    Hi there,

    I'm using the 'fill bounded areas' tool and there seems to be a perimeter inside the bounded area where it isn't filling the color. I'm unfamiliar with this tool- is this normal or is there anyway to have the color fill the entire area? Please see attached example- Thanks!

    This tool has parameters and works more precisely when zoomed into the area you want to fill. If you want it very precise youยดll need to Convert the black lines with Path->Stroke to Path - then Path->Union - then Path->Break Apart - you have then 3 shapes you can fill with colours independently:
