The purpose 

As shown in the article below, group information is lost when a .sif file saved in Inkscape is opened in Synfig Studio.

However, it’s difficult to find and manipulate the necessary objects without group information. Therefore, this article introduces how to carry over group information to Synfig Studio.

Save Layer

In short, by making them layers instead of groups, layers in Synfig Studio are treated as groups.

Convert group to layer

Right-click the group you want to convert in the “Layers and Objects” tab. Then, select “Group to Layer” from the menu that appears.

If the icon changes from the left one to the right one, it’s been converted to a layer.
