One of the first things I did when customizing my workspace was make it much faster to access some of CorelDRAW's most powerful features. On many devices, you can have one-click access to all of these buried tools. Watch the animation for how to...
I don't use the built-in red eye tool found in Photo-PAINT. It doesn't offer the best results in my opinion. Instead, here's my favorite way - from David MacDonald from over ten years ago. David Mutch was kind enough to detail the steps that...
Here's another example of spraying objects, in this case droplets. I added a fancy secret touch... Someone was so impressed with how this looks that they paid me 10.00 USD to get a copy of it! Maybe I should put it on...
Some users prefer the old way found in Photo-PAINT, version 12 and lower. (Initial release of X3 worked like this too, but not after service packs). In old versions, the PNG would open, and user could see that the masked area defined the...
For the animation, I prepared some vector trees in advance as coreldraw object sprayer. I've covered this in other youetube videos such as this one: A user in the CorelDRAW forums asked in this thread about containing the drawn shapes inside a...
Some simple things can be animated in Photo-PAINT directly. However, for smoother results, that comes from keyframing. This is when software generates the intermediate steps automatically. Basically, you move an item from point A to point B, and...
Some of us hope for an overhaul for the handling of linked bitmaps. In the meantime, there are some fun things to play with in the Windows Registry. Some of us discussed this back in 2008. This isn't for the faint-hearted. If you don't know what...
In Feb of 2013, I noticed a lot of space being taken up in my roaming folder: Check the areas in yellow. that's a massive amount of files and folders. Since I like to keep a tidy system, I asked Corel Staff: "is it safe to delete these?"...
Hopefully most CorelDRAW users realize that the Property Bar changes, depending on what's going in the document area. For example, if you double-click on a curve shape, you'll see some functions that are specific to node manipulation. A user at...
New features: Slicing: by size with overlapping The length of curves with separation by color Trim for lightbox (with overlap) Search for 'thick' lines and converting them into an object Search for small objects Search for intersection Search...
I tend to design projects around the dominant hues found in the bitmaps used in that particular project. Put down that Twinkie and pay attention! I once charged huge sums for this info. CorelDRAW might still have a bit of a bad reputation due to...
Sometime I see other users suggest convoluted ways to fade images. I propose that CorelDRAW's Interactive Transparency Tool is the fastest way to get the job done. Note that this method is also non-destructive. In this example, I simply selected...
