Color overwritten using dipping pattern recipe

[lewi0622]

The file being read, "Demo_2_colors.svg" has two different stroke colors. After using splitdist to insert a dip svg, the first layer has it's color overwritten, and shows as black (#000000), while the second layer's color is intact. Based on the printed color and proplist info, this overwriting seems to occur at the conclusion of the first forlayer block.

vpype \ eval "dip_files=[r'Dip_locations\Circles\Dip_1.svg', r'Dip_locations\Circles\Dip_2.svg']" \ read -a stroke "Demo_2_colors.svg" \ forlayer \ eval "%print('start', _color)%" \ lmove %_lid% 1 \ splitdist 50cm \ eval "j=_i" \ forlayer \ lmove %_lid% "%_lid*2%" \ read -l "%_lid*2-1%" %dip_files[j]% \ end \ lmove all %_lid% \ eval "%print('end', _color)%" \ end \ proplist \ write "Demo_2_colors_PAINT.svg"

The output of the print statements above:
start #67d8fa
end #67d8fa
start #27ff71
end #27ff71
