About painting
Paths and objects are painted with the
current paint attributes set in the Paint
Style palette. You can select an object
and change its paint attributes at any
time. The new paint attributes are then
assigned to all new objects you create
(except type) until you change the
attributes again. See Setting paint
attributes for more information.
Filling an object paints the area enclosed
by the path. Stroking an object outlines
the path. Paths can be filled or stroked,
or filled and stroked. You can also create
unfilled or unstroked paths by using
the None option in the Paint Style
palette.
