So, the fox should be as on the image on the left. In order to achieve that, I roughly designed some lines outside the cut shape and connected them to the “inner part” of the fox, so that the fill would go further than the cut line.
I have a cut line (Blue) and a fill line (black). As far as I can tell, the black shape is closed (it is not selected using “Edit > Select open shapes set to fill”), I checked the nodes at the connection points, and they “move together”, so…
Yet the preview feature tells me that I have 2 open shapes, and that these are removed for the preview.
Is it possible to have open shapes set to fill not detected by the "select open shapes tool?
How is it possible to have 2 fill open shapes when I only have one shape assigned to the fill layer in my design? Everything else is set to Blue (external cut - line) or red (internal cut - line)
Well, solved it… The tree (line- cut) external shape was open on the bottom. I’m not sure why this messed with the fill on a different layer, but it now previews correctly. Thanks for taking the time to answer, if you have an explanation for the reason, I’m all ears
The blue line is interrupted there on the file I sent you:
Odd — I see this break in your file, but I do not receive an open shapes warning when I go to preview it. In any case, I’m glad you were able to work out the issue.
