    Hi, ALL,

    For some reason this is how InkScape looks like when I try to make a rectangle.

     

    Could someone please help?

     

    Thank you.

    I'd try with no stroke and a dark fill. 

    I also note that the object is in the "root" not a layer... that's not conventional. 

    Feel free to share the example inkscape file.

    @Tyler Durden,

     

    How do I do that?

    Can you give step-by-step?

     

    My laptop is acting weird and its possible that there was something that happened while InkScape was opened....

     

    Thank yuo.

    I suggest starting with the tutorials in Inkscape's Help menu. They are fast and easy, but explain some important basics.
