CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X3 :: Level Equalization Tool

Level Equalization was a tool that I used constantly in PhotoPaint 8.  By version 10, it had disappeared for no obvious reason.  It was a really vauable tool.  Fortunately, I still have PhotoPaint 8 on the system, but it tends to introduce other problems, so I rarely go back to it.  It would be handy to have that tool back.  X3 has something called Local Equalization and another option called Histogram Equalization, neither of which seems to do anything useful. 

In fact,  both Histogram Equalization and Local Equalization thoroughly screw up any image that I test on them.  I don't have a clue as to why they are even there, since they absolutely don't work, whereas the original Level Equalization worked really well.
