I have an SKShapeNode, defined by a circleWithRadius. When I try to modify the color of node with node.fillColor, gets filled the entire area around the circle, not just the area defined by circle path. My question is: how can I fill just the inner area of node?

Edit

Here is my code:

    let bigCirle = SKShapeNode(circleOfRadius: baseControlerRadius)
    bigCirle.position = CGPointMake(self.view!.frame.size.width * 0.85, (self.view?.frame.size.height)! * 0.15)
    bigCirle.fillColor = SKColor.blueColor()
    bigCirle.name = bigCircleControlerSKNodeName
    self.addChild(bigCirle)

You mean the entire node's frame is filled instead of just the inside area of the circle? – sangony Jul 07 '15 at 16:24
Yes, that's what I was trying to say – Alec Firtulescu Jul 07 '15 at 16:41

Setting the `fillColor` property of a shape node should only fill in the circle. I suggest you post the code that creates the shape. – 0x141E Jul 07 '15 at 16:42
Here's the doc for SKShapeNode. https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/SpriteKit/Reference/SKShapeNode_Ref/ @0x141E is right that `fillColor` should work. Perhaps if you're not seeing what you want, you could explicitly define `clearColor` for `strokeColor` – Phoenix Jul 07 '15 at 17:54

There's nothing wrong with the code you posted. You should see a blue circle with a thin white outline. Are you running the latest Xcode? – 0x141E Jul 07 '15 at 21:10
I'm running Xcode 7 beta – Alec Firtulescu Jul 08 '15 at 06:36
Did you check the baseControllerRadius size because maybe the reason could be your skshape is too big to fit in the self view. – mert Jul 08 '15 at 07:07

Circle fits in view just fine. I'm sure this is just a bug from Xcode, unfortunately it's not the first one. – Alec Firtulescu Jul 08 '15 at 07:34
I have this same problem. Did you ever get a solution? – PKCLsoft Jul 28 '16 at 22:57
Same problem here. It's weird because on iPad device it works fine. However on iPhone simulator the whole node is really colored, instead just the inner circle. – Antonin Charvat Jun 14 '18 at 20:56
