Filling an outline with color?

[abarsky1]

Hi,

I have a detailed template of a box that I need to fill with color. How do I join all the little lines and angles of the outline or the template so I can fill it with color? I can do this by joining each little node, but this will take a lot of time. Thanks, Al

Al:

If you have CS2, try using live paint (read the help files to find out how to use it), otherwise it depends on how close the anchors are (are the ends of the individual paths touching or not?), there's an easy way but I'll wait and see if you have CS2 or not before I go into a long explanation, thanks!
