Fill Color Options While closed images will default to be displayed as empty, you may fill any closed image with any desired color. Altering fill colors may be helpful to allow you to more easily view different images or image parts, see shapes and text in whichever color you may prefer to view them, or adjust images specifically with printing in mind for print & cut jobs. To apply fill colors, select your closed line image and access the Fill Color menu by clicking on the icon shown above. You may then select any of the Basic Menu color options.
