Hi,
I’m new to vector art and was trying to fill an enclosed area with a reference layer set, something like you can do in Procreate.
I realized that this is not possible, so the next thing I tried was to create a shape and duplicating that “reference” layer to intersect with. This gave me the effect but I noticed that the new object created by the boolean can still be separated. The more operations I performed, the more there is in the separated group and it is made up up very small shapes.
As I adjust the reference layer, I have to keep repeating this operation and I am curious if this can cause performance degradations. I am not interested in those smaller shapes, and would rather if I could make the boolean operation (or layer merge) permanent.
Thanks
Matt
