How do you fill in holes

How do you fill in holes on a word.

@Sheri - use the Eraser tool, zoom in very close, set the eraser tool to inverse, and a small value and "paint" the holes closed.

Thank you I will try it.

If that proves to be too tedious, you can also temporarily break it and then use Delete By Area in the Edit menu.

I was thinking break then hold shift and select the word and the holes for the S , W and E's
(maybe be easier to select these from the layer bar)
select cut , then select the remaining little holes and delete then do a paste in place the bring back the word

or just move the selected word etc to a new layer

@Sheri You can break apart, zoom in and just drag the pieces off to the side and delete or just delete as you click on them.  That's whats so great about MTC, so many ways to do this.  ~Diane

Wow I had no idea there were so many options. Thank you to all of you

Wouldn't a shadow with little to no actual increase in size for the shadow and blackout option selected give you the same result with little other work needed?  (Just got back from a trip and no MTC on this computer so my brain may not be thinking or remembering correctly.  ) - or you could shadow like noted and then select all and weld.

I thought blackout 0mm shadow too first
but you would loose the holes in the the S , W and E's

That's true, see I told you I wasn't thinking it all through.  But you could break and save those if you wanted first - all though if I was cutting this, the only ones I would probably keep would be the insides of the e's anyway.  The one in the s and the w tips are not big enough to worry about for me.  But yes Sherri, there is usually lots of ways to do the same thing in MTC.

This is so true of almost everything on a computer. Remember the Paul Simon song "Fifty ways to leave your lover", when I am training people on computers and the variety of stuff that I do, I say it's like that with computers...maybe no 50 but in some cases there can be 5 ways to do something. Keyboard ways, mouse and click ways, etc. We all find the way we like and what works for us!!

Yeah it's always much better to zoom and use the eraser for those purposes. Hope it's helpful.
