Smart Vector Fill properties
Attributes Default Fill Ink: Creates a vector object using the fill ink selected in the
Toolbox.
Default Fill and Pen Ink, and Stroke: Creates a vector object using
the fill ink, pen ink, and stroke selected in the Toolbox.
If you want to use the Fill, Pen Ink, and Stroke option, you might
want to set these attributes before you create your overlapping
objects and use the Smart Vector Fill tool.
To set the attributes, create an object with these attributes first,
and then click the Set Default Attributes button to make those
attributes the default. The Smart Vector Fill tool uses these
default attributes to create the fill in the overlapping areas you
select.
Position Behind vector paths: Creates a vector object behind the other vector
segment objects.
Above vector paths: Creates a vector object in front of the other vector
segment objects.
Tolerance Select a level of tolerance. This value sets the threshold for how close vector
segments need to be before an area is considered enclosed.
Exact: Offers the lowest level of tolerance.
Fine: Offers a low level of tolerance.
Loose: Offers the highest level of tolerance.
Adding annotations

illustrations, or to create simple flowcharts. The annotation tools can be found in the Toolbox with the
Markup tools.
Basic: Adds a single annotation and points to a single object.
Multiple Sources: Adds a single annotation and points to one or more objects.
Multiple Notes: Adds multiple annotations and points to a single object.
