CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X3 :: Save Settings As Default?
Aug 7, 2013
X3 - I use X4 at work with no problems but at home I have X3. I set my workspace the way I want it and all my presets the way I want. I hit tools/save stings as default. I then save my workspace as todays date. Close corel and reopen. It starts with the defaults every time! I have to manually choose my workspace and even after doing so my settings have reverted back to default i.e. text to be point not inches like I chose etc.

I use CorelDRAW X4 exclusively (90%) for Laser work. I have a Page saved as Laser Page. It use to open with a 24 x 12 page area and Horizontal and vertical guidelines in place. It is set to "show guidelines."
However, every time I open a new document, the page layout and guidelines are not there. I always have to rebuild the page and add the guidelines. What has changed so that all I get is a blank page anymore? Or how to reestablish my defaults? I have re-saved it as my new default countless times but nothing sticks. It's a pain to have to always reestablish the layout I want to work with..

Experiencing problems with the dimension tool since upgrading to Corel Draw X6 at this end, which hasn't been resolved with the updates.
I work in mm. The system doesn't remember the default settings if I change my preferences for it to measure in mm via the customisation window or the toolbox as it used to in previous versions. When I open the program again or start a new document, the measurement default keeps changing back to ["] (inches). Sometimes, it will jump back to inches after I change the default to mm when I'm working on the same document.
Same problem seems to be happening with the other units of measure available as well.
Current workaround - the only time it seems to remember my settings is if I change the default to mm and then save a document.
I can fwd a video screen capture which shows the problem if that would work.

Is there a way that coreldraw x5 by default saves as to an older version e.g. 12, 13,. [ so we don't have to specially go to the save as dialog box] automatically just like there's an option in AutoCAD?

I just got X6. I can't get my default color mode to save. I go to options, document,general and change it from CMYK to RGB click document to save styles for all but it doesn't save it. When I export I have to manually change CMYK to RGB and the resolution every time. In other versions once I set it it was always there. Am I missing a setting somewhere?

How can I determine "Tab Settings" with 5 mm - as my default?
It does not glue when I change such preference and use "Save Settings as Default"? When I reopen Draw it is back to 10,0 mm.

I managed to get a nice set of different settings to publish a corel file to pdf. Now I would like copy these settings to multiple other pc's in the office. where a can find the file/folder in which these settings are being saved?
Otherwise I would have to set all different pc's individually and I rather spend my time otherwise.

So in document color settings in color management, should the primary color mode be RGB or CMYK? I only print inkets and never send stuff out to a regular printer.
should all color settings be at RGB if the option is offered?

I have an existing X6 document which has a rectangle object with a Lens attached.
I did not create the document, so what sort of lens it is and what settings the lens has. I suspect it is a transparency lens.
I cannot find any way to locate the settings for this lens - so that I can reproduce and modify the lens settings. Where i can find the settings for the lens?

I've noticed that DRAW seems to forget whatever settings I choose for duplicate.
So, I found the following in the index:
"Copying objects quickly. You can use other methods to create copies of objects quickly, without using the Clipboard. You can use the plus sign (+) on the numeric keypad to place a copy of an object on top of the original object, or you can create copies instantly by pressing the Space bar or right-clicking while dragging an object."
The + sign thing is cool. Wish I had known. But the Space bar drag either doesn't work at all or puts down one copy at what is apparently a set distance from the original, and then a second copy wherever I release the mouse button. ? Win7, DRAW X6.

I have been drawing the drafting lines and measurements manually and noticed the dimensions tool. Works great but when I shrink the layout for proofing the measurements change. Is there a setting that I can select that will keep the actual measurements of the drawing no matter how I resize it for proofing?

See the red marked area, where it is not accepting to select the rgb or cmyk. Only accepts the Lab only. It is changing the X5 but not in the X6.

I have had this problem since I loaded CorelDRAW X6 (64-bit) in June, 2012 but was busy learning all that was new since the ancient version running on my equally ancient Windows98 machine. Up until this point, I have tried all of the directions in the manual, this forum and on the website which includes, "Save Settings As Default". (These instructions do not differ from those I use in the old CD package only where I make them.)
These are the steps taken:
Open CorelDRAW X6 starting a new file.
Go to "Text Properties" Docker & choose the font, size, etc.
Under Tools, select "Save Settings As Default", close CDX6.
Technically, these steps should have saved the new font with associated choices for all future files until I change them again, but it does not. When I open a new or existing file, my new font changes do appear on the Text docker so I choose the outlined A on the toolbox bar, my choices are still showing on the Text docker and now, also on the Property bar. As soon as I click on the workspace where the flashing cursor awaits input, the text properties change to Arial, 24 pt, which has appeared since I first loaded the package. Should I redownload and reinstall the software? If so, where are the preference files so I can save them?

