I tried to replicate the background shown in this screenshot in CorelDRAW X6, but had trouble making the gradient, with orange on top then both green and blue beneath. While I can make the gradient use three colors, they are in a line, unlike the screenshot where they are next the each other both horizontally and vertically.
[gradient tool] I double-clicked the colour stop , but the colour swatch doesn't come outI hv tried a couple of times in CS 5 and also CS 6.

i'm trying to use the gradient tool. im adding gradients to sold colour shape jpg's. for instance i have a jpeg that is a green square.
i want to use the Graditent tool to give a gradient effect to my jpeg, however when i apply a gradient it is always grayscale, no matter what colour the image! can this be changed to colour? if so how?
in other words, is it possible to make my green square have a green gradient effect?
I've downloaded an EPS from Shutterstock with a series of icons that look like buttons and would like to change the colour breakdown, but keep the shading/ button 'look'. When I try to select a different colour breakdown of blue it turns grey and solid.

The problem is every time I do this the image loses its sharpness (using magic wand, highlighting the area and filling a gradient and other similar techniques)
How can you get a big colour wheel selector when adjusting your gradient?
Atm all I have is a silly little bar, and you can't get a great variety of colours from that.
Recently, I started using Adobe Illustrator and watched many tutorials for the basics of it (coming from Photoshop) but one thing that I'm not too comfortable with is the gradient tool in Illustrator compared to the one in Photoshop.
I keep reading that the only way to adjust the colours is to either use the colours in the swatches or the mini colour slider but is there a way to choose the colours like you can in Photoshop?
I would like to know how to change the colour of a single layered, single coloured gradient (foreground to transparent) image. There is nothing more to it than that other than I don't want to use the hue/saturation adjustment as it's hard to get a specific colour.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI'm looking for a way to search for a PMS colour in coreldraw X6. When I open the fill command, I'm presented with a number of different ways to choose a colour, but I cannot search for one. I have the pantone colour 174U and I'd like to be able to type it in and have it show. I do not know the cmky, or rgb values. I can view all kinds of pantone systems, but they are not in numerical order so I can't search that way either. Is there some area I'm missing that lets me type in the 174U and it shows up?

When using Publish to PDF we need to keep our name on the colour CutContour. This works perfect on three pc's but on one pc, name is CutContour in Corel but on PDF it is renamed to C0 M100 Y100 K1. As I mentioned it works perfect on 3 other machines. In PDF settings I use Native colour. I guess it must be in PDF settings under colour. But settings seems to be the same.
Is it possible to apply a gradient to a line? I was able to create the line below using the drawing tools in MS Excel and was hoping to do the same in CorelDraw X6, however, I did not see any outline color gradient options.

My friend who has a digital printer, once printed one of my designs but there were stripes (like you have when there's little ink in a printer) only in gradient filled areas When i fill a shape with gradient colors, i also see these stripes on my screen (when i look very close) in CD and also in pdf when i export the file. What can i do?

Is there any way for me to export my conical gradient created in X6 to PDF and Illustrator without it being distorted? I would like it to look clean and smooth as it looks in Corel.
I am uploading my CDR file the way I would like it to remain. I have also uploaded the output I keep getting when I export it to PDF.
Is there a way to make "White" gradient? All of the other colors work as they should but if I chose white gradient of 30% it still shows up as 100% white. Meaning I can see no difference in my image.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'd like to ask if it is possible to change colour of outline according to filling. I've traced the raster picture (outline tracing) and there is no outline and the picture seems to be disturbed by tiny white lines. So I'd add hair outline and I'd like to have the same colour of the outline as is the object. Is there any function what is able change it at once and all at the same time?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI recently upgraded form corel 12 to corel x5. I used a specific colour palette for my printer. when i load up the documents used in corel 12 into corel x5 the colours revert to rgb or cmyk of a slightly different colour?
I need my old documents to open the same as they did in corel 12?
I've recently converted from X3 to X5 and I'm having multiple problems with colors, I'm running the current program on windows 7:
1. X5 is not remembering the colors on my X3 files, even though I have the custom palette open in X5 it's still coming up as CMYK when I look at the colors on the X3 file. Is this something to do with embedding color profiles on X3? If so how is this done? on X5 it's as simple as ticking a box when saving as. I've also noticed my custom palette is saved as .cpl file and the default for X5 is .xml, although X5 has opened up the .cpl file and it has converted it to an .xml file.
2. When printing an X3 eps file it seems to come out a different color to a X5 eps. This made me think that this must be due to color settings when converting the file to an eps, but the same thing happens with pdfs. Why should a X3 eps / pdf be printing differently to an X5 eps / pdf?
Is it possible to create a gradient without the one on the top. See the x on the image.

