I just wrote about the crash on scroll. Now when I try to open the file draw goes through the motions of opening it and end up with an untitled document. The entire file has been destroyed. I've had this kind of trouble before but not since I upgraded from Windows XP to Windows 7. It makes Draw almost impossible to use since any action even saving might trigger a crash and with the crash comes the possibility that the file is lost. Does this behaviour was specifically addressed and fixed with any of the service packs? I'm still using the original build.
When loading a previously saved item the preview shows the "complete job lot" however when you load the item it does not load the full drawing and is missing approx 3 hrs of work.
how to load the full document, I have tried the recovery manager which only loads the part document
Below is a picture of the preview working fine
Below is a picture of CAD not loading the full document up
How to plot (draw) the xy data saved in a CSV file?
I’m not sure if there is an enhanced workflow to plot the xy coordinates saved in an CSV file in the AutoCAD 2012.
I found the approach below in the web ---------- 1.Open the Excel file. 2. Save it as a .CSV file (comma separated values). 3. Open the .CSV file in notepad, add two lines at the top:
._multiple ._point
4. Then save this file with a .SCR file extension. 5. In AutoCAD run the ._Script command, and pick the .SCR file above.
I recently acquired the 5DMkIII and after I import the RAW images into LR 4.3RC, LR will, apparently randomly, divide an image into rectangles and color it with psychodelic colors. Out of about 700 images from my last shoot, it has only happened to 3 or 4, so far. But it can happen immediately upon import or on a subsequent viewing/developing of the images. It seems to happen at the time I click on the thumbnail to view or edit the image.I have inserted a sample. This is an image of a hawk on a post (the bird is in the center of the image). Theoretically, I can reimport the image from the CF card and hope it doesn't happen again (assuming I haven't reformated the card). Is this an issue with the camera or LR? It began happening on the Mark III images. I've used 7D, 40D, and XT before this with no problem.
have been trying to change the color of some skin, by painting with mode in Color and opacity 50%. the problem is that along with the new color, the old texture is replaced! I am using just a brush and sampling very frequently.
We've written an Inventor AddIn that creates a ClientFeature in a part document using one or more NonParametricBaseFeature objects that get force-fed with the geometry we compute (through a TransientBRep object). The result of this is one solid. So far, this works well enough.
However, we've recently encountered a problem with drawings based on part documents like that: Dimensions (measures) added to the drawing get deleted when the NonParametricBaseFeature gets replaced by a new one, even if the two have the same topology or are, in fact, geometrically identical. I assume this is because the new feature has no relation to the original one and there is basically no way the drawing can know what geometry the dimension is referring to. So far, we assumed the references to geometry in a part document would be something like Solid(0).Face(0).Edge(0) etc, but this doesn't seem to be the case. Otherwise, replacing the feature with a new one that is identical would not destroy these references.
I would like to achieve the following: Through the use of ModelingEvents.OnClientFeatureDoubleClick our ClientFeature gets replaced by an updated version and all drawings referencing this feature get updated accordingly with all dimensions intact, as long as the changes only affect geometry and the topology stays the same.
PS: Currently we're working with Inventor 2013 and 2014, using the .NET API in C#.
How accurate is the Document Properties information. I have several files that report containing various fonts only I can't find the fonts in the documents. What's the best way of locating particular fonts within documents. The Find dialogue is tedious to use given that we need to manually move from one page to another. Is there an alternative?
is this possible to make it default for the all the documents of coreldraw something like gray tone despite of white. option existed in the options command but i have to go and has to choose the color. Its not like that, at once by default that white color is changed to the gray tint.
Is there a way to increase the number of documents shown in the Windows menu? Sometimes I work with more than 9 docs and it's a pain navigating to and from "More..."
I have several multi-page X6 documents, all with the same layout (chapters of a booklet), which I would like to combine into one document. Is there an easy way to do this?
When working on a document with facing pages, with previous versions of CorelDraw htting the page up or page down keys on the keyboard would change to the next set of pages.
With Draw X5, you have to hit page up or page down twice to switch to the next set of pages.
Not a huge deal to hit it twice now, but is there a way to set X5 to the previous behavior where with facing pages one page down would take you from page set 1-2 to 3-4?
When trying to open a coreldraw document sent to me containing fonts that I do not have, I cannot seem to open only as curves and it always wants to replace missing fonts. I am sure I could do this with X3, but not X5.
I just want to import as curves and not substitute fonts.
When copying text from web pages to CDX6 it will often crash on paste. A workaround is to copy to Word first but I'd rather CDR worked properly. Is there anything I could look at within CDR to stop this from happening?
I use CorelDRAW X4 exclusively (90%) for Laser work. I have a Page saved as Laser Page. It use to open with a 24 x 12 page area and Horizontal and vertical guidelines in place. It is set to "show guidelines."
However, every time I open a new document, the page layout and guidelines are not there. I always have to rebuild the page and add the guidelines. What has changed so that all I get is a blank page anymore? Or how to reestablish my defaults? I have re-saved it as my new default countless times but nothing sticks. It's a pain to have to always reestablish the layout I want to work with..
I have a problem with printing in X5. All the documents I've worked in X4when I print the X5 have a problem with the colors, they are not the same with X4.
We have an issue happening on many of the documents that we have that include a transparency or gradient. We did not have these issues in Draw12. (but did have printing issues)
1st issue: Opening these gradients will randomly flip them. Like so:
The bottom image is correct. Now when we print them from Corel Draw X5 to either of our printers (Bizhub C250, or Biizhub C360ps) we get the following (this is created from the same master file, same settings):
Notice the lens effect color replacement is gone, and the bottom gradient is barely visible, the top one not working at all.
