Re: Closed Geometries: can I color them?

If I design a circle, the area of it is not colored and I can't find the way to do it. I'm not talking about ...

Re: PieMenu (v2.0)

No wy to make it work ... using TAB it's not occurring anything. I uninstalled it, re-installed etc: no way. Solution: remove it forever. I also faced this problem.

Closed Geometries: can I color them?

The perimeter of the geometry is colored when it's fully closed. May I color the area of the geometry as well or not?
As for Solid Edge and Fusion 360 and others?

For the inges for any closet-door in the furniture, there is a pocket to implement as feature. Instead of design that pocket N...

in the case of a simple recessed hinge it's easy the slot and the screw holes make a single Body (blue) for the hiden hinge it is longer: a container cannot be subtracted, you have to select each body one by one in PartDesign in PartWb we can subtract a container (red cut) You mean I should: design...
