Inkscape tolerance issue?

Postby timdri1 » Mon Jul 21, 2014 7:19 am

Hello,

I am very new to inkscape. I am drawing a picture at the moment but I am having the following issue:
Image
I am using the paint bucket to fill the area, but it doesn't get filled completely. I tried setting the treshold value really high but it doesn't help.
Can someone please help me with my issue :D

Ah yes. This has been discussed here before somewhere. If I remember it uses the graphical display to perform the fill.

Solutiuons:
Zoom in close before using bucket fill.
Or: Add an outline on the bucket fill afterwards, to make it overlap.
Or: Don't use Bucket fill. Try Path - > Difference, or one of the other Path boolean operations
