    Hi.

    I made a simple object. Copied it to the clipboard with "CTRL+C"

    When I try to draw with free hand or bezier curve from clipboard it only adds the border without fill.
    I don't want the border. I only want the fill. Like the object I draw.

    I'm using inkscape 1.0.2

    Thanks.

    There is a stroke and a fill. You can choose a fill color, just like you can choose a stroke color.

    But why it's not drawing like the path object. I mean the full ellipse with no border. 

    After drawing I must select all the drawings and set the fill and the border. It takes a lot of time, if I have too many objects.

    Some solution? Or is that a bug?

    Did you see my previous post. The tool you use (Bezier or Pen) has its own attributes. You can select a stroke for your object, or a fill, or both.

    I tested now with inkscape 0.92.3. It's working.

    Where are these settings?

    Can someone please test this? I can't get it to work.

    Some images would be useful.

    What settings are you talking about? Explain what is not "working". Have you read what I posted here and in your other thread?

    I supplied images and explanations and written and visual material.

    Hi. After you converted the object to a path, did you then press Ctrl and C to copy it to memory? Or, by doing this under the Edit Menu? And then, after that, did you draw your path/stroke/line?

    It could be a problem with the 1.02 version. Ideally, this should work on any Inkscape version. If you can only get this to work on 92.3, 92.4, 92.5, or even 1.01 but not 1.02, there is a different issue. And you can ajways save it as an svg (in your workable version) and bring that saved file into a different Inkscape version.

    By the way, version 1.1 should he released soon and hopefully without any such issues.

    I pressed "CTRL+C" to copy it to the memory.

    After that I draw the path.

    Also the link you gave:
    https://inkscape.org/forums/tutorials/exploring-pattern-along-path-options/

    With Inkscape 0.92.3 it's working as expected.

    That is good news. The proper steps seem to be working in version 92.x but not in version 1.02.

    My advice is to keep using the version that is working ... and the resulting svg files in (a) the same or higher version of Inkscape or (b) wait a little longer until version 1.1 is released (near end of May).

    Seems to work in 1.02 under Linux.

    I'd check the preferences for the tools, set the style for last used.
