Re: Trace from Vector outline

I started with a file that was nothing but paths and I adjusted the stroke width and stretched moved things around to get the shape the way I wanted it. This file is that result, and the starting point of the part I didn't know how to do. Transistor.svg After the union, stroke style, I'm left with a...
