Drawing Two Concentric Circles in Photo?


Recommended Posts

I'm using AP to restore vintage clock dials.  These dials have two outer rings that generally have to be redrawn.  I used the doughnut tool to draw them once, adjusting the radius and inner circle size.  When I started a new dial, I went to use the doughnut tool again and found that it gives me a true doughnut, covering everything between the inner and outer lines.  On the first one I used the tool for, it only gave me two concentric circles, with everything between showing through.  What did I do differently on the second dial?

It sounds as though you didn't give it a fill the first time around.

Thanks...that's what I did or didn't do.  The first time, the fill went to none somehow, without my knowing it.  I hunted around and finally found that I could fill or not fill the doughnut.  Now I know.  I'm so new to all of this, but learning every time I use AP.
