Comment 12 for bug 411568

Wow, I just spent over two hours trying to figure out why I could not batch export a group of 35 items. I finally figured out that they were all being written over the top of one another, leaving me with just the final object. This 'feature' is very frustrating! There should definitely be a way to override the export paths for all selected objects without having to save a copy of your project as plain SVG, opening that up, un-grouping all the objects, and batch exporting from there. Not everyone needs to define separate export paths for each and every object in a file, nor do most people have the necessary knowledge of how to edit an xml file. I'm very surprised that I'm only the 4th person to report that this is an isue for me, but then again, it did take me 2 hours to figure out what was going on and find this thread.
