Close Gap Tool Properties
The paint tool requires the area you attempt to fill to be closed in order to know exactly what area of your artwork must be filled. However, it is common for artists to accidentally leave small gaps in their artwork.
The Close Gap tool allows you to quickly close small gaps in a shape by creating an invisible stroke connecting two extremities of the gap. You can then fill the area using the Paint tool, as this invisible stroke will be taken in account to determine the outline of the shape to fill.
- In the Tools toolbar, select the Close Gap tool.
The tool's properties are displayed in the Tool Properties view.

The Close Gap tool creates an invisible drawing stroke to close the shape. Enabling this option will merge the stroke into the artwork instead of adding the stroke on top of it. NOTE The area you close with the Close Gap tool will be fillable regardless of whether or not this option is enabled.
