[GRASS-user] Removing Fill From Areas

   I've looked at the list of v. modules without seeing one that will convert
a map of filled polygons (e.g., soil mapping units, counties) into unfilled
polygons. As long as the centroid remains (which I assume is independent of
whether the areas are filled) empty areas allow other maps to be seen at the
same time.

   Pointer please.

with d.vect set the fill color to "none" or type to "boundary" only.

Hamish,

   I missed that when examining the man page.

   Once again, many thanks.

Happy holidays,
