Skids Posted April 21, 2023 Posted April 21, 2023 Hi, I hope that someone will be able to offer some advice on how I might fill an irregular shape with a striped fill. I have attached a screen shot of my starting point along with the Affinity file. I wish to add two further parallel stripes making three in total. Each stripe should end at the boundary of the yellow shape and the distance between them should be equal. I have tried to have the two object snap together but have failed despite playing with the snap settings. I wonder if it is possible to have the yellow box act as a constraining frame or mask but again I can't see how to achieve my aim. best wishes S BlackYellowStripedFill.afdesign Quote
