Summary0003453: Direct Copying Vectors from Figma, Photoshop, and Sketch is not Supported
Description

(In the context of this ticket, "Direct Copying" refers to a simple Ctrl+C/Ctrl+V action.)

Currently, direct-copying of vectors is supported across Adobe Illustrator, Affnity Design, Affinity Photo, and Affinity Publisher.

However, Figma, Photoshop, and Sketch instead all require a similar form of selecting a "Copy SVG" option from a context menu to perform the action.

From my initial investigations, it appears as though in the case of these three applications, Vector Copy-Pasting is generally unable to 'exit' the application. For example, the following are not supported in addition to not working with Studio:

  • A copied Adobe Photoshop Vector cannot be pasted into Adobe Illustrator or Figma.
  • A copied Figma Vector cannot be pasted into Illustrator or Photoshop.

I was however not able to test Sketch due to not having a Mac, but the existence of a similar "Copy SVG Code" context menu option leads me to believe it has a similar restriction as Figma and Photoshop.

Steps To Reproduce

Repro Steps:

1) Create a vector shape using the Pen tool in Adobe Illustrator, or any of the Affinity Apps.
2) Copy it using Ctrl+C
3) Paste it into a Grid element within Studio using Ctrl+V

Observe how the vector is successfully pasted within the destination layer, inside of a Canvas.

4) Create a vector shape using the Pen tool in Figma, Photoshop, or Sketch
5) Copy it using Ctrl+C
6) Paste it into a Grid element inside of a Studio project page using Ctrl+V

Observe how nothing is pasted.

Expected Results: Vector shapes copied in a design application using basic clipboard actions are able to be processed by Studio.
