One of the features of Fireworks is direct drawing of vector paths. In addition to using vector tools (pen, rectangle, and other geometric shapes) to draw vector paths directly, the most commonly used feature is the ability to join, split, unite, punch, intersect, and cut multiple paths using the **Combine Paths** function. Proper use of the Combine Paths function can make path operations much more efficient. Below, I will provide a brief explanation of how to use the Combine Paths function and its specific applications.
