Hi @wizwact,

With the object selected try Layer > Geometry > Fill Holes...

In addition to the advice above, it looks like you might need to ‘tidy-up’ the original curve layer before using the Contour Tool.

Sometimes, for example when the original curve has 'overlapping' nodes, the Contour Tool can look like it gets a bit ‘confused’ and creates ‘holes’ where you might not expect them. (It’s normally doing what it has been ‘told’, given the curve it can see, but it’s maybe not what we might expect.)

Try editing the original curve (not the result of using the Contour Tool) with the Node Tool and closely inspecting the areas where the Contour Tool seems to be making the ‘holes’. You will possibly find that the curve isn’t quite as simple as it first looks and needs to be ‘simplified’ so that it is a continuous curve which doesn’t ‘come back on itself’ or overlap at any point.

If you can copy the original curve layer (not the result of using the Contour Tool) to a new document and share that new document here then we can assist you in finding out what’s happening.
