DM1 Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 You have created a number of individual shapes that are not closed shapes. If you try to fill you will get the effect you see. Instead, select all shapes and use Edit Add (Under Geometry), this will 'join' the shapes together closing them. Then fill. If using Pencil tool you can turn on Sculpt to delete unnecessary nodes and draw to fill in any gaps to join them. Then fill. 7AC53EDF-DC67-4F77-B473-E1FE1FEE8B53.MP4 iamrahulmaurya 1 Quote M1 IPad Air 10.9/256GB lpadOS 17.1.1 Apple Pencil (2nd gen).

iamrahulmaurya Posted February 1, 2019 Author Share Posted February 1, 2019 i know about sculp in pencil its the same colouring its just do realtime. for eg. if i am making closed circle and my two lines intersecct and go outside. then i will have two fills. one inside the circle and one outside along the intersection. . i tried that but i get fuzyy color fill. is there any option i can just make lines and somehow combine it and then fill inside . just a simple thing to do. i can do it in illustrator and toonboom its so easy why its so hard in this.

Dan C Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 Hi iamrahulmaurya, Welcome to the forums As DM1 has mentioned, you have multiple Open curves which may produce undesired effects when filling, you need to select these curves and use the Add operation to combine them into 1 Closed curve (or multiple closed curves) before filling them.