Let's say I have a square with a gradient fill of 30% gray to white. I have a background that I have imported to make the paper look old and weathered. If I place this background behind the gradient filled square, the square looks grayish and will print this way. Instead what I want is for the gradient filled square to show the color of the background rather than gray.
If I print the old and weathered background first and then run the paper through the printer again with the gradient filled square, it has the effect I want. Is there a way to do get this effect without having to print the background first and then print it again?
when I select some objects (could be in same layer or in diff layers), then go to lens docker and apply a 50% transparency, the areas of all the objects are changed to greyscale.
I can use the transparency tool and drag across for multiple objects and the transparency works great, but when i want to apply the same transparency to the whole thing (using the layer docker), it messes up.
... and when you go Ctrl-z to undo the changes, the lens docker doesn't update it's value to suit what the transparency has been undone to... so it's all whacked up.
I'm so sick of posting bugs. It feels like the functionality isn't tested very well at all.
I have found macro's to change specific RGB values to different specific values within a Corel file. I have not been successful in finding a solution on applying the same sort of change across multiple files. i.e. All Corel files within a folder will search for specific RGB's that I`ve told it to change to other specific RGB's.
I know that Corel has a macro that accomplishes a batch process where it will convert files to different file types.
Do you know if it is possible to use two or more colors with the artistic media brush without having to use the mesh fill .

I'm trying to print a document that has colour in it and when it comes out of the printer it prints in black and white. I'm not sure what the issue is or what I am missing.
My printer is Canon iR-ADV C5030/5035 UFR II.
A lot of the time I like bullets to be a different colour to their following text. In past versions you could highlight the bullet and pick a colour from the palette. You had to do it with each individual bullet which was a pain, but it could be done. Now if you highlight a bullet and then click a colour, nothing happens. I was hoping that this might be because they'd added a function to choose bullet colour elsewhere (such as in the Bullets window), but apparently not.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI've been using Corel X4 extensively for the last year to create screenprint designs for the company I now work for. Although some of my designs are extremely complex, they are straight 1-5 colors, which I seperate for printing myself.
My boss has purchased RIP software which I have a vague knowledge of using, however, I have no clue how to actually create the design that would need a halftone print and therefore, have never used the expensive RIP software to print with.
I want to know if is there any soft eraser, like brushes, with gradient around the center point of eraser, like in Photoshop.
View 7 Replies View RelatedWe are just in the process of setting up Corel X6 for deployment in our office and we are trying to get a handle on the colour settings. We have upgraded from CD11 which had very little in the way of colour management and so we are somewhat inexperienced in how to set up.
We have two production printers an OKI 821 and a Ricoh C820DN which we print to using PCL drivers. We believe that we therefore need to use RGB as our colour mode and use an ICC profile for each printer for colour correction with colour management switched off on the driver. Is this correct? We've had a try this afternoon and the colours on the prints differ greatly from the display (which has been profiled using an xrite i1pro calibrator). They also differ from each other.
The monitor profile is set as the device profile in the windows colour system, and we are using that as our engine in corel.
Is it possible to transfer a colour pallet from X3 to X5?
