    Back to Sq. One...filling a rectangle w/ color

    Canned Pug Community Member

      Hello again,

       

      Once again I cannot fill a rectangle with color. Through some undetermined quirk, it righted itself when I last posted this problem:

      Now I really need it to work for sure, and tried everything you all posted and none of it really addresses the problem. Initially it filled with a gradation, but the swatch was the same one shown here, not a gradation, and the gradation wasn't chosen in the tool bar. When I scrolled between swatches, the color changed, but remained a gradient (to white).

       

      When I use the scroll bar I can see it, but not when I stop.

       

      Again, here is another screen shot. I have tried everything suggested in the former post. I'm assuming that when I save, close then reopen, the preferences are reset? Or do I have to manually toss them?

       

      on 2nd shot, you can se this time I've chosen the gradation and it doesn't show either.

       

      ACK! Any inspirations??
