    Back again for some help!

    I'm not sure of how to delete a path that is currently connected between two places if that makes sense. In the picture I attached, I want what's inside the red to be deleted and the 2 nodes in their own green circles to be connected to each other. Hope this was a halfway decent explanation. Thanks in advance!

    IΒ΄d go this way:

    First make sure your color filled object "Fill" is set to full-rule: nonzero. If the "holes" are vanishing select one node of each part of the strokes building the holes and go Path->Reverse

    Now draw a simple rectangle over the part you want to delete - donΒ΄t have to be super exact

    Select shape and rectangle and go Path->Difference

    Select the 2 left+right nodes with the Nodel-tool from the new opening and hit backspace to delete.
