[solved] Fill Intersecting Lines/Paths/Objects

Postby Guest » Mon Jan 28, 2008 11:57 am

Basic Newbie Question:

Suppose you've drawn a circle and 2 lines at right angles, producing a circle with 4 quadrants. What is best way to manipulate these objects/paths so that you can fill each quadrant with a different color?

Thanks.

1. Hold Shift and click on both lines.
2. Press Ctrl+K (or use Path->Combine).
3. Hold Shift and click on the circle.
4. Press Ctrl+/ (or use Path->Division).
