Overview
The Reverse Fill tool is used to convert a
solid shape into an off-white color so that it may be viewed
over and above any other shapes that are of the same color
behind it, making it otherwise impossible to see, e.g. Red Text
over a Red Arrow, while at the same time retaining the objects
original color, so that when it's sent to a cut file it's
automatically separated by its original color.
(with
Reverse-Fill applied)
The added advantage of this tool, is when both shapes are
selected and their color changed, the shape within the other
that has had reversed fill applied to it, remains off-white with
the new color remembered by the program, with the other object's
color changing, which avoids unnecessary designing time where
each object has to be individually selected and modified.
