Select all your SVG layers again and set your preferred size for width or height (not both). For example, if you are making a series of letters to make a word you would want them all to be the same height, say 8”, and so you would set the height of each cut file letter and not the width.

Make sure you have aspect ration checked with a tick and click to resize. Click ok in the little pop up box that appears on your Canvas Work Space screen.
