CorelDRAW Graphics Suite 12 :: Unable To Fill Shapes

Apr 14, 2011

I am not a power user but have used CorelDraw since ver 8. My question is why I cannot fill shapes like the one provided whether I create them in Draw, or import them as dwg or dxf into Draw. It's interesting that I can fill this shape in DesignCad (the source of the dwg-dxf files) but not in Corel. Of course, the project I'm working on needs the other touches that Draw provides and DesignCad doesn't.

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X6 :: Fill Shape With Other Shapes

Apr 4, 2012

I'm trying to find the best way to fill a shape with other shapes( a with a specific size), without overlaping, like the example below.

My main concerns are the spacing between the circles, the positioning should be as paralel to the the outside shapes as possible, and the size of the circles ( or any other necessary shape).

I'm doing this by hand sometimes with 900 circles. is there a fast way to this? do you know any macro/plugin to make the task easier?

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite 12 :: Fill Empty Space Surrounded By Other Shapes

Aug 16, 2011

In Coreldraw 12, I often use combine to end up with a one solid shape with many holes in it. Often I want to add a color inside one of the holes, much like a coloring book, but there is no shape there, it is just empty. What is the quickest way to create a solid that fills that hole exactly?

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X5 :: Unable To Use The Fill?

Apr 12, 2011

I have followed the instructions carefully and am unable to fill anything.

I make a rectangle. Choose the colour from the palette, drag the little coloured box over to the rectangle and release. Nothing. Many years ago I used my brothers Corel draw, so I know ( or knew then ) how to colour a rectangle.

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X4 :: Resizing Multiple Shapes

Mar 9, 2011

I'm working with drawings that have (for example) 1,000 little circles with diameter 1.5mm. I'd like to resize all of them to, say, 2.0mm but I don't want to scale them as this will affect their distance from each other.

Macros: I have tried recording the adjustments on one object but I'm unable to run the macro on another - the macro errors out.

Find/Replace objects: I don't see any options involving object dimensions (although I can "Find All" of my objects by shape or fill).

BDInnerShadow_v2.gms

Here is a free macro which saves a little time. It creates an inner shadow on one or more selected shapes. There are a few presets on the macro and if you want to adjust the transparency slightly, click the undo arrow, adjust the transparency and then reapply.

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X6 :: Cannot Index Shapes Array

Oct 6, 2013

I am writing a C# (.Net) app to auto create a CorelDraw document, by copying and pasting shapes from a document containing master copies of shapes, into a new document.

I have a simple VBA script that does this. And now I am trying to convert it to C# but I cannot get it to find the shapes from the Shapes array of the layer in the master document.

i keep getting error "Argument out of range".  The code is: string myShapeName = "round_green";

CorelDRAW.Shape myShape = masterDoc.Pages[0].Layers["Images"].Shapes[myShape];

The pages and layers arrays work (return the correct object). I seem to recall someone saying there was an issue with the COM objects returned by the Shapes array.   But in this case the error indicates the issue is with the indexer passed in - I have tried an integer (0) and a variable containing a string and neither work.

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X4 :: Macro - Spacing Two Shapes Using Worldscale?

Jan 1, 2012

I'd like to enter a value to space two shapes but use the currently set worldscale. How can I do this?

I'll be using a architectural scale such as 3/8" = 1'-0" and such.

= Round(txtScaleDen.Value / 144)
Call setDocScaleCheckbox(chkUseDocScale.Value, userWorldScale)

I hate pressing F8 at startup!

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X5 :: Drawing With Mesh Fill?

Aug 22, 2011

Never did anything with mesh fill till today. Did some reading on it here over the past few days and did a drawing using only mesh fills, 1 for subject and 1 for background. I spent about 2 hours on it. I'm calling it "Lumpy-Bottle"

Is there a good way to assign grid node coordinates, other then free hand(I couldn't find a display for node coordinates) . Could you use a cad program, that displays a numeric coordinate for nodes to do the bulk of the grid work and tune it up or add different elements to cad drawing or use cad to do this type of drawing. I have a copy of "Turbo Cad" I have not used yet and was wondering how the different programs compared? I was trying to use the drawing grid guide, but the mesh fill grid lays on top of it and is opaque and and I couldn't use it well inside the mesh fill. I guess I could draw a transparent grid guide and lay it on top of the mesh fill, in a separate layer and lock it down

Is there some kind of guide or document  on color placement and the relationship to grid line spacing, node placement and node handle angle and length.

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X5 :: Selecting Object That Has No Fill?

Oct 11, 2012

I just upgraded to X5 the other day and started working with it. All seemed pretty normal until I drew a rectangle with a hairline and no fill. I typed in some text and went to click off of it to start a separate line of text only to find out when clicking inside this shape, and any other shape I made, it would select the shape.

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X6 :: Texture Fill And Printing

Jan 15, 2013

Texture fill and a printing problem.  They may be related. First, the file I am working with was originally created in Corel 10.  I'm using X6 in Windows 8.

It is a map. I have several layers but the two layers I am having trouble with are the continental shelf and the land layers.

I cannot texture fill either in X6.  I go through all the steps but the fill will not show on the screen nor will it print.  I can fountain fill, solid fill etc .these layers and they will print as filled.  This is the same for both printers I have, which are also new with 128MB of memory each.

In addition, I can get a fountain fill to print on the continental shelf layer, but cannot get a fountain fill to print on the land layer; even though the fill shows on the screen.   I can get a solid fill to print on the  land layer.

I've the objects in the proper order, the print is turned on for all these layers, etc.

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X5 :: How To Fill Letters With A Pattern

Apr 28, 2012

I want to make some letters and fill them with a background pattern like rainbow.

all the fonts are solid black so I need to know how to hollow them out so the background fill will show, then have to cut out all the letters to get the background around them removed so I have only the letters filled with rainbow that can then be moved around and overlaid like with the gray checkerboard squares thing happening.

Like this: imagine a rainbow backing picture with " I heart Mom" text overlaid, fill the " I heart Mom" with rainbow then get rid of the rest of the rainbow backing that is OUTSIDE the letters.  The word heart will be replaced with a heart shape.

if I have a group of areas that I want filled... I can select uniform, fountain, and postscript... but why doesn't pattern work for a group?  This would be useful and seems like a bug.  Why would I have to apply the fill to each part of the group?  Groups are supposed to be useful for manipulating multiple objects in this way.
