I would like to know how to create the shadow effect as pointed with the red arrow, if this design is to be printed to 2 spot color (Orange 021 C and Black)
View 11 RepliesIs there some way to move the corner control points of the perspective effect grid via the arrow keys? I have hand problems and any time I need to move something very precisely I use the arrow keys, or risk hurting my hands. If not, would there be some way to do this with a macro? Also, is there some setting for it – other than having to hold down the shift and control keys while you click and drag, which is just a killer for me – that will arrange it in ways that are only symmetrical (where if you move one side the other side moves equally in the opposite direction)? As far as I can see, rectangular and freehand settings behave the same.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am trying to create a logo that looks like it is branded into a piece of wood. I created my logo, powerclipped a darker image of the wood inside, created an embossing effect with a lighter and darker version offset from the main logo. Now I would like to "roughen" it up a bit to look more natural - following the woodgrain, and more "burnt in".

Let not the one who says it can't be done interrupt the one who is doing it.
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.
I am new to corel draw. i m using corel X6. i m having one arrow image (ie) 12px width and 23px height

I tried drop shadow technique but the result is too large and inaccurate shadow. Also, I tried to create an custom artistic media brush, but the result is not as I expected. Is it out of a job that Corel can perform ?
When capturing screenshots with Corel Capture X6, the captured cursor always defaults to the Windows arrow pointer in the screenshot. For example, say you were taking a screenshot while using the Pen tool in CorelDRAW. The cursor is a fountain pen tip. In the screen shot it shows as the default Windows arrow pointer. Another example, you take a screenshot in Photo-Paint while using the Paint tool and the cursor looks like the brush you are using, but the screen shot shows it as the arrow pointer.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have been using Corel Draw primarily in my work for more than 20 years but have never taken the time to understand this....nor why on some artwork an object will move fractionally but on other artwork (specifically this time, a 20m x 10m workspace for vehicle signage) the objects move 200 or 300mm!?
I always thought this was a 'drawing precision' setting but even when I set that to 1 decimal place it doesn't seem to affect this.
I often have the need to remove the drop shadow effect. Currently what I do is to "Break Drop Shadow Group Apart" then delete it from object manager. However with other effects such as Transparency, I can simply set the Effect to None. Can this be done with Drop Shadow?

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.
How can set that an object only moves per 1 pixel increments when moving using the arrows keys?I am designing a few web banners right now and when i move objects with the arrow keys to have them placed exactly, they jump with more then 60 pixels in one go making this exercise a bit useless.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI apply a red glow on an object (rectangle) on an black background.When exported as JPEG or PDF, the red glow color faded become greyish.

This only happens in CMYK mode. When exported as RGB, it's fine.
Applying contour to a text and trying to apply a drop shadow afterwards, the drop shadow properties can not be set.
No matter what item you select in the Object Manager, the drop shadow toolbar's controls are all disabled.
PS: I just noticed this is true for the drop shadow tool in CorelDRAW X6.2 in gereral. I'm not able to edit any of the drop shadow properties.

Copy drop shadow properties is not working for me. When I click on the object to copy to, it tells me, "you did not click on an object." What do I need to do?
Edit: actually, I'm seeing that this is not working in Contour, either. And it may not be working in other effects as well, although I haven't tested those.
