Missing export .svg in 'Plan' menu

Hello, I created a decent digitization of my building's floor plan using the free version of sw3d. I'm happy with the use of the software, as I am new at designing.

I am looking to export my basic floor plan of my building to LibreCAD. I see discussion of exporting an .svg file for this purpose, using the 'plan' pull-down menu. My running install of sw3d does not include an option to "export .svg".

Do I need to purchase the paid version of sw3d?

What am I missing?

Thank you!

The svg export feature is available in the free version too.

Maybe you are facing the same problem described in this post:

Thank you!
Yes, you were correct:)

I followed the link you provided, which describes two possible problems displaying the 'Plan' pull down menu.

In my case, it was the second problem, or 'b)' described there. It states that screen settings may prevent seeing the full 'Plan' menu pull down - it is long & was cut off by the bottom of my desktop view!

When I increased my screen resolution, I can now see the whole menu - including "Export SVG"

Much better:)
