![]()
at the right bottom of this tool, you will see a triangle, when you click on this triangle you will get the ink bottle tool, Now lets just draw a circle with no stroke on the stage, so select a color, lets say red, and turn the stroke off and draw a circle on stage, now draw another circle with no fill and only a stroke color selected, say blue on stage, lets say you have something like this on stage,

You can click on the ink bottle tool as shown in figure 1, select a color, lets say black and click on the red circle drawn, you will get a black stroke on the red circle drawn, similarly click on the paint bucket tool, select a red green fill and click on the blue circle drawn, you will find the blue circle with green fill in it, like you see below.
