Re: [Inkscape-user] Fill part of an object without border

Duplication is the key here, at the step where you do the the path [...] also means you only have to edit one shape when you change the shape of the stripe.

Thanks. This seems a bit circumstantial to me, but it works :)

The second example you gave is just a second shape drawn on top with no stroke applied, and node edited to line up nicely.

Well, this is the problem - how do I adjust the nodes so that they fit exactly to the border? Isn't there a way to do it automatically?
