Hi Ive tried everything. This is a line drawing I was working on the tail. When I moved to the head I saw it had filled in areas when it was off screen. I can not seem to get it back to lines. Thank

With the path selected - click on the big red X at the bottom left of the Inscape screen.

This removes the line fill. The Fill: just below the X in the status bar should now say None.

Mouse click selects for fill (small solid cicle), Shift mouse click for Stroke (large open circle)

Oh, that easy, thanks.
