How to cut svg from psd layout? Through Export as... you can choose the format to save svg, but in fact it saves a picture that deteriorates when scaled.

I read that it is possible through File > Extract Assets , but I do not have such a menu (version CC 2015.1.1)

This is the worst practice, in my opinion, to draw in a raster editor, then save via a plugin in vector format .

  • The fact is that Photoshop does not precisely style the elements.
  • Sometimes they overlap and contradict themselves.

  • Images often go beyond the boundaries of the document and therefore are cropped in the SVG.

  • The SVG file looks monstrous.

  • The coder then needs to edit this file manually and very often, for a number of reasons, he cannot do it. In the topics on our site more than once raised the question of the inadmissibility of the use of Photoshop for the manufacture of vector images:

In what form should the designer transmit the image maker SVG

Is it possible to do the whole site on svg?

Conclusion one, - vector images should be drawn in the vector editor!

If there is a lack of desire to master a vector editor, then all the more there is not enough strength and desire to edit the svg files made in the raster editor.

    If an object (vector) was created in Adobe Illustrator, and then transferred to a PSD layout, then when working in Photoshop, you can open this object in Illustrator simply by double clicking on the object in the window with layers.
