CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X5 :: Mirror / Reflect About A Line But Line Is Inside Object

Jan 4, 2013

how to mirror about a line, but the line was outside the object.

I now have a need to mirror about a line but the line is partially inside the object (so after mirroring the object would be overlapped). When I select both objects and try to create the mirror, the "axis" of the reflection is simply the edge of the object, not the line.

When the line was outside, that worked simply because when you selected both objects the line brought the outside of both selected objects to that point so it simply mirrored / reflected at that point (the line). So the line was not truly acting as a point of reflection. Hope that made sense.

I think I'm about to buy Cadtools from Macromonster but I would like to know if Draw has a way of acheiving this. Hey I may find out Cadtools can't reflect when the line is inside the object.

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X5 :: How To Draw A Line Around A Object And Print

Jun 6, 2011

I have an object that I need to print . It is a cartoon man and a cartoon flag with text next to it . I have printed the whole thing without a cut and it worked fine .

But now I need to print it with the images cut out. I believe I will be able to put a contour around the font easily however the problem is putting it around the flag with man in front of it . right now it makes contours on the inside of the image. Its hard to explain ..... the flag is supposed to be white with blue and red in it . and when I printed it on a big sheet with no contour it was fine .. but now that I need to do it on its own the contour goes inside the flag because there is no rectangle shape around the flag .(no outline around flag) How do I put the rectangle around the flag as well as put a smooth contour around handyman?

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X5 :: Line Tool Can Change A Line To Dashes

Aug 15, 2011

I would like to add the effect of hand stitched thread around some of my designs. The line tool can change a line to dashes but this is a bit too uniform for hand stitching. I have seen a tutorial on doing this in Photoshop where a brush is made with a few small different length strokes. this is then spaced out and made to follow a path. how to create a hand stitch effect using X5 that looks like natural hand stitching...

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X5 :: Creating A Line On A Line

Apr 8, 2011

I'm out of practice with Corel since it has been several years since using it. I'm trying to create a point on top of a line without adding a point to an existing line but for the life of me I can't figure out how. I know I can create a new line and drag the points to where I want them on the line but I just simply want to create a point on top of the line.

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X5 :: Node / Line Editing

Mar 11, 2011

in earlier versions of draw you could move one end of line with the pick tool by moving the cursor over the end node grabbing it and moving it where ever you wanted. With x5 it seems that you must go to the node editing tool to select the node. Is there a setting I'm missing that will allow the pick tool to select node?

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X5 :: How To Draw Line Not A Curve

Feb 26, 2012

I used polyline to trace a tree trunk.  I wanted it to be just a series of line segments which I was going to export to AutoCAD and then to Sketchup.  However, each segment I drew said it was a curve.  When I exported to AutoCAD it came in as a spline.  If I convert that to lines, where I had maybe 10 lines there are now 100.

I also tried to 2 point line tool.  I started each new line from the end of the previous.  It gave me the same result.

Is there a way for me to end up with just the 10 line segments?  No spline.  No curve.  Just 10 straight lines.

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite 12 :: Defining Line Width

Jun 17, 2011

I am using CGS12 along with my Epilog laser. The Epilog treats all line-widths up to 0.003" as vector (for cutting) and anything above this as raster (subject to DPI settings).

I have been using 'Hairline' as my vector but recently hit a problem and would like to guarantee that a line defined by a label such as 'Hairline' will always be below 0.003" in width (and therefore a cut-line on the Epilog).

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X5 :: Adding New Line Styles?

Jul 14, 2012

In CDraw X5 I can choose line styles. But I would like to add some more styles (and to remove some that I never use).I only found a possibility to create new styles based on a kind of a pixel approach: A one-by-many array of single squares can be marked to be coloured of white, producing dashed lines with any kind of dash length.Also, the dash "frequency" seems to be dictated by the line width only; I do not manage to make thin dashed lines with a reasonably visible dash frequency.

However, I would like to make line consisting of other shapes, like circles, triangles, diamonds, etc., either filled or "open". Or make thin dashed lines with user-specifiec dash and space lengths that do not change when changing the line width. Is this possible?

Also, multi-colour dashes – with e.g. odd-numbered dashes in one colour and even-numbered ones in another color – might be useful.

In the current version, however, the number of dash schemes available is big enough to be confusing. Especially when the line is made relatively wide – say, 0,5 .. 1 mm or so – and I want to make more lines with the same shape, than it is difficult to find again the same shape the list of standard shapes. Is it possible to add names (or numbers, but not just running numbers!) to the shapes, so that a shape can be found again easily?

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X5 :: Line Vs Curve With Arrow On End?

Feb 12, 2011

I know this has been in Draw for a long while, but I wish they'd make the arrow tip start at the end of a curve. 

steps to reproduce:

F7, draw a curve

draw a line

change both to have an arrow on one end

change both to 16px thickness so you can see the arrow position well

This problem comes up when I'm doing a detailed diagram and I've got my arrows going around all over the place.  I need to tweek one so I convert to curve... but in doing so, the end of the arrow sticks out farther than it used to... and that forces me to change the postions and angles of possibly a few nodes.

I'd like the arrow to end at the node so there's no change in it's position when you do a convert to curves.

This is one of those... "that's not a bug, it's been around forever" type of things I know, but it should be changed IMHO.

I should mention that this is also a pain when you go in with the node edit tool when the line isn't selected and you can't see the nodes... you click around at the end, and eventually find it hiding in the center of the arrow/triangle part.

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X5 :: Text Sizing And Line Spacing?

Jul 14, 2011

I recently purchased Graphics Suite X5 and find I'm having difficulty in getting an accurate sizing to my text height.  When I set the text height to be 3" and then start typing, the letter height comes back to me around 2 1/8".  I did find another place to set the height but that is only after I finish my lettering. How to resolve this so I don't re-invent the wheel each time I set the lettering to my designs?

I am also having some difficulty with line spacing.  I need line space in inches and the software seems to be set on a pt setting with no way to change it to inches.

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X6 :: Vector And Raster Line Width Changes?

Jun 11, 2012

I use and really like Corel Draw X3 (almost 3 years) and will keep that version on one P4 computer that runs win xp pro 32 bit.

X3 has been a great version that never crashes but it is getting slow as I increase the number of objects and symbols in my files.  I have a new comp with win 7 pro 64 bit running CDraw X6 and the latest epilog 64 bit driver for my mini 24.  I have been using the new X6 for 3 days .

In X3 a hairline or .001 is a vector cut.  A line width of .005 and above are raster lines and they work well in my Epilog mini 24.  I am using a 1.5" diam lens.  In X6 a .005 line will not raster but only vectors.  If I change it to .006 it becomes a raster line and will engrave OK.

The big Question:

Is there a way to make .005  raster as it did in X3?  I have hundreds of files that are all .005 line width. I don't mind changing them but would rather not.

Could this change be because of the latest Epilog 64 bit driver that I am using with win 7 pro?  Almost all my files have oddles of very fine detail (.005) and they would look a bit muddy changing the line width to .006.
