    Re: Combine / Slice stopped working

    Re: Combine / Slice stopped working

    Thanks, Jens! The single flat form, with the four tails, is exactly what I was trying to achive. I didn't actually use Bitmap Trace, I just used an imported picture (JPG) of my logo in a background...

    Re: Combine / Slice stopped working

    Re: Scan and fill
