CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X3 :: Text Within Shape While Precisely Keeping The Shape's Outline

Nov 11, 2011

I'm working with CorelDraw X3 and want to fill text into a round shape, while keeping it's exact outline. Hence, cutting of parts of words and letters is fine with me as long as the shape is well-defined. Unfortunately when filling paragraph text into a shape, the automatic line breaks lead to a quite irregular shape regardless of font size.

As workaround I arranged a mask in front of background and text but this requires a square paragraph text which is larger than the background. Since paragraph text obviously cannot be cropped with other objects I made the mask size bigger and filled it white. When exporting my document as image everything looks neat, but there must be a better way to do this in CorelDraw itself?

I tried converting the paragraph text into artistic text and cropping this, which works fine for a few words and a small object. But I'm talking around 1000 words here, and trying to crop this artistic text leads to very random cropping results. I guess such a large number of objects and knots is too much for CorelDraw to handle!?

Photoshop :: Draw Mountain Outline And Fill - But Adjust Later?

Mar 2, 2013

What would be the best approach to draw a mountain outline using a vector approach & fill, but be able to adjust the outline later via a vector approach? (i.e. outline shouldn't get rasterized)
 
So the approach would need to be able to:
* create the outline & selection with a vector based approach
* vector selection has to be effectively saved for later
* modification later should support getting access to the original handles of the vector selection (say with Pen tool) and make adjustment
* after adjustement of the vector area is made, the fill should automatically occur on the extended or contracted area
 
approach/which tools to use in CS6 to be able to do this?

Jul 2, 2012

How do I draw an stroke/line around an rectangle shape and let it be "INSIDE of the rectangle". Like in Photoshop in the stroke layer effects.

What I have so far: I am aware of the "line" option. BUT it paints the stroke OUTSIDE of the rectangle and extends its size. This is NOT what I would like to have.

It does trouble me especially during setting "drop shadow", "inner glow" and "stroke". In previous version, if this problem came up, I can solve it by  clicking another layer and then double-clicking the original layer to pop up the style setting.

Illustrator :: Get Path Outline To Cut Out The Shape Below

Feb 26, 2013

I have been playing around a bit - and think the answer lives somewhere in compound paths, but can't quite get it right.
 
In the example below, I essentially want the anter to cut out it's outline shape into the axe. Same with the shield over everything.
 
This is essentially so I can place the logo over all sorts of backgrounds, without having to have a white outline on it.

Illustrator :: Odd Separated Shape On Outline

Jul 9, 2012

The oject below has an unwanted small yellow shape on its edge.

Not sure why it is there as an identicle object within the same project doesn't have it!
 
How can I connect them again so they are one?

Whilst I am doing this is it also possible to connect the other yellow areas in this image so I can recolor them all together whilst testing colors?

I tried using the: Shift+Select all object>Ctrl Click>Group (& tried "Join" also) but doesnt seem to connect them!

Illustrator :: Creating Outline Of A Shape

Mar 21, 2013

I'm new to illustrator and I'm trying to achieve something I hoped would be quite simple. I want to take a bitmap, live trace it, then create an outline of 2px wide only around the outside limits of the shape. I want to then get rid of all of the live trace vectors and be left with my very simple outline of the original image. Eg.

I've tried image expand, I've tried outline, but nothing seems to work as I need it to.

Xara :: Create Shape With Partial Outline?

Sep 20, 2011

I've been using Xara Photo and Graphic designer for about a week now to design some characters for a game I'm working on and in general find it great to use as a freehand authoring tool.

In order to develop a cartoon style, I'm building my characters out of free hand coloured objects with black outlines with cel shading made from partial masked clones of the objects. This works a treat until I come to put two of the objects together and want to erase part of the outline on the topmost object where it meets the underlying one.

I thought I'd found a solution with a tip on the Xara site (at the top of the page here) where you draw the outline portion you want and combine with a second object then break the objects again. This pretty much achieves what I want, I get a filled object with the outline broken where I originally left it, however, things start to go wrong when you attempt to mask clone a part of the object you've created (for example, to produce a shaded portion of the underlying object) as it's still a line and not a shape, so the mask clone gets confused and doesn't cut out the intended area.

This must be a pretty regular requirement, particularly for people creating flash animations, so I'm sure I must be missing something or going about the construction of the image in the wrong way.
