Advice about layers imported in AS

[Steph53]

Hello to all.

I am new to anime studio, but I am a drawer for a long time on various drawing/vector softs.

I wanted to know if there is a way to import a vector file (.ai or .eps), created in several layers (example : one for legs, one for arms, one for face,...), and to get it in AnimeStudio in several layers too ?

As I always get a "one layer file" in AS : the layers have been reduced in a only one layer. And a lot of work to do because of that fact...

is there another way to get various layers inside AS in final ?

You have to save all those layers in separate EPS files.

Yes, that's what I thought. A bit sad for that...

Thanks for your help

You could try the "RT- Break apart" script after importing the eps or AI file.
It's located in "Scripts/Layer Effects" (Anime Studio Pro only).

Most AI imports create closed single shapes. This script could help.
