Marinio Posted May 22, 2018 Share Posted May 22, 2018 Hi There, I'm tryin to fill a curves shape so it has a black outline and a white fill. This file though has curves and a fill already, so I'm not able to fill it any further. Changing the outline to be black by changing the fill is no problem. How should I go about doing this...?

Staff Gabe Posted May 22, 2018 Staff Share Posted May 22, 2018 Hi @Marinio, Welcome to the forums You have created an artboard from your object, and the stroke will not work on an artboard. You will have to convert it back to object by going to Layer > Convert Artboard to object. Thanks, Gabe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marinio Posted May 22, 2018 Author Share Posted May 22, 2018 I've changed it back to object but still I'm not able to fill the flower with white... Lily.afdesign Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Gabe Posted May 22, 2018 Staff Share Posted May 22, 2018 You cannot "fill" the middle of that flower because of the " closed shape". Your close shape is the outline. You will have to Divide this shape first. Select it and Divide it using the boolean tools. . The last layer in the stack should be the outline. The rest would be the inner parts. firstdefence, Marinio and TrailwayCo 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
