Applying fills and strokes to containers

Adding fills and strokes to a container (such as a group or layer) applies the fills and strokes to all artwork in the container.

To apply a fill or stroke to a container:

1. Target a container in the Layers palette. (See Changing the appearance of artwork using the Layers palette.)
2. Do one of the following:
• Choose Add New Fill or Add New Stroke from the Appearance palette menu.
• Click on a brush in the Brush palette to add a brushed stroke to the container.
• Click on a style in the Styles palette which has a fill or stroke.
