Support Export of AI Multi-Size Files

When exporting AI files, a new pop-up window allows users to select single-size or multi-size export:
  • If single-size is selected, only the vector path of the current size is exported.
  • If multi-size is selected, vector paths of all sizes are exported.
  • If users modify multi-size vector paths, alignment will no longer be possible.
Operation Method: File ▶ Export AI ▶ Multiple Size Grading
Application Scenarios: Designers adding texture patterns to different size (S/M/L) patterns in AI can use the multi-size export function to obtain full-size vector files in one go, avoiding the tedious manual alignment after single-size export.
