Moho Forum

Hi,

Below I have 2 graphics - which are similar. i.e. 2 sets of 2 Black Boxes with thin White borders
- overlayed upon each other as 'Shapes' (i.e. Shape #1 and Shape #2). They are both on the same layer - along with the blue shape in the background.

What I am trying to understand is why #2 is transparent at the intersection of the two inner boxes, and yet #1 is not?



#1) I created in Moho

#2) I imported from an SVG

The boxes for #2 share the same shape, so the overlap is considered a hole.

Interesting....

I think when I created #1 - I created two filled (inner) boxes and then added them together to make a new single shape. I have now tried with 2 unfilled (inner) boxes and yes it behaves as you have stated - when I then make them a shape (i.e. a transparent hole).

When I go back and change the fill colour for Shape #1, the intersect (hole) is now black (i.e previous fill).



I could then select the inner-shape - by selecting the black bit - and whilst messing with shape ordering ended up with the rather strange Green, Black, Transparent (Blue).

Yeah, that looks like you now have four or five shapes on that layer. Two boxes with holes, the blue band, and one or two black squares on #1.
