      How do I change the shapebuilder to only fill the negative space, not create one solid shape with the negative and positive space? Here is a video of me attempting to fill the interior portion of the coffee cup. The outline of the cup is a solid fill vector.

          @Boldline Try 'Reverse Path Direction' (Ctrl-I) before using Shape Builder.
