CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X6 :: How To Delete Multiple / Overlapped Object
Oct 24, 2012
A customer brought me some DWG plans, five files' worth. He wants pricing on cutting it out of wood. The cutting part won't take long, but fixing the file will. I could see that there were multiple lines because some lines were thicker.When I select one of the thicker lines and delete it, it's gone. So I knew there wasn't a second line below it. Then I tried Ctrl-K, to break apart the curve. Wow, some of the lines had 23 copies! So I would hold Ctrl, de-select one of the lines, then hit the Delete key to erase the other 22. This will take a lot of time to clean up like this. Do you know of an easier way to remove these excess curves?

I saved up for several months to buy a full version to replace my student version, however now I have the full version it seems to lack a feature that is vital to the work I am creating.
in student I can right click add node to existing line and right click add a second node to the same line then right click anywhere on the segment and right click delete.......... I can't do this in the full version as delete is grayed out.
I have to repeat step one and two and then right click on each new node and break apart THEN zoom in so I can see the node close up and click on it to delete the segment.....could this really be correct? I have saved and waited so long to get the full version and now it will take me 5 steps to do what only took 3 in the student version....I need this to be simple as this is what I do all day so I can create designs to be laser cut... I need a method to delete segments so I can join others in very very complex organic shapes.

I have this script that basically makes a shape expand by adding an outline, conveting the outline to an object, and then welding the whole thing together.
I have the script set to execute with hotkey ctrl+numpad+
The odd thing is, when I run it once, it seems to work fine and only one object is left, but when I hold down ctrl and press numoad+ over and over again, it seems to produce a new copy of the object everytime.
I'm not sure why this is happening, but I need to get it to stop.
Sub Expand() EventsEnabled = False 'Dim vars Dim c1 As New Color Dim OrigSelection As ShapeRange Dim OrigColor As Shape Dim width1 As Double Dim height1 As Double Dim minSize As Double Dim Thickness As Double 'copy color of current selection Set OrigColor = ActiveShape If OrigColor Is Nothing Then Exit Sub If OrigColor.Fill.Type <> cdrUniformFill Then Exit Sub c1.CopyAssign OrigColor.Fill.UniformColor 'get thickness to increase by Set OrigSelection = ActiveSelectionRange OrigSelection.GetSize width1, height1 If width1 <= height1 Then minSize = width1 If width1 > height1 Then minSize = height1 Thickness = minSize * 0.035 OrigSelection.SetOutlineProperties Color:=CreateRGBColor(0, 0, 0) OrigSelection.SetOutlineProperties Thickness, ScaleWithShape:=True 'weld Dim s1 As Shape Set s1 = OrigSelection(1).Outline.ConvertToObject Dim s2 As Shape Set s2 = s1.Weld(OrigSelection(1), True, True) 'auto reduce 's2.Curve.Nodes.All.AutoReduce 0.001 's2.Fill.ApplyUniformFill c1 'delete remnants OrigSelection.Delete s1.Delete 'OrigColor.Delete EventsEnabled = TrueEnd Sub

How do you get rid of a lens effect? I've looked throughout the program and cannot find how to get rid of the stupid lens. I want the object to be solid.

Is there a way to exclude single attributes from being defined in a object style? As example: i want to define an outline that does not change width of the objects, but everything else.
There is a small tick box right of every attribute with help text "None this object attribute is not defined by a custom style" but i can not mark it. My feeling is, that i need to switch on this tick box to get the result i need, but i can not. When i click on it, it just gives me a greyed out "Revert". When i try to make child styles, there is a way to break the connection to parent style with these tick boxes, but no luck.
Is it a bug? I tried it with X6, X6.1 and X6.2

I recently had to buy a new computer and re-install CorelDraw X5. I've been using the software for about 3 years now to run a laser engraver, so I'm not new to dealing with vectors. For some reason though when I draw something like a square, click "convert to curves", then right click the segment I was to delete, the delete option is grayed out and the only thing I can do is add a node. I'm not too sure what I'm doing wrong or if it's a setting somewhere they didn't get checked off when I installed the software.

With the code below, I can delete off-page objects...as long as they are assigned the Desktop layer. If there is no object on that layer, I want a warning box to pop up stating so. How can I do this? I imagine that I'll need If then statement something like 'If .....objects on layer Desktop <0 then pop up warning message box, end if.

I need to find a way to cut the shape of one object out of another object. In the above photo I need to be able to print the black crosses without the printer printing the white ink under them (you can see where the black ink is not adhering to the white ink very well).

I have a logo which appears in the footers of all of our technical manuals. Word recognizes it as a picture, and so our printer prints it in color, not black and white, so we are charged for the color copies.
I have exhausted my options in Word, and have been trying to create it as a TrueType font in DRAW, so word just thinks it's a symbol, not a picture.
The only file I have of the logo is a .bmp, so I've been tracing it to get it into vector form to manipulate. However, after all of my welding, combining, front minus back ect. ect. ect., I still can't get it down to the "1 object" requirement to make it a font.
Here's the logo:

I have a series of images that have been designed - very basic shapes (a straight vertical line with a ball on top in which ascending numbers are placed in each one. So effectively each image is made up of 3 seperate parts and look like numbered lollipops. Each of these images are currently evenly spaced apart and formatted so the text is all properly aligned and sized etc - I would like to be able to copy certain groups of these images and paste them into a new working document which is fine, but I then need to somehow re-space them out to scale once they've been pasted in. So for example i have copied them in and they are 20mm apart to each other (as per my original drawing that i copied from) - is there a way of then altering this spacing so that for example so that they are all 33mm apart but still retail the original formatting properties so they are not stretched etc?

When I create a shape, be it a rectangle or a polygon and choose (right click) "Frame Type">Create Empty Text Frame" and select 2 columns from the "Column settings" dialogue box, the columns are never the same size! Is it me, my computer, or a bug?

In some programs I am able to type in 20 or more names and send them to the cutter as one file. I would type a name and then keep adding names in the list and then at the machine I would run one name at a time. Can Corel x5 do this?

I'm working with drawings that have (for example) 1,000 little circles with diameter 1.5mm. I'd like to resize all of them to, say, 2.0mm but I don't want to scale them as this will affect their distance from each other.
Macros: I have tried recording the adjustments on one object but I'm unable to run the macro on another - the macro errors out.
Find/Replace objects: I don't see any options involving object dimensions (although I can "Find All" of my objects by shape or fill).

I wish to align a text like this at an oval shape. The field of the text body does align at all - which I can understand. Using the grafic text, it aligns directly on/ over the outline of the oval shape. But I won't have the whole text in a round - I just want to have the paragraph's left side to be aligned/ positioned at the outer shape of the oval.

Im trying to cut out the centre of the letter R below. Normally I break curve apart, select the centre, and trim it from the outer. I can then select the centre piece and remove it. As you can see, this has worked with the letters P & O. When I do it with the R it seems to have worked, to the point where I can even select the centre and remove it, but when I put it back over a coloured background, it is still white.

I just upgraded to X5 the other day and started working with it. All seemed pretty normal until I drew a rectangle with a hairline and no fill. I typed in some text and went to click off of it to start a separate line of text only to find out when clicking inside this shape, and any other shape I made, it would select the shape.
