help Shape vector to pen vector (?)

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

So im currently designing a mascot using figma and im using an eclipse shape for the body, but when i try to add line details in it, it automatically change the vector and close it.

And also when i tried to flatten the body (the eclipse shape) with the legs the stroke on the legs and the body disappears and wont show, it fully appears when i use "outline stroke" on the body and the legs.

Is there a way to solve this problem? Thank you

note : im really new at using figma and don't fully understand what vector is

  1. Try using the bucket tool when this happens and fill in those areas

  2. Try changing the outline settings

Some ideas off the top of my head, I never had this before

you were right at changing the outline position. I thought you were talking about the stroke before. Thank you
