CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X5 :: Selecting Artistic Media

Jun 5, 2011

Draw just crashed as I was selecting different artistic media for the background of an image.I had opened the file by double clicking it... it was just the start of a simple rollover which just contained text and a squiggle with an arrow property at one end of the squiggle.

The foreground and squiggle are in the foreground on a layer.  it has a linear gradient fill. going sideways.  The text is a custom true type font called "Comic Book Commando" which I haven't had any trouble with.

In a separate layer, I had a simple short horizontal line that I was trying out different artistic media with.  It's just a swipe that's pretty much horizontal.  I laid it down with the "Artistic Media" brush that I selected from the toolbar which I have parked at the left vertically.I had the horizontal line selected with the regular picker tool.  I have the artistic docker open on the right side beside the line of colours palette at the far right of the window.

I clicked on each artistic media types all the way down the list... and along the way I made 4 duplicates of the simple line and put them into separate layers that I then turned off the visibility and turned off the printing.

At the point Draw crashed, I had the simple line selected, and I clicked on the last of the paintbrush style artistic media from the docker (the ones with the paintbrush icon beside them)... crash.

The drawing is very simple.  Basically, I was just going through the different artistic media options.  I had a pdf open, a file explorer, and one IE browser window... none of these other programs were doing anything 'active' at the time.

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X5 :: Fill Artistic Media Line?

Jun 5, 2012

I create some curves with freehand or 3point curve or else (image on the left). Then I use the artistic media docker to convert it to artistic media. But the artistic media fill is empty.

So I right click on black to fill it, but it fill between the first and last node (image right). Weird.

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X5 :: Can't Adjust Thickness Of Artistic Media Stroke More Precisely?

May 17, 2013

When I go to change the thickness of an artistic  media stroke, it jumps up from .045 to .095 or down  to 0.3, or similar sorts of jumps in either direction,  when I want to make finer adjustments than that. I'm  surprised that a program that has so many options  and precise ways of doing things wouldn't allow that.  Is there no way to accomplish that?

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X5 :: Apply Transparency To A Stroke Made By Artistic Media?

Jun 6, 2011

Can you apply tranparency to a stroke made by artistic media? his seems like it should be possible... I've been told to use the transparency tool for my type of transparency needs... but I can't find a way to get this to work.  It would be handy... in PS, you just adjust the transparency slider for the object or layer.  In Draw, how is this done specifically for an artistic media brush stroke?

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X5 :: Force Artistic Text Inside A Shape?

Jul 30, 2011

I've got a bunch of filled ellipses scattered around a drawing, and I want to place numbers & symbols inside these shapes. But whenever I choose the text tool and click inside the shape Corel is 'automatically assuming' that I want to format as paragraph text, and then it's all over. The only way I can 'escape' the paragraph formatting is to delete the shape & start over.

Is there any way I can temporarily-disable paragraph text, or force the characters to be artistic text?

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite 12 :: Leading (line Spacing) Between Lines Of Artistic Text With Different Font Sizes

Jul 14, 2007

through some difficulty I'm having in getting the leading (ie, line spacing) I want with artistic text, in CorelDraw 12?  I have three lines of text, the first line of which has a font size of 20 pt, and the second and third lines having a font size of 13 pt.  The default leading is greater between the first and second lines than between the second and third -- probably due to the font size difference.  I would like to make the leading equal for all lines, regardless of font size, but can't figure out how to do that.   "Format Text - Spacing - Lines" seems to offer leading only in relation to character height -- which automatically makes the leading between the first and second line larger (due to the larger font size used in the first line) than it is between the subsequent lines.

CorelDRAW X5 :: Converting Lines To Artistic Media

Oct 7, 2011

I've imported a logo to Corel Draw. The logo has several simple polylines. I'd like to convert them into artistic media in order to simulate calligraphic or hand made looking strokes. I pick the polyline, then I select Artistic Media from Effects menu. Then CD shows me the Default Strokes in a side docker window. I select any stroke.

The polyline changes, but I can't modify the stroke width spinner. Is there another method to convert lines to artistic media without redraw them over.

CorelDRAW X6 :: Artistic Media Objects Changes Color Back?

Jun 6, 2013

1. Artistic Media tool must draw in color! That's why we call it "Artistic" - first choose color, and then draw. It is natural.

2. After the object was created and COLORED by me, everything was fine, I try to reduce the size of the work and realize that I was forgot to mark "Scale stroke with object" option and there comes two problems:

2.1. I can't select multiple AMT-objects and change this COMMON option for them.

2.2. When I change this option FOR EVERY SINGLE OBJECT I previously made, it turns strokes back to black color!

And now comes the third and fourth problems:

3. Now I must SELECT OBJECTS ONE-BY-ONE AGAIN to re-color them!

4. And I have to remember every color for every stroke?!

CorelDRAW X6 :: Using Custom Spray Can Shapes From Paint In Artistic Media?

Jun 20, 2012

Is there a way to use some of the pre-loaded brushes from Paint in Draw?

My list of  pre-loaded brushes in DRAW is much shorter than the list in Paint. I'm specifically hoping to be able to use this brush in my Artistic Media in DRAW. Or do I need to create a new brush in DRAW? I would prefer not to have to work in Paint at all.

I just need a spray can that just sprays dots in DRAW (instead of the clipart type images that are part of the default).

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X5 :: Artistic Text Changing To Paragraph Text When Copy And Pasted To Another Document?

Jun 4, 2012

In the last 2 days Corel has decided to start changing Artistic Text to Paragraph Text when I copy & paste it across documents, completely changing the font, size & colour of what I am copying.

I've just done a factory reset & it's still doing it.
 
I don't recall doing anything that would change a setting.

The text I am copy & pasting are disclaimers that are all set on 1 document & I copy & paste them to a proof as needed.

I find it extremely annoying to have to Ungroup named groups and then regroup and rename them in order to do a multiple selection of group members. I find I'm constantly ungrouping and regrouping in order to select/edit.

Note that the multiple items are often not the same type of object (e.g., text, line, shape, etc.).
