CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X5 :: Mesh Warp Tool - Using To Fix Distortion In Photos

Dec 30, 2011

I'm trying to recreate some vintage packaging artwork in CorelDraw. I've imported my reference material to a bottom layer and am recreating the text and graphics on layers above it. The reference photos I have been supplied with have a number of problems and most I have been able to fix in PhotoPaint. (Horizontal and vertical shear distortion). However, the 'fish-eye' distortion created by the camera lens is proving difficult to surmount. I have tried using the Mesh Warp tool but the ridiculously small workspace window it generates makes it impossible to render accurate changes to the image. Is there a way to coax PhotoPaint to create a larger working space to increase its accuracy.

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X6 :: Envelope / Warp Or Pincushion Adjustments For Bitmaps?

Sep 16, 2013

What I want to do is something like the envelope tool, but actually stretch an image from the center-points (kind of like the old pincushion settings in a CRT monitor):

I played around with the mesh warp tool, but that thing seems nearly impossible to fine tune even when I use the magnifier.

The tool "Warp Brush"  would probably work with some delicacy, but seems to be exclusive to Paint Shop Pro, and the smear tool obviously will not work...

Paint Shop Pro :: Edit Photo Using Mesh Warp Tool?

Jun 23, 2012

I am trying to edit a photo using the mesh warp tool. I have it exactly as I want it, but when I go to apply it, every part of the photo I have warped gets deleted and I just get the white background underneath. I have looked online for guides and videos but when they apply their changes their edits stay exactly the same!

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 X6 :: Mesh Fill To Bitmap Colour Shift?

May 2, 2012

Mesh Fill.cdr

In X5 when converting a cmyk meshfill to cmyk bitmap there is often an unacceptable shift in colour.

The only workaround I have found to maintain cmyk values is to export mesh fill as pdf and then save as bitmap in Acrobat.

Does same behaviour occurs in X6? Sample file attached.

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X6 :: Apply Mesh Fill Effect To Circular Vector

Jun 5, 2012

1. First question: I need to apply Mesh Fill effect to a circular vector (ring) which was built with the Combine command (Ctrl + L), but Mesh Fill is not allowed for objects combined. Is there any alternative for this?

2. Second question: How to make that mesh nodes has the circular shape of the figure (in this case, a ring)?(By clicking on the object, it creates a mesh grid and edit the nodes to obtain a circular form is very laborious and the result is not satisfactory).

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X6 :: Transforming Faces In Photos

One of the very early versions of Corel Photopaint? allowed me to transform  a face from one person to another, in that it created a whole bunch of intermediate pictures and when completed it played that shifting in a motion form, from one face to the other. Is this facility to transform still available in X6?

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X5 :: Unable To Edit Bitmaps / Photos

Jan 27, 2012

I have recently upgraded from X4 to X5 and while when I first installed it I was able to click on a bitmap and get CorelPhotoPaint to launch - it now says Failure to launch server application.  I have tried the F8 tip while opening both Paint & Draw, repairing the installation (from both the hard drive and the disk), and removing and reinstalling.  I used to have X4 and even X3 on my system but have removed both of those versions.  And yes, I have associated the files although within Corel the ticked boxes do not seem to stay put.

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X6 :: Transformations Tool (Alt F10)

Apr 17, 2012

I have been using CorelDraw X6 for a couple of days now (Trial version) on a Windows 7 v32 machine.  I noticed a bug in the transformation tool (Alt F10).  Every time that I input a number or value on the transformation box and then press enter on my keyboard it does not change the size of my object.  The only way to make it work is inputting the value and then press the apply key (I had have no problems in the pass inputting values and then changing by pressing enter on my keyboard in CorelDraw X5  whatsoever.

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite 12 :: Bulk Edit Photos By Pixel Size?

Apr 27, 2013

Is there a way to bulk edit photos by pixel size? I'm going through an eBay nightmare where the minimum pixel size on the longest side will need to be 500. I have thousands of images. First: will corel 12 sort images by pixel dimensions? or is there a program somewhere that will? Second: can I then take the smaller images and bulk resample them to 500 pixels on the longest side?

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X3 :: How To Use Interactive Connector Tool

Apr 8, 2013

Just checking thru all the stuff that I never got around to using and stumbled across the Interactive Connector Tool (ICT).  However, when I try to use it, I can only get one end of the connection to actually latch onto an object.  To fix the other end to another object, I apparently would have to make it the active object so that I could connect to - or even see - the nodes.  But when I tried selecting both objects, the 2nd (connect to) object lost focus on my selecting the node of the connect from object with the ICT.  Each time I end up with a line that is fixed to a point on the background as the connect to point and the connect from object on the other end.

The brush tool is no longer working - when I select on any of the brush tools, spray, Art burhs, spray , line, marker etc, they will not work. When I select the drop down nothing is listed.

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X3 :: Level Equalization Tool

Apr 15, 2013

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.
