I was wondering if it was possible that when you trace something with the pen tool and you want it to have a fill, to have that fill dormant untill you've finished the tracing? As it is now, when I trace something with the pen tool, the fill colour is sorta always in my way, overlapping the lines so I can't clearly see them. So I'm actually looking for something like in Photoshop. You trace the thing and then add the fill to it.
To disable the fill when tracing, at the bottom of your toolbar you should see something like this: Fill and Stroke boxes A. Fill box B. Stroke box C. None button -Adobe Click the none box to remove the fill. For any more help with Illy, here is an entire guide: http://livedocs.adobe.com/en_US/Illustrator/13.0/help.html
