Hi Inkspace Forum expert,

I am trying to cut the portion of stock of the circle. I want to cut the black portion out of the circle whose stroke is white in colour.

so far i have used following method to cut the objects & it worked for me :--

• Select both object --> Path --> object to PATH --> cut path

But same method is not working for me in this case..

Please suggest what process we have to follow to do this task.

Regards,

Dinesh

You need to convert with Path->Stroke to path before Path->Difference: There´s a redundant node floating around in your file.

Thanks for replying.

>>There´s a redundant node floating around in your file.

What exactly you mean by the redundant node..?

Please suggest which redundant node is there ?

What is the process of finding a redundant node..? 

If I know this process the next time I can find this bug  on my own.

Select all will show 3 objects in the Status bar - but just 2 are visible. Select the 2 circular shapes and move aside - select all again will show the third one in the selection.

If i am correct then status bar is at the bottom of the Inkspace tool .. right ?

Yes - at the bottom of the Inkscape window.
