Hey Marcel, The easiest way is to make use of the split path between two none endpoint nodes button in the node edit toolbar (5th from the left), plus gratiutous use of the duplicate function. When you remove the paths at the end of the shapes it changes what area gets filled, messing them up if you try and do both fill and stroke on the same shape, when this happens, turn off the stroke, duplicate the shape, turn the stroke back on on the duplicate, turn the fill off then remove the curve segment.
Hope that makes sense.

Hey folks, I've just started using this wonderful masterpiece of a drawing tool, but soon ran into a big problem. I wanted to create a web design with interwoven ribbons, and when I saw the calligraphy tool I thought my problems where solved. But one object can only have one z-index, not multiple - which does makes sense, but means the ribbon is either on top of or below another. So I thought, mmh... I might just slice them up in between and give the parts different z-orders, which actually worked. The problem is, I want the ribbons to have an outline, and so the seam has an outline too. And I have no clue how to get rid of that now - and can not continue on my design :( I have posted this on the request feature list already, but sorry I am so eager to get this behind and go on drawing... so I'm wondering what do you devs say about that? ..and thx for such a great program ;) Marcel
