Good day.

Whenever I try to merge two fills with the Fill Consolidation tool, whether from the toolbar, keyboard shortcut or edit menu, nothing happens.
If I'm not mistaken a wizard window is supposed to pop up that lets you tick boxes of every Line Consolidation option that you wish to execute.
The fills I'm trying to consolidate are identical and I've made sure that they don't have transparent backgrounds.

What am I doing wrong?

Regards Z.