Same document, saved to 12 and printed the same way:
Both sent with identical printers settings, same print driver, and as close as possible settings in the X5 and Draw 12 dialog print boxes.
I will create artwork in Corel Draw, save it and then export some elements out to another format.
Then I try to close the drawing and exit.
CANNOT DO EITHER.
I get an error that says 'Some of the documents could not be closed because some tasks..background. See status bar for....'
What the heck is going on here? I cannot close the file. I cannot exit the program. The only way to get out of Corel Draw is to end the program through Task Manager.
This update is bad news. I don't know how to go back to 6.1.
I noticed over the last few days that Corel was taking a while to open files. Like, if I had one open already it was usually fast enough, but if Corel wasn't open I'd get an error from the file manager I use saying it couldn't execute the program. Every time though, if I closed CorelDraw, and open a new instance of the program I'd be fine again.
Today has been different. Today I've had to restart corel practically every time I've tried to open a document. A few minutes ago I couldn't even get corel to open.
Right now where I'm at: I can open corel, I can change workspaces, but I can't open any file or even a 'new blank document' It freezes/hangs with the processing bar at about 80 %.
I'm going to try a restore point. I brag about how stable my system is, this makes no sense, I don't think it is a corel problem, I've noticed a ton of updates from Windows starting middle of last week. I just figured it would work itself out. I'll post every step I take. Oh, and by the way, I can open PhotoPaint Just fine.
I've removed update KB2853952 - Improvement only in that I can open corel, but can't open a new document or an existing document. I've done an F8 while starting up Corel Draw and reset to factory specs. No change. Deleted all 10,006 items in my temp folder. No change. System restore back to 9/10/2013 worked. Corel functions as expected.
Current System: i3 3.07ghz, 3gb ram, Windows 7 32 bit with all updates and X6

I"ve just recently upgraded to CDGraphics Suite X5 (from 12), along with Windows 7 and M.Office 2010. When trying to export jpg's I've got 2 problems:
a) Jpg files that I"m now exporting seem to have so many more "options" for exporting and are automatically exporting colours as CMYK. Some of the software programs that I use (for programming digital signage) require jpg files in RGB. Is there a way to set this as a default instead of having to change this everytime I export? (note that I have "checked" the embed colour profile option for my US Web Coated Pantones).
b) The default for exporting is also set at "custom" - should I always be changing this to either medium or large, or can I just leave it at custom. Often I am just emailing jpg's for approval purposes, so I don't always need large file sizes. Does custom set it to the largest possible file size?
I found a tab at the top of the export window that says "Load Presets" and lists for example "low quality jpg.xml" what is this for?
c) when I look at my jpg files in my documents folders they appear "locked" with a little lock on them. Old jpg files created in CD12 don't have this little "lock" icon on them. I have checked the properties and see that these files give full access for modification etc, so I can't figure out why they may be locked.
All old saved files open OK, last 2 Days all saved files cannot open, but image is on thumbnail tried importing...says cannot import empty file..what have i done?
I have several book cover designs that I've been working on in CorelDraw saved as CDRs, but now when I go to open them, they open as CDRs in Corel Photo Paint, I don't understand why? I've tried the Open from File Menu and then Save As CDR , but it doesn't work either. Is it possible I clicked on something I shouldn't have? Also, I need to separate the background from one of the designs in bitmap, the image is as if its all grouped together and won't ungroup or let me edit it, I did not save in layers or masks (any other way I can still try and edit it?
while working suddenly everything disappears from the monitor freezing and the file can not' be saved or recovered. The message that appears is insufficient memory. It 'a problem that often appears when I use the text or any changes to the text.
Coreldraw is a 32 Bit Windows xp professional and my pc has 3 GB RAM Intel Core Duo CPU E7400 I can't resolve this problem until now.
Is there a way to draw a helix in X3? It is not evident to me and a search does not turn it up. Alternatively, I could draw a helix in MatLab (or such) and import it, but what file format would make it manipulable in X3?
Just started playing around with X6. If I export something with spot colors to an EPS file and reimport it, the spot colors are converted to greyscale. Also happens if I open in Photoshop. RGB or CMYK works okay. I've also noticed that while EPS is an available export format, it does not appear on the import file type list even though it is set up through customization>global>filters so I am having to import it through All File Formats.
Still able to open files saved before yesterday just having problems to open recently saved files (all files since yesterday). It allows to save properly, on preview mode shows what is in the file, size of the file is correct as well. But when trying to open it opens as a blank page or is not opening at all.
Did a test- saved file with a simple objects / text only. Cant open.
plus- doesnt allow to copy & paste.
Reinstall all coreldraw package- still the same problem.
I have cdx5 (fully patched) running on a windows 7 pro x64 machine (c++, directx, updates all current) that has an issue when saving a file to a mapped network drive. The file will save error free but when you try to open the file again at a later date it gives a c++ runtime error (this application has requested the runtime to terminate in an unexpected way).
If i save the file locally then move it to the network share it seems fine. It can be opened and edited with out issue.
CDx5 needs to save to the mapped drive as the server runs onsite and offsite backups. There is a large volume of files that are changed/created daily. Saving locally and then copied to the server manually is also not an option as the user cannot be relied upon to ensure the files are copied to the server.
