    Hello,

    I can not figure out why this will not fill.  I know the path is the outline but I seem to remember filling the inside of the shape too, not just the outline.  But it is not working for me right now so maybe I do not really understand how this works.  I have checked the entire perimeter and I do not see any gaps.  

      Does anyone know why this will not fill?

    UPDATE - Tried to delete this post.   Now it is filling.  I had Cricut Design Space open with a complicated project - once I closed CDS Inkscape promptly filled in the shape. I guess I needed to make sure nothing else was running besides Inkscape.

    Let's keep the post, others may have this issue. Many Cricut users participate here, so many more may lurk/read.
