X6 Draw - Unable to See the Smear - Only Bezier (outline) Dots Appear

$

Hi, would appreciate some help.  Just installed X6 and trying to use the spear tool in Draw.  I copied and pasted an image then began using the tool.  It showed the object being smeared nicely however, it only showed bezier (outline) dots around the newly created smears. However, when I create a graphic from within Draw such as a filled circle, it shows the smear with no issue.  Wondering if there is some type of setting or option to allow for smearing the other object that are pasted/added into the image.  Thanks.

Hi,
Does the Export dialog in PhotoPaint X7 still show an incorrect file
size.
In X6 it was about 25% higher than the file size shown in Windows
Explorer after saving.

Problems With Vector Fill

$

Hi, I'm new here and I hope someone can help me.

I'm using vector fills and I need to mirror the objects I'm using them on. The fill won't mirror correctly though. It just turns by 180° and isn't in the right position either.

 

The other problem I have is that when I'm saving this as a pdf file the vector fills look ugly.

Any help would be much appreciated!

Distortion

$
0
0

I use distortion quite often. In Corel X3, I draw a straight line and apply distortion pre-set Zipper which creates a sawtooth pattern. Then I convert to curves and apply Fillet to the sawtooth which then converts the shape into a wave pattern. This does not work at all in X7 because there is no ability to convert to curves when the distortion effect is applied

Workaround is to create sawtooth pattern, convert to an object, create boundary, break the outline up and discard the second line and apply the Fillet. A lot of mucking around for what used to be a simple task.

Typographic question: Width of non-breakable-space

$

0

Hi, everyone!

Why is the width of the "non-breakable-space" (e. g. ALT+0160) not the same as the width of the normal "space"? I could use the "narrow-non-breakable-space" but it's not available in everey OT-Font (e. g. Humanist777).

I can insert the &nnbsp from Arial in a text box with an other font - works fine. But if I work with styles and edit the style I lose the &nnbsp.

Any idea for me? Thanks for suggestions.

CD x7 32-bit has disappeared

$

Something very strange has happened. Using Windows 7, I've recently upgraded to Graphics Suite x7. As you know, the download includes both 32-bit and 64-bit versions. I'd been using the 32-bit until I noticed today the 32-bit turned into the 64-bit and the 32-bit program has simply disappeared from my computer. I'd put the shortcut to the 32-bit program on my task bar, but it's suddenly become the 64-bit and is freezing all the time, not letting me close a file because the program is doing something "in the background." Anyone have any idea what's going on? And where has my 32-bit version gone? If I re-download, to get the 32-bit back, do I have to uninstall the 64-bit first? I'm really lost here. I love CD, but this is getting way above my pay grade!

White no longer white

Hi all, I'm having a big problem with the way Corel is looking. I just updated my video drivers are now my workspace look like this where the yellow is supposed to be white. Anything that I make white as this color until it is exported and looked at in a different application such as ACDSee. I'm assuming that it's a color management problem but I am simply useless at color management. Or maybe it's something to do with my monitor's profile. I do notice that it is the same on either of my monitors.

 

If anyone can offer me any help with this I would be so grateful.

 

Thanks a lot in advance for any help.

Distort tool not working correctly?

I just got CorelDraw X7 not too long ago and in X5 I created swirls all the time using the distort twister tool. Now that I am trying it in X7 I notice that it is not working correctly, leaving imperfections and bad distorts on it.

 

Any thoughts on why this does this or how to fix?  I create it from just starting out with a regular circle.
