CorelDRAW X6 :: Vignette Transparency No Longer Working In Photo Paint
Apr 9, 2012
I am running the 32 bit trial of X6 and the transparent vignette bitmap effect no longer works. I have converted the bitmap to CMYK transparent and back to not transparent several times in CorelDraw X6 and it still does not work. I have event tried making the bitmap an RGB transparent background and it still does not work.
Then when I click "Edit Bitmap..." it DOES open as a bitmap with a transparent background but the vignette function in Photo-Paint X6 does not work with the transparency either. It forces a background color. There is no longer an easy way to fade the edges of a photo.
Why do you always manage to break stuff that was working Corel?

I do a LOT of photo editing while using CorelDraw X6. It was really handy to launch the photo editor with the icon. How can I get it to launch, again?

I only looked at a few photos so I could be premature in my assessment (and I don't have time to hunt down a fix list if one exits), but it appears the v2012 exposure (and other basic settings) no longer interferes with the lens vignette correction. In other words the lens vignetting takes priority over all other adjustments, as it should.

I open a GIF that has a transparent background, resize it and save it back. At no time is there any prompt re transparency but it no longer has a transparent background. Why is that? And, how do I ensure that transparency is maintained?

I can't find "Lock Transparency" in X5.
1. It's not the Lock button on the Objects docker.
2. It's not the wine glass shown.
I don't really need it but it would be nice to have such a button. I can mimic it by "Create Mask from Object". That works in the same way. I'm just wondering if Lock Transparency got lost forever.

A graphic exported in Draw & PP in X4 as a .png works fine.
The same graphic copied & pasted into Draw or PP in X6 does not.Repeatable 100%...The eyedriopper selection of the transp[arent color seems to pick up the right color, but the output presents like a .jpg. Viewed in IE9, Firefox & Chrome with same results.

Why is the Transparency command window in the Clone Tool property bar so narrow? By comparison, the window for the Feather command next to it is twice the size. The reason for the moan is because my display is set to 110% as I like to see slightly larger text but I've had to go down to 100% because I can only see one complete digit in that tiny little window.
Is there any way to make it a touch wider so I can see two digits without a problem?
Display set to 1900 x 1200 on 32-bit XP.

I can add a vignette to a layer but how do I make a layer just for the vignette? I want to treat the vignette layer just like an adjustment layer and be able to return to it for modification.

I want to send a pdf of a project containing a vignette to a commercial printer. Here's the challenge:creating a vignette (I can do this with layers with a gradient from black to transparent)
saving the picture as a pdf
here's the tricky part defining the black as CYMK 40 30 30 100 (not just a straight RGB to CYMK 0 0 0 100 mapping) to give a dark black when printed by a commercial printerPhotoshop express won't export pdfs Paintshop won't either Photoshop will, Will paint.net??
I attach a rough example to show what I mean.

Photos adjusted using Process Version 2003 incorrectly display a “Post Crop Vignette: Paint Overlay” History step. Selecting a subsequent History State can reset existing settings that follow that state in the History panel. This reset cannot be undone, effectively deleting any settings that have been applied after the selected History State. This only occurs with images adjusted in PV2003.And up until today, I was indeed seeing this Post Crop Vignette: Paint Overlay history step on my Process Version 2003 photos.
Today, I downloaded and installed Jeffrey Friedl's Data Explorer Plug-In, and I used it to create a collection which contained all of my photos that are Process 2003, so I could go through them and see if any would benefit from using Process 2012.
Lo and behold, I see my process 2003 photos now do NOT have this history step, as you can see in the attached screen capture (the history does not show this step, and at the top right, under the historgram, the photo is clearly PV 2003).have I misunderstood something, or did Jeffrey inadvertently provide a work-around, or something else?

When I try to change my photo on my profile, it always says the image is too big. I've made it even like 10 x 10 pixels, and it STILL says it's too big! I'm not sure if it's me, or something wrong with uploader.

