so you can see it better.If you look to the right in your Objects listing, you can see a new “Curve” that was not there before. It looks like nothing happened, but your SVG is there.File->Import->Scalable Vector Graphics (.svg) I figured I should document my process at pulling and prepping those files in Blender. (My breakthrough came when I started saving as a “ Plain SVG” format instead of an “Inkscape SVG” format). Despite some earlier blog posts on the matter, I have become fond of using Inkscape to make SVG files for my 3D Models.
