    I just looked at your file. The problem is that the outline is not a closed shape. If you view it in wireframe mode you can see that it is not joined at the sides. Click on node edit, click and drag the the endpoints to meet the other lines, switch back to enhanced view mode, then the smart fill will work.

    One minute and it's done, with time left over.

    Also, once you have the new shape after using smart fill, you can go back to node edit and select and delete those two nodes on either side to smooth out the shape.

    You can set the smart fill so that it only makes outlines (hairlines) and no fill.
