I joined to seek out a solution to why my tools under Image or Effects don't bring up a tool dialog, ergo no adjustments can be made with these tools.
My configuration:
Corel Draw Suite 11 Build 11.633
O/S: Windows 7
Other S/W installed: Adobe Photoshop Elements 9
I installed the X5 suite and updates, set up my macros, and everything was working fine. When I restarted Coreldraw, all my macros were disabled? I uninstalled, rebooted and reinstalled, and the same thing happened again. Everything works fine in X4.
My OS is Vista Home Premium with Service Pack 1.
I am using Windows7 (64 bit) machine and CorelDRAW X6 (64 bit) software and also installed HP 5610 all-in-one scanner / printer but i noticed in CorelDRAW X6 / Corel PP x6 acquire image >> select source... and acquire.. are disable.
it is bug or need some more software to enable for CorelDRAW x6 because HP 5610 Scanner work with other software.
In my color separations in print preview the "use advanced settings" is disabled.
I have loaded cdr graphics suite 12 on my new laptop w/windows 7, and also on my old machine that I have loaded windows 7 on. Cannot register the program any more due to outdated version. problem exists on both computers.
There are other minor issues but this one I use regularly.
After a likely upgrade to windows update opentype fonts are no longer 'displayed in coreldraw X3 X4 X5 X6 on any computer. it was necessary to restore the computer to the previous date, coreldraw uninstall and disable automatic updates. The problem is only on Coreldraw. In word and photoshop fonts were displayed correctly. The problem is serious because many studies have Opentype fonts and files appear blank.This update from window I will not have 'never install it?
View 1 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to adjust the kerning between 2 characters of text? I don't want to adjust the kerning of the entire word, just between 2 letters in the word. The font has too much space between the "V" and "A". I've tried using Paragraph Formatting, but that adjusts the entire word.

Is there some way to move the corner control points of the perspective effect grid via the arrow keys? I have hand problems and any time I need to move something very precisely I use the arrow keys, or risk hurting my hands. If not, would there be some way to do this with a macro? Also, is there some setting for it – other than having to hold down the shift and control keys while you click and drag, which is just a killer for me – that will arrange it in ways that are only symmetrical (where if you move one side the other side moves equally in the opposite direction)? As far as I can see, rectangular and freehand settings behave the same.

See the figure below.
Is there any way to adjust the dimensions, when dragged, with regular distance from object?
See differences by red arrows. The intention is that dimensions keep a pre-set regular distance.
Sometimes they work, sometimes they don't. It is very frustrating and I'd like to know why they sometimes don't work.
Example:
I have a rectangle with a smaller rectangle over it, I want to punch a hole in the bottom rectangle with the top one. I select both, click on "Trim" and it doesn't knock it out. If you look at it in wireframe, you can see the shape I wanted to punch out, but that bottom rectangle is still solid. "Back minus Front" doesn't work either.
I use a rectangle as the example, but things I'm trying to punch out are text converted to curves, imported logos, etc.
Sometimes, very few, the Trim works. Is there a certain reason why it doesn't work most of the time? Something to do with the curve of the shape(s) that I'm trying to punch out?
When I go to change the thickness of an artistic media stroke, it jumps up from .045 to .095 or down to 0.3, or similar sorts of jumps in either direction, when I want to make finer adjustments than that. I'm surprised that a program that has so many options and precise ways of doing things wouldn't allow that. Is there no way to accomplish that?

View 14 Replies View RelatedIn my image adjustment dialog (photopaint X5 Brightness/Contrast/Intensity) the image is far too small.
The actual image is about 5.5" x 2.8" and in normal view is fine. when I open the dialog to adjust the whole image is collapsed into a few pixels.
I have shutdown and restarted Photopaint but the problem is still the same.

