SPB-Fill outlines - can they be removed?

When I use SPB-Fill for color filling, I check the "no outline" box under the "Hatching" and "Solid Fill" menus.

And when I insert the color fill, there are no outlines shown which is fine.

But when I delete the fill thereafter, there is an outline overlaying the boundaries of the area previously filled.

To which setting do I refer for this outline not to be shown - as I have to manually delete them which takes time and is a hassle?

And this does not happen when I delete hatching patterns to fill within boundaries.

Help will be appreciated - Many thanks - MichaelB

Hello Michael,

Rather than using Delete Fill, try using F7 Erase / (press E on the keyboard)

Good to know Michael,

The method you were using was correct in that removing the fill still leaves the polyline that contained the fill and these were the outlines you saw. Deleting/Erasing the entity removes both.
