Only drawing strokeless fills

I am trying to get each layer to draw in order. The order works but it only draws the outlines of the fills even though they don't have a stroke. I want the fills to draw in the order layer and not just appear at the end. Is there a way to do this?

Hi,

If you import an SVG with fills and no stroked paths, videoscribe will always draw filled paths that way.


If you want them to be revealed by the drawing hand, here is some suggested reading:

specifically:

The  transparent stroke method is described in this official video (starting at 2:00 into the video): VideoScribe tutorial -- Creating your own SVGs (it is an older video so it features an older version of videoscribe)
Related official support post: "Instant Answers-Create your own images" <-see "method 2" in that post
Somewhat related official support post: "Fill an image with color using the hand"


However, if I were using that graphic, I would make 8 separate images, each with one visible puzzle piece, including the central logo as the eight piece. And I would use "fade-in" to  reveal them in sequential order.
