After updating Cartoon Animator to version 5.1, I am experiencing crashes when importing SVG files exported from Affinity Designer 2.1.0 using the "SVG (digital - small size)" preset. The crashes occur at around 80% during the import process. This problem did not exist in Cartoon Animator 5.0.
I have attempted various troubleshooting steps, including computer restarts, software reinstallation, and creating new SVG files, but the crashes persist consistently.

Hi...

Sorry to hear you are having some problems importing SVG files.

Please check the workspace guide below to make sure you are using the optimal settings in Affinity Designer. Then please try the import process again. Thanks.

Hello.

I've already set pixels and sRGB as my default when exporting, so that's not the problem. After some experimentation, I found that removing the rasterization completely allows the file to be imported into CTA successfully. However, I noticed that when I move the character around in the project, it eventually leads to a crash.

"A file you attempted to upload is not a permitted type." I was attempting to upload the .afdesign file.
