I'm trying to change the opacity of an enclosed stroke (path) to 60%, but I can't. Every time I left-click on the enclosed stroke and set the opacity to 60%, that's applied to the fill only (image below):
Then, when I open the Appearance Window, there's no stroke appearing:
If I left-click on other strokes, such as the one in the below image, the stroke appears in the Appearance window. So I can change the opacity of this stroke (image):
But it is impossible to do so to the stroke of the enclosed path above. Left-clicking on its path/stroke/anchor pint, its fill always appears rather than its stroke. So what can I do to change the opacity of the enclosed stroke ? Thanks.
PS: With the strokes that are possible to change their opacity, it seems that I used Live paint Bucket to create Live Paint groups and then colored the areas that these strokes encompass. Then I clicked expand and ungroup these strokes. That allows me to distinguish between strokes and fills of these areas. But for the areas that I did not create Live Paint group and expanded and ungrouped, it seems that I can't distinguish between stroke and fill to change their opacity separately. What could I do?
