Importing icons from Sketch often does not work

[Laurent Le Graverend]

Just purchased an unlimited plan for IconMoon.

I face difficulties importing SVG icons exported by Sketch.
Sometimes it does work but most of the time, I see an empty icon when importing SVG files from Sketch into IconMoon.

Sometimes re-importing into photoshop / illustrator and re exporting will fix this issue but most of the time not.

What is wrong with these export and how can I fix it?

Below an example with a Search icon.

This can be caused by different reasons. But in the case of the SVG above, since IcoMoon doesn't currently support strokes, you need to convert them to fills. In Adobe Illustrator, you can do this conversion via Object > Expand. Sketch might have a similar option.

Thanks for your quick reply about the stroke issue, helpful.

In Sketch: Layer > Paths > Vectorize Stroke

Did the job.
