The form of a Bézier path is determined by its contour and fill.

The contour is defined by the pen, style and halo and by the options for the corner/end forms. These are all to be found in the Attributes window. The fill can be either a color or a pattern. Fill settings can be changed or redefined in the Fills window.

If you draw a new Bézier path, this will automatically be assigned the attributes selected in the Attributes and Fills windows at the time it is drawn.

You can change these attributes subsequently in a number of ways. Select the Bézier paths or segments you want to change. Now click the button for the required attribute, e.g. a pen, in the Attributes window. The window of the required attribute appears. You can now change the attribute.

Double-click a Bézier path or a selected segment to change the pen. The new pen is the switch pen of the old pen (see the Edit pen dialog in Show Attribute Window).
