How to join vectors which won't join

as requested on support… Given a file: [image] where the outline will not join, it can be seen that the problem is the closed geometry which makes up part of the outline: [image] [image] [image] Selecting and going into Node Edit mode: [image] we can see that it would be rather awkward to edit this, since it is a polyline, rather than a curve, so re-creation is the better option (we will show how to edit such a closed curve after we have one so as to fully “close the loop”). There…

Closing and joining magenta lines

as requested on support… Given regions which are not closed and which one wishes to be closed: [image] There are several different ways to close the regions, depending on the desired effect. One approach is to select the geometries which make up to edges which one wishes to add to the open geometry: [image] copy then, then with the cursor outside the drawing area, paste them in place: [image] Then, draw in geometry which defines the portions of these geometries which need to be added …

Closing open geometry and fixing closed geometry
