This is a really good explanation. Sometimes they work great for me and other times, not so much. I see here what I’m not doing first, such as converting to curves., or clicking on inner pieces and then they disappear.
I am a rookie. I have three stars like your stars at the begining of the video( a steelers logo). I can’t figure out how to get the tool path to work. It cleans out two of my vectors w stars leaving only one. I made all three stars by myself overlapping circles and cutting out the archs I didn’t want. Any ideas
