How to Resolve SVG Project Not Supported on Cricut
Cricut is debatably one of the leading brands of cutting machines and it has been a Godsent gift for me as a crafter. But I’m not gonna lie, it can be pretty frustrating when the?Project Not Supported notification pops up.
Have you ever received this notification when you’re using your Cricut? I’ve experienced this a few times myself and sometimes I can’t even seem to pinpoint what went wrong let alone how to fix it.
With the recent updates, however, Cricut Design Space will automatically tell you what is wrong with your design that caused it to not work. And?there are actually multiple reasons why you might be receiving this Project Not Supported notification.?From issues with your design, your file format type, to problems with file size and tools, we are going to go through all things you have to know to avoid getting this notice again!
Pattern Fills Project Not Supported
Since SVG files save data of your design in codes of letters and numbers instead of pixels,?they can’t store the pattern fills?you might have in your design.?
Pattern fills are fills on a design that contains?anything other than flat colors. So things like?color gradients, texture, patterns, etc. are all considered pattern fills. Pattern filled SVG is not supported by the Cricut Design Space application.

How to solve it:
If you can,?consider removing the patterns?you have on your SVG. However, if you can’t remove the pattern then you need to?export your file to a JPG or PNG?format.
You will need to?print your design on a regular inkjet printer.?After that, you can continue and use your Cricut Machine with the?Print Then Cut?setting.
Clipping Paths Not Supported
Clipping paths are shapes that are formed by a layer of multiple shapes?layered together and clipping or masking the other shape. So instead of shapes layering on top of each other, they overlap to make a new shape. This type of shape in SVG is not supported by Cricut.
