opposite of outline to path (ctrl alt C) ?

Postby v1nce_2009 » Wed Mar 03, 2010 8:22 am

Hi

I want to do the "opposite" of outline to path.

I got a bitmap that I turned into a vector (Path/vectorize) using outline detection. Now I got a (closed) shape with an hole in it.

I know I can select and remove innermost nodes but there must be a faster way to do it.

Thank you

Try the break apart command, this might be what you are trying to get to.
Your mind is what you think it is.

Hi,

How do I get that ? (which shortcut or menu ?)
Sorry but I got a french version and I don't see anything close of "break apart"

thank you.

It's in the Path menu, right after Combine. Or Shift + Ctrl+ K.
