@Sarah-Austen yes, this seems to cause some problems with both the shape builder and the shape paint.
I opened a bug on this one.
-
@VectorStyler ok thanks for all your help. If I need to do anything else just let me know. Thanks again
-
@VectorStyler will I get informed when the bug gets fixed?
-
@Sarah-Austen I will post updates on this forum.
The main issue is that currently the shape builder tool (similar to shape paint) does not handle well cases where there are no intersections, just very close nodes to another curve.
Clearly there are some bugs here, and this is of the highest priority.

As @VectorStyler wrote, "Shape Paint" has difficulties
with "...cases where there are no intersections..."When I read this, I had a thought. Until this is fixed.
It might help, perhaps, if you change your approach
a little when you draw your outline.So that you draw your outline a little over the other outline.
At the end you can correct these overhangs with the "Trim Tool".I don't know if that is helpful with complex drawings.
But wanted to share the thought at leastThe Steps in the Video:
Select your Outlines,
select Styles > Shape Paint > "Create Shape Paint"
Fill your ShapesSelect your creation and choose
Styles > Shape Paint > "Expand Shape Paint"
then trim the overhangs with the "Trim Tool"

It is the next task, working on it now, but this one might take some time.
This one also requires some improvements to union/intersection/merge operators, so it is a big one
I will post updates here.
