The pencil tool doesn't respect the fill and stroke color styling attributes set by the user.

Done the right way none of us would do this work and we wouldn't have to agree either. We would not even know about each other. But the person doing it would sum up knowledge in the world and knowledge about the user base (and the potential users) and apply a proven method. The ongoing debate here about something this trivial is just leading nowhere. The wrong people doing the work the wrong way.
AI and CorelDRAW has archaic user interfaces that sucks ass and any program that dares to improve a workflow by taking out the guesswork and complexity tends to succeed. Leaning towards the dinoraurs is dangerous.

How about grouping tools that belong together
in the preferences a little bit ?
-
If you didn't catch my drift; if this little microscopic bugger of a setting is going to require so much and so many posts from random users, how on earth could something like the interface of complex features be completed or improved?

The issue is not really about this pencil setting itself - it's really about deciding what kind of approach is given to creating the best default UI interface, tool panel preferences and the contextual menu bar.
The UI and the contextual menu bar are both finite in the amount of space within that can house tools and shortcuts. The debate is really about what NEEDS to be readily accessible at all times, what needs to be in the tool panel preferences and what can be left in the main preferences themselves.
In the end it's up to @VectorStyler what he feels best fits his vision of the application called Vectorstyler. Time and user experience will eventually prove his decisions right or wrong and we'll celebrate the good ones and make suggestions on what to improve as we go along. -
anyone know whats going on here?
im disabling the stroke before i draw
and still it appearsMacBook Pro 16” M1 Max 64GB RAM

@ncic I can replicate the issue here — it looks like the previous object had a black stroke and (with that object deselected) changing the stroke color right after choosing the Pencil tool and before drawing with it doesn't register the change to 'no stroke'.
As a simple workaround for now, change the stroke to 'none' after the first stroke and the strokes to follow should have only a fill.

@ncic Selecting "None" will set the stroke to none, it is just the editor field has an error and shows Hairline.
At least here, once the None is selected (or the stroke is cleared from the color panel), the pencil tool will draw without stroke. -
@ncic This issue should be fixed in build 1.1.062
