Import SVG file To grasshopper with data

if I open an SVG file (in another app) and it shows several things, like this:

but when I open the very same file in Rhino you see many less things, like this:

but I don’t see it in Rhino:

well… it’s the Rhino Object name of that curve :slight_smile:

so you’ll need to dig on both Object Names and Group Names if you want to find exactly the same stuff (also because the same object can be part of several different groups)

here there’s a C# script that tells you the group names:

I tried it here and it works perfectly :slight_smile:
