Opening an existing image-no preview Using Windows 7

$

0

Hi,

When I'm using Corel PP5 and I go to opening an existing image I am able to view all file extentions including .cpt in the preview window.  I'm able to do this with both PP5 and PP7 files.

When I'm using Corel PP7 and I go to opening an existing image I am unable to view .cpt extentions in the preview window.  Is this an issue with Windows 7?

What am I missing here.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Pictures are included.

The only thing I can do is close the window and abort the installation. 

Any suggestions ?

PPx7 - Saving Custom Brushes/Nibs?

$
0
0

Hello,

I used to be able to take and convert Photoshop brushes to use in the previous version of PP. I admit the version was a dinosaur - it was Photopaint 8 from yeeears ago. I recently had to buy a new computer, and was forced to get an updated version of PP, as that one was just too old to run under Windows 8.1.

So... in Photopaint x7... is there any way at ALL to save a custom nib/brush from a png file, or am I just up the creek without a paddle here? I already have the ABR exporter, but once I get the png file into Photopaint, I just can't seem to find a way to save it as a custom nib. Heck, I can't even find a way to save custom brushes, PERIOD... the 'add custom brush' option is ALWAYS greyed out no matter what I do.

I have already tried Dan Richard's tutorial, and that does NOT work with x7 from what I can see. No joy.

So, is there any way to create a custom nib/brush from a .png file, and SAVE it as a custom brush preset? Or is that functionality now gone? 

Thanks in advance for any help you can give.

Come on Corel Get Your Act Together

For some reason the programmers that work on these programs and updates don't seem to use the same computers that everyone else does ? Hence the difficulty in replicating the same customer issues that we all experience. Is this true ?

What I really hate is any save / open / or rendering the whole screen JUMPS ! It makes the program look terribly unstable. Surely the programmers and coders experience this ? And what have they done about it ?

When you resize a text frameALL the text gets reformated and you loose all your font formatting. Bold goes, underline goes, font styles all revert to one font, etc, etc. The safest way not to loose your formatting is dont touch the text frame !!!   The was supposed to be addressed in Update 2.

Corel goes to so much trouble marketing this software yet they just can't get it right. Updates are hit and miss.

I am a strong supporter of CorelDRAW , we use it extensively in movie , television production and advertising. We love it !

Come on Gerard get with the program and get your team working on making CorelDRAW the best.


X7 Very Touchy

$

I have noticed that after the 2nd update that CDR is very touchy.

For instance.

Fumble a keyboard shortcut - Crash

Hit Ctrl+SpaceBar to fast - Crash

Hit Ctrl+E to export then hit escape before the dialogue box has appeared - Crash

Not to mention the screen jumping up and down through various functions as has been mentioned elsewhere

In fact doing things quickly seems to make it unstable

I have done a repair Install, reinstalled 2nd patch, F8ed it etc

Anybody else experiencing these problems?

Macro for round corners in Photo-Paint x7

$

Hello everyone,

I hope you can help me.

I need to apply a round and transparent corner to 200+ images with a macro.

How do I set the following option in a macro or with the recorder?

When I create the rectangle mask using the recorder function, that one option for round corners is not applied.

Can you fill in the gaps?

I've already spent two days looking for this setting with no luck.  Either a macro or recorder.

Sub Macro1()
  Dim doc As Document
  Set doc = ActiveDocument
  doc.Background.ConvertToLayer
  Set lay = ActiveLayer
  lay.CreateMask  --> round corners 10 pixel??
 
  lay.CropToMask
 
End Sub

 

Example: image before

 Image after: round transparent corners

I need to achieve this with a macro or recorder.

 

Thank you very much in advance.

docker area starts as blank

My dockers area shows a blank grey area and will show the items when I click on a tab.  This happens when Draw is started and a new/existing document is chosen.  Does this happen to others and why?  I've confirmed it happens to another user at work and at my laptop at home.

Save all Draww settings

There really needs to be a utility or feature that saves ALL of the custom settings in Draw such as the following:

1.  linetypes

2.  endpoint styles

3.  quickCorrect settings including custom text for Replace and With (tools, options, text, quickcorrect...)

4.  all custom short-cut keys (not sure if this is already done completely in CDWS file.

This may be already created.  If so, let me know.

P.s. - I just discovered how the backup my quickcorrect settings...

Hello !
 
CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X7.2  (v17.2.0.688)  GER x64
OS: Microsoft Windows 7 Professional  x64 (incl. curent SP + Patches)
 
When I use paragraph text with activated order "text> display non-printable signs" and a PostScript Type1-Font non-printable signs (like vertical spacing, paragraph sign, protected blanks) are not displayed.
If I change the format of the whole text into an OTF-Font e.g. "Arial" all non-printabel signs will be displayed.
I used the following professional PostScript Type1-Font:
Helvetica 55 Roman, Font Type: Type 1, Family Style: Decorative, File Name: HLR_____.PFM, Family Name: Helvetica Neue, PostScript Name: HelveticaNeue-Roman, Version: 001.102, Copyright (c) 1988, 1990, 1993 Adobe Systems Incorporated.
 
Does somebody know this problem and can tell me how to solve it?
 
Thank you very much.
 
Kind regards

Corel x7 and Roland vinyl Cutter Problem

$

Hi,

I recently upgraded my x5 to x7.  I cut vinyl with a Roland Plotter.  When I copy/paste designs and fonts from Corel X7 to my roland Cut Studio software the lines aren't smooth, very jagged and they cut as shown in my Roland Software. I did not have this problem with X5.  

Is there anyone who can give me any insight on this problem? I need a fix, quickly. Thanks!

Lisa

Remove Hyperlinks on imported text and tab through Imposition layout???

$

I was incredibly disturbed by Corel 6, when you could no longer remove hyperlinks by just clicking UNDERLINE, but had to go through a ridiculous procedure of opening the INTERNET dialogue box and deleting the link. But Corel 7 is worse.

HOW THE HECK DO YOU DELETE THE HYPERLINKS NOW??

And also, now in Corel 7 when I do 24-up imposition business card layouts I have to CLICK on each frigging item in order to change the numbers.  WHY?? WHY??????? In 6 and 5 I could just tab through them. 

 

PLEASE COREL, why are you making it HARDER to get work done instead of easier????
