What steps do I take to fill the doughnut solid ?  When I select the edge color and bucket fill inside all of the black inside and outside gets filled in.  How do I get the fill to stop where where there is a line?  Darryl

I do not think there is any easy way to "fill-the-doughnut"  

What you can try is using the fuzzy select tool and enable the Draw Mask Option in the tool options. This adjusts the threshold value when you click inside the doughnut and drag left and right. The magenta color shows the extent of the selection.

Get the best you can, release the mouse for the selection, and (probably) grow the selection by 3 or 4 pixels.

Bucket fill the selection, then select -> none.

How many of these do have to do ? Hundreds ?