I just got a new system installed corel draw fresh, loaded all my gms's , imported workspace , great all work as before all my menus are nice and active...,
However my custom gradients have disappeared..., it took me a while to set up certain gradients and I removed lots of the useless default ones that were there preset in the previously installed corel draw.
I accessed my old hard drive and found the gradient preset file however when I copied and replaced with the old gradient file the gradient data is not there....
location C:Program FilesCorelCorelDRAW Graphics Suite X6DrawPresetsStyles - FountainFills.cdss
is there another location where my old gradients would be saved?

good procedure to scan pages from a book on a flatbed scanner and edit the resulting file in Corel Photopaint (PP).
My situation is the following: The book contains text as well as images. The final image, after scanning and editing in PP should look good when printed on my simple desktop B&W laser printer but also look well when placed in a document for viewing on the computerscreen. The latter require colors.
My experiences so far: Usually I scan from PP using 600 dpi, to make the text look good on print. Often I get text prints which are not that nice, because in the rasterization which is taking place when my image is printed on my laserprinter in B&W it contains white pixels in the text sections. I can see them when using my 8x Horizon magnifying glass. I guess it is because I need to use pure black in RGB. What are the optimal color settings for my document? (Color Management setting ...). What I usually do when editing the images in PP is that I want to remove the often greyish areas around the corner of the page and make the text stand more black and crisp. To do so, I out-mask the images to not destroy them. Then in the Image Adjustment Lab window I use the "Select White Point" and "Select Black Point" to make the background behind the text white and to make the text more black. Sometimes I also use "Contrast Enhancement". Afterwards I sometimes use the "Invert Mask" tool to improve the images a little.
I am interested in the best settings for my document (Color Management) and a working process which means my scannings and editing can be accomplished in a decent time with a relative high degree of quality.

Will I lose my workspace or CM settings when installing from 16.1 to 16.2?
Right now everything is running somewhat smoothly for me and I'm wondering if I should even bother upgrading?

Ideal color settings for exporting .jpg and .eps files for CMYK printing? The default X6 settings result in rather washed out looking exports (both on the screen and on the prints). Black looks very dark grey etc.
Never had this issue with X3 but I understand that X6 uses a totally different color engine so I figure I just need to know the correct settings.

How do I go about saving the settings on the open dialog box? It keeps moving to different locations and it keeps changing the Name / Date modified / Type / Size columns very narrow where it only shows the name and nothing else.
I do have the dialog box very large across so it can accommodate what I want including the preview.

So I wrote this script last night, well recorded it in Corel really
Sub NewDoc() ' ' Recorded 8/8/2011 ' ' Description: ' ' Dim doc1 As Document Set doc1 = CreateDocument() doc1.MasterPage.SetSize 11#, 8.5 With doc1.MasterPage .Orientation = cdrLandscape .PrintExportBackground = False .Bleed = 0# .Background = cdrPageBackgroundSolid .Color.CMYKAssign 0, 0, 0, 5 End WithEnd Sub
Mainly used to open a new document and make the layout background solid and non printable. I really like this feature since I work with the color white a lot, however I could not find any setting to start new documents with anyway. The macro creates a new doc and changes the layout setting to what I like, but when i run it with no documents open, the only menus i get are File View Tools.

I'm surprised that a lot of "application data" seems to be stored under the Program Files Folder. I thought this was a no-no? I'm particularly thinking of :
C:Program FilesCorelCorelDRAW Graphics Suite X6Custom Data
C:Program FilesCorelCorelDRAW Graphics Suite X6DrawCustomMediaStrokes
C:Program FilesCorelCorelDRAW Graphics Suite X6DrawGMS
C:Program FilesCorelCorelDRAW Graphics Suite X6DrawPresets
C:Program FilesCorelCorelDRAW Graphics Suite X6DrawWorkspace
C:Program FilesCorelCorelDRAW Graphics Suite X6Programs64Addons
Is there anyway to move the default locations, perhaps by a registry hack? I'd like to move it, at least to the AppData folder or even to another drive where it is easier to backup/make changes.

When I hit CTRL+D, CorelDRAW duplicates the currently selected objects.
The first time I do this after installation, CD asks me for a default duplicate distance.
I now want to change this default offset values. How can I do this? I can't find any option to change the default values.
