awakenedbyowls Posted February 16, 2023 Posted February 16, 2023 Just trying to add two layers. Why is it removing the eyes? ie. the holes which are supposed to represent eyes - why is it removing them? I've barely done 5 minutes work so far getting back in to it and here I am trying to figure out how to resolve bugs! Quote
awakenedbyowls Posted February 16, 2023 Author Posted February 16, 2023 Tried it on a simple object - the eyes remained Quote
awakenedbyowls Posted February 16, 2023 Author Posted February 16, 2023 I think I recall hearing people complaining about the Boolean functions not working They don't seem to be working very well for me today, as now I can't get two layers to add (just deletes one of the layers) Unless I'm doing something wrong? If not and this is a bug then that really is a steaming pile of garbage and forces me to question what I just invested £89.99 in going forward It looks like Add and Subtract buttons are the wrong way wrong? To get these two objects to add anyway - not really sure what's going on or feel very confident using this software going forward it doesn't seem very well built or tested for bugs Quote
GarryP Posted February 16, 2023 Posted February 16, 2023 Have you tried changing the Fill Mode of one or more layers via the Layer menu before performing the boolean function? Different parts of the shapes can be drawn ‘different ways round’ and that can affect the result – there’s something in the Help about this. You may need to change the order in which the nodes are drawn in some curves to get what you want. Quote
awakenedbyowls Posted February 16, 2023 Author Posted February 16, 2023 What is Fill Mode? I never use that Quote
