Is Filled

Is Filled is a shape property supported by Circle, Rectangle, ColoredCircle, and RoundedRectangle.

Introduction

Is Filled sets whether a shape is filled in or if it is drawn using stroke - another word for outline.

Stroke Width

Stroke Width sets the thickness of the stroke (outline). Increasing the value makes the stroke thicker. Note that increasing the stroke brings the stroke inward, so the shape is still bound by its effective width and height.

Stroke, Gradient, and Dropshadow

If a shape element has its Is Filled unchecked, this affects the rendering of gradients and dropshadows.

Gradients only fill the solid parts of a shape, so if a shape has Is Filled set to false, the hollow center of the shape does not show gradient color.

Toggling Is Filled affects the gradient rendering at the center of the shape

Dropshadows respect the opaque part of the shape, so changing Is Filled also affects the dropshadow.

Changing a ColoredCircle's Is Filled to false results in the dropshadow having a hollow center
