"fill" does not fill the freehand objects #66

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
@ver 2.3preAlpha when clicking on fill color does not fill the freehand
object. the epected behavior would be to fill it irrespective if it's open
or closed path

This was intentional in 2.2, see Issue 54.

When/if we get to full path editing, then you will be able to generate closed 
paths
and fill them, right now it just looks odd.

some designers do need open paths filled. they will just have a side where the
filling touches the background instead of having the stroke between. it may 
look odd,
but is one of the features of other editors (inkscape)

Hi Christian,

Ok, I agree that open paths should be allowed to be filled.  I intended that to 
be
part of true path editing (not the freehand scribbling we have now).  The 
reason I
didn't want to do that for freehand is outlined in Issue 54:

For all other shapes, you can specify a fill and a stroke but we prevent a fill 
from
being specified while doing the freehand drawing because this is not what people
expect when they click on a Pencil in a drawing program - they just want to 
scribble
a line.

Ultimately when we get true path editing to work, I would expect freehand 
drawing to
still be there, but path creating/editing to be another separate tool that can 
be
filled/stroked like the other shapes.  Does that sound fair?

yes, since the designers will have the ability to fill an open path. the simpler
paths are nicer than a scribble anyway..
