      Could we add an option for SVG export to include a one-click “embed raster preview” option? I am exporting my art as svg files for universal use amongst my applications, but when I import them into my Eagle curation app, they do not have a thumbnail.

        UPDATE: The issue I was having was the svg exported from VS and then imported into my Eagle curation app was not always showing a thumbnail. some did and some did not.
        I realized one issue was that the svg would sometimes be placed above the canvas.

        Consulting Chat GPT, it encouraged me to try adding a "viewbox" - and this solved the issue - but is currently an extra step

            @VectorStyler thank you! I had written to Eagle as well and I forwarded you my initial email and their response in case it helps us figure out what causes the issues in VS export of the SVG files
