Since it’s a plugin only those familiar with the plugin would be able to give an accurate answer.
But could it be because you are using ellipses and not circles?
Hey @Stephen_Harris, could you record a demo to show the trouble?
It might happen for several reasons:
- At least one of your circles/ellipses has a different width and height. They must be equal.
- At least one of your circles/ellipses was drawn in the wrong way.
For example, you drew a rectangle with rounded corners, so it looks exactly like a circle, but the plugin identifies it as a rectangle.
Or it can be more tricky if you created a circle but then flatten it, so the plugin identifies it as a vector. How to understand it?
Each ellipse in Figma has an Arc tool. See the video explanation below.
p.s. Well, the video doesn’t work for now, trying to fix it.
