Reverse Fill

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.
