Hello, when i use pencil tool it automatically has no stroke. It's transparent.

Correct answer Mr Kirotomo

creative explorer, it's a standart behavior on Pencil tool - then Fille new pencil strokes in OFF.

If you turn off this option and start draw, the Illy need to set fill to none - otherwise it fill the foreground color. Best regards, Kioto Mr.

@TOLGA38021460on60 that's weird. After selecting the pencil tool, for me, it's a black stroke with 100% opacity on. You could just stroke it yourself? If you also hit 'd' n your keyboard, it would automatically color the fill with white and stroke to black...but once you start to draw with the pencil tool, the white fill will change to none!

And when you apply a stroke, does it then keep that for the next strokes?

In the menu of the Appearance panel, is "New art has basic appearance" turned on?

Hello @TOLGA38021460on60,

We understand that technical issues can be frustrating. I hope Monika's suggestions helped resolve the problem. If not, kindly share more details, like the exact version of the OS/Illustrator and a screen recording of the problem (https://adobe.ly/3YhxbEb) so we can investigate this further.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Thanks,

Anubhav
