Lines to Shapes

[Acorn]

Select all your Lines (1px Width) but then use the Contour Tool set at 8px Outer and finally Intersect All Shapes, removing the unwanted bits.

I did, but I made it into an editable shape, not just a standard shape.

Thanx for your reply!

just to recap

you cannot make a line into an editable shape unless you make it into a shape first.. as has been pointed out

Indeedy. Just tried it and found out that little tidbit. I didn't realize the convert to editable shape only worked on preexisting shapes.

Been using this package since 1997 and I'm still learning new things about it.

That's a thought that didn't occur to me. Cool, I'll give that a try, too.

Thanx!
