JerryofWV 0 Posted May 1, 2012 I am trying to figure a way to "fill in" the attached file so I can cut an outline of it a little larger than it is. I will cut the outline out of one color and the file out of another color so I can layer them. Can someone explain to me how I can do this? As you can tell I don't know very much about combining paths so that it just cut the outline. I can use SignBlazer, Inkscape or Illustrator to do it, which ever is easier. Thanks, Jerry Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

top53 53 Posted May 2, 2012 Actually it was simpler than that, I just used the expand outline tool in SB and applied a different color. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mb20music 760 Posted May 2, 2012 I have a habit of doing things the hard way. You are right, your way is much simpler http://screencast.com/t/Tc1XBnEkJ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
