I am trying to powerclip glass jpg into this , but it shows it powerclipped but no color. What am I doing wrong. Thanks
There are two possible reasons, from what I can see:You can only powerclip properly into closed objects.It is only possible to powerclip into multiple objects if they are grouped together.
In this case I'd create a circle, same size as the outer circle, and powerclip into it. Then put it behind all other objects.There are other solution as well, but this is probably the easiest one.
Please come back if you need alternative solutions.
How do I close the separate sections. I would like to be able to put different colors in the different sections. Thanks
Its probably nothing to do with windows 8.
What is glass.jpg, and where do you want to see it?
This is going to be a stained glass panel, I have all the glass colors in jpg format and wanted to color it to see the finished product. I got it done but had to take way more steps than I have in the past. Here is a pic of it.
Glad you got it right, Michael.

Smart fill followed by powerclip is probably the easiest way to do a job like this if it is a one-off requirement.
If you were doing a lot of these, you might investigate making a bitmap fill for each of your glass colours. You could then go straight from the smart fill to the fill tool to select the correct coloured bitmap.
Could you walk me through how to do this? Thanks
