awakenedbyowls Posted November 10, 2022 Share Posted November 10, 2022 Sorry I don't know the correct terminology here so I'll add a picture. I noticed on D2 for Windows there is an extra icon on the bottom left for toggling between stroke and fill mode, alongside the one at the top right. I just wondered - what purpose does this serve?

It's the same as the similar toggle in the Color panel that has always been there.

awakenedbyowls Posted November 10, 2022 Author Share Posted November 10, 2022 I'm genuinely interested to know what the purpose of being able to toggle between stroke and fill from the left side bar is? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
