what are your fill settings (stroke/fill etc)

I use OS X SL and have not seen this problem - could you post the whole svg file.

hopefully some one with more experience will come along with the answer but I'll try to help if I can!

Hey all,

I can't seem to use the fill tool in Inkscape (v0.48 on OS X). Trying to fill a rectangle object with a 0.010 mm line width (stroke color: blue) with no fill while sectioning off a chunk with a two-node straight line cutting through the upper half.  I tried filling the area, but it only filled it and left a weird uneven margin on the end (http://www.flickr.com/photos/25968780@...2823.../5552182877/).  Clicking the white margin doesn't do anything.  I also tried changing the line width to something thicker, making it the same color as the straight line, but same seems to have no effect.  Checked for gaps, found none.  I also tried changing the threshold, but that just made it not fill anything at all.  What am I doing wrong?

Thanks,