I am starting a new threads about bumpmaps and FSX because a. I have used the wrong language for you to answer me and b. the old post provoked heated debate, which I didn't want.
OK, the answer to generating bumpmaps is that I have to move the red channel (copy?) it into the alpha channel - how do I do that? Corel is obviously not a graphics tool that is aimed at my brain... and not the way I like to think and I am missing something here.
Once I have moved the red channel contents to the alpha, I can flood fill the red with black and the blue with white - that is fine and I can do that.
Now I have to save the RGB plus alpha - for FSX use I need to save in ddsx mode - or convert to dds using "Imagetool" or "DXTBmp" - I guess saving as TGA would do the trick? Is there a better RGBA format?

by "normal" inverting an b/w image the image changes the colours in black or white.
when recording the invert image process the script shows:
WITHOBJECT "CorelPHOTOPAINT.Automation.13" .BitmapEffect "Invertieren", "InvertEffect "END WITHOBJECT
But when I play the recorded script nothing happens. No invert. No changing colours. Other scripts like Mask Rectangle or Adding Guidelines work.
Using Corel photo-paint x3 v.13.0.0.576. Don't know if I have Corel Service Packs installed. I don't think so.

I have two pictures.
I would like the two pictures to blend in the middle from left to right.
The picture on the left will be sharpe on the left side but fade/transparent by the time it reaches the middle.
The picture on the right will be sharpe on the right side but fade/transparent in the middle.
I would think I need a gradient transparency (you always have to use a color)
I see pictures like this all the time, but can not seem to find the correct feature or combinations of features.

I have been working with both Corel Draw 12 and and at some point Photo Paint just froze. Empty main area, just one docker opened. Doesn't matter where I click on the screen, the same metallic clicking response. I uninstalled the whole suite and installed it again.
No difference, the same screen starts and the same freeze. I can only close it using Task Manager. Corel Draw works find and Photo Paint works fine on the other computer on which I installed it at the same time.

In my opinion removing window with paste parameters like size and dpi in X6 was bad decision.
Now I have to remember to make vector objects big enough to avoid pasting them too small in photopaint.
99% of photostock vector files are too small to copy/paste them without resizing.
As webdesigner I can tell that old version of "paste" had better functionality .
system configuration:
Win 7 Pro 64bit, Intel i5-2500, 8 GB RAM, 128 SSD SAMSUNG + 2TB on hard drives.
corel version:
X6 VERSION: 16.4.0.1280

Every time I double click on a bitmap in Corel Draw, it opens up Photo Paint. How can I disable this option? I never use it and its a waste of my time because it takes too long to load up! I don't know if my mouse has a problem, but sometimes I can just click once on a bitmap and it triggers the photo paint to open.

Photo paint uses an absurd amount of CPU when drawing a line; the brush "lags" and stutters about the screen, too. My system CPU is a Core i7-2600k, and all 8 threads are maxed during the drawing of the line. Why would this be?

When trying to open an EPS file in Corel PHOTO-PAINT, an error appears indicating that "The file cannot be opened".
AND, when PP is trying (unsuccesfully) to load the file, it also convert it into CPT, instead of keeping the EPS format.
(Photoshop can open EPS files without any problem...)

I was trying to use a couple of filters when I noticed that some of them are no longer working. They are still there but can not even be selected to be used. I don't believe that I may have changed an option to bring this about but I may have.

After creating text in Draw X6, I can't drop it into Photo-Paint without it appearing to be improperly cropped; i.e., some outer edges of letters appear to be cut off (see example below). Converting the text to curves does not solve the issue.
Strangely, I have no problem if I copy the same text from Draw X5 - the results are excellent.

Every since I updated CDx6, Photo-Paint no longer allows for drawing or erasing in a straight line by clicking, pressing the alt key and clicking again. Instead a scale comes up that changes the brush opacity...What happened? I can't figure out what happened. See attached file. The red arrow indicates what comes up when alt is pressed.
