I am new to Xara, using DP 7. I am trying to apply a fill to a shape drawn with the Freehand and Brush Tool as done in the ice tutorial in Workbook 04. No matter what I do I can only get one color. I think the reason I can only get one color is because the drawn shape is a line. So no matter which control handle I select, the entire shape changes to the new color.

Please don't say "Read the manual." That is always an insulting answer, as even though the answer may be there, a new user may easily miss it or misunderstand it. That said, I have read the Fills section in the manual, and I didn't see my problem addressed there. I would appreciate it is someone would tell me what I am not doing correctly here. Thank you.
