Re: no fill in paths

I've run thru help, and I just can't find how to turn off the fill function
when using the pen tool..

I'm trying to draw a line that's not exactly 90 degrees, and when I stop
drawing, I have a colored curve between the start and end point.

It's driving me crazy..

Make sure you have 'path' selected (left on the toolbar, middle icon)
Now you draw a path, which you can stroke (path-panel)
It doesn't work the same as in eg. Illustrator, but is very powerful if you get the hang.
