Hi, I've created a quick hand graphic using the brush tool. Unfortunately, now that I want to add some color using the bucket tool I can't. Why is this? According to other forms its simply because I must have a gap somewhere? However, I don't see any. Perhaps my brush strokes need to be merged? Can anyone help--please?
I am quite sure you drew the hand with Object Drawing mode turned on. Not to worry. This can be rectified by 1 of 2 ways.
1. Select all and break apart (Ctrl + B) until the objects are all raw vector. Deselect and then use the bucket tool to fill.
2. Select all and go to Modify > Combine Objects > Union - this will keep them as one single unionized shape that you can now fill.
