vectorization: combine shapes without losing the image?

[Holger]

Thank you all.

I don't really understand all the details, but I see, that cloning twice is reducing that irritating shabe...anything.

too sad, that there is no option to combien the shapes, let their borders fade away, so the surface is clean without all that zones.

Hi Holger
In response to your pm here is another with a little explanation.
I am not good at explaining procedures.
I downloade an Image of Mao
I imported it into my file and used my 'Outline' to cut the Mao image.
Now I have Mao in the shape and can apply effects to
it.JimMao.xar
