“Fill” making shapes as”Lines”

Hey all, I am training a new employee on my Light Burn software, and he’s noticed his settings are set to Fill but the shapes are showing up as Lines. At first I thought he had two shapes over lapping but he says when he does that, they appear as solid shapes. I’m at a loss as to what do. Thanks

Post photos and the file in question. We have a hard time seeing in our imagination what you are seeing with your eyes.

Thanks I’m having him try that we’ll see what he says

How do I add a photo? :joy:

@LiquidSchwartz, you can drag and drop directly into the post editor or click the ‘Upload’ button and follow the prompts. :slight_smile:

Look for this button:

From ‘Window’ what view style are you using?

LightBurn renders everything as wire outlines by default, as that is the way the software is intended to be used. The “correct” way to verify the work looks as expected is to use the preview.

You can enable filled rendering in the Window menu as Jess notes above, however it makes a number of things more difficult, including node editing, selection of inner shapes, and a few other things.

0.9.24? I left work so I can’t look it up… but I can check it tomorrow. I’m working a little OT tomorrow

Easy method to upload screen shots:

SHIFT+WIN+S

Drag a box around what you want to copy, it gets put on the system clipboard

Come into the forum and press CTRL+V to paste that clipboard image to the thread.