I'm a long time Corel user trying out Coreldraw suite 6. I'm having a problem making some shape tools work on text (they work fine on other objects). If, for example, I write a piece of text and then select it, followed by the smear shape tool, most of the time the text is deselected and the tool does nothing. However, the Shape, Smudge and Roughen brushes work OK. I've tried using different fonts and text attribute to no avail. I've tried L&R clicking, holding the button down and double (and multiple) clicking slowly and quickly. But no deal. It's not a mouse or pad problem, it's the same on both.
BUT...guess what, every now and then it decides to work! Sometimes it will work on a piece of text and later won't work on it again.
I have about 8 squiggles that are quite wide. I use the transparency tool in radial or conical mode... the center position matters, but it seems like essentially the same transparent effect stays regardless of the distance of the radius laid down by the tool. the little slider bar seems to do something, but I'm trying to get the transparency to go out more... but the radius doesn't change the transparency effect.
This seems like a bug. Why wouldn't the distance from the center to the edge matter?... the distance matters when it's working in linear transparency mode.
How or were to find the crop mark / registration mark tools in x6.

Why why why, doesn´t it install over X4? Is there anyway that i could install it? My previous version was CDGS 12 and Embroidery + KPT installed and they worked well.
X4 seems to be much better than 12 at first test...
I have been using Coreldraw for several years now to create maps, but I am not good with the artistic tools, I need to create something like the attached "Back to Future" photo, specially the fire & lightning effects, I am planning to replace the car with another object.

View 4 Replies View Related I work in pre-press for a Label Printing company and we do Flexo and Screen printing. I get files from designers, most files have been created in Illustrator.
I use Corel Draw X5 to do my pre-press work and some of the files I get have Lens effect objects. When I apply the "No Lens Effect" the object changes to a Symbol and it has no fill and no outline, how do I convert the Symbol object to a "regular" object?
I want to know the best way to convert these Lens and Symbol objects to regular objects that are "flattened" or do not have transparency. I need to be able to work with these objects like they are a regular vector object that can be edited for pre-press to make files to send to have films output.
OR, will an object that has a Lens effect output normally if I make a Postscript file fro the Lens effect object? Do I even need to convert the Lens effect in order to get the image to output correctly?
problem with the tools in Photoshop CS4 that only exists after watching a video. After watching a video online (You Tube, for example) or watching a video in Windows Media Player, all the tools stop functioning.
CPU: Core2Duo E6750 2.66GHz
Operating System: Windows Vista Ultimate - 32 bit
Memory: 2GB DDR2 800(PC2 6400)
CS4 opens without a problem. I can open any file (.psd, jpg, etc)and it loads. When I go to click on a tool, nothing happens. The only tool available is the "hand" tool. Nothing else works. None of the tools are dimmed out either.
I have found that by logging off and then logging back in, or restarting the computer clears the problem.

View 14 Replies View Relatedwhy (sometimes) when I export text or graphics as .eps files to my cutter it cuts the same outline up to four to five times and ends up cutting right through the backing paper. I have been using postcut with various corel editions since 1997 with no problems until recently. It also cuts random lines through lines of text which is such an expensive pain in the ass.
I started to use the production manager in flexi sign to cut my designs and same thing happens, except for the random lines but it will make up to five cuts on some objects. All text and graphics are exported the same. Has something in corel newer versions changed in relation to this?
We are having a big problem with dropping lines of text or parts of graphics. It is happening on 3 different laser systems and 2 different printers.
View 14 Replies View RelatedOften whatever I'm working on in X4 disappears off the document page when I zoom in or out. It's still there (I can see it in the print preview)and I can print it, but I can't see it no matter what view (e.g., normal, draft, etc.) I select. If I select the entire page I can see the graphic and text handles, but nothing else. The only way I can see my work again is to save it, close the program, and then re-open the file. My computer is a Dell Precision Work Station T3400 running Vista Ultimate with an Intel Core2 Quad CPU, 4GB RAM, and my graphics card is an NVIDIA Quadro FX 570 256MB. All my software and drivers are up to date. The problem occurs no matter what screen resolution or refresh rate I'm using.
View 6 Replies View Relatedi´m using CRD since X3 so I think i´m quite experienced with all the crashes and uncompatibilities but now I have a problem which I can´t solve.
I made a graphic project which is quite large (2,6m x 2,0m @ 300dpi) and including raster grahics. The CDR file itself has about 400MB. When I tried to export this graphic to the png or jpg at the current size Corel X5 always crashes. I tried almost everything on many computers but always the same problem.
It looks like the project is too large for export. At this moment I desperately need to export the file to jpg or png at full resolution. Maybe X6 is more stable when exports or I have to simplify the project somehow but...
