How do I control a mask better

$
0
0

Hi,

When I use a magic wand mask to select a range of pixels, the correct range is selected plus a couple of pixels in addition.

When I use a Freehand mask to add areas to a mask, I see the same behavior: the area I select is chosen plus a little bit more.

When I then use a Freehand mask to remove areas from a mask, the selection seems more precise and is limited to just what I select.

Can you help me better use the mask tools. Ultimately I want my selection to be masked, and then if I remove pixels or something, a feather of 1 or 2px to be applied.

Thanks,

Sean

Creating a serial number sequence

I have a job that requires me to make a serial number for each part. There is 480 parts per tray, 2400 parts a week and somehow 19,000 parts a month. So I need to find a way to have a sequence of numbers that increase by one without manually having to input each number each time before a print.

Working with Spot Colors

Just upgraded from X5 to X7.

 

The old „Edit Fill“ (paint bucket) is gone but Color Docker and new Edit Fill are there.

 

Still, working with spot colors (Pantone) I can't type in the PMS ref. number to find the color, but I have to scroll through the whole pallette.

 

Example; if I want to change a blue CMYK color to PMS-293 I usually could select the PMS pallette and type 293 to get the color. Now I have to scroll to find it.

 

Am I missing something here or is this really supposed to be like this? This is very time comsuming when working with spot colors...

photo background removal.

Hail the reader,

Removing the background from a picture.

I am reasonably au fait with the use of the cut out lab method for removing the photo background, however I visited a laser company and the person there used the bezier tool very effectively, pulling the nodes around the head and shoulders of the picture and so eliminating the background.

Can somebody please tell me if there is a good tutorial on this - like

1. do this
2. do this etc

Preferably a pdf which I can read as I go.

If not can some one tell me how I may learn to do this?

Thank you

Maximum Number of Activations reached - How to reset?

$

0

I'm regularly setting up my machine by giving it a fresh install.

Today, CorelDRAW X6 notified me that I can not install it to my new installation because the maximum number of installations has been reached.

How can I have this Maximum Installations Counter reset?

Currently the only way to reach Corel support is by buying a support ticket. But I refuse to pay to get a service I've already paid for.

Any help is appreciated.

Fountain Fill angle bug in X7

I haven't got what's actually happening figured out but something is strange, a bug.

Open X6 file. Run code on with shape selected in X6.

Open X7 file. Run code on with shape selected in X7.

Preferably step through code slowly by pressing F8

Ideas welcome.

~John

 

Sub test_angle_use_selected_shape()
    Dim s As Shape, s1 As Shape
    Dim a#
   
    Set s = ActiveShape
    If s Is Nothing Then MsgBox "Please select shape in test file. Exiting.": Exit Sub
    a = s.Fill.Fountain.Angle
    s.Fill.Fountain.SetEdgePad 45
   
    Set s1 = s.Duplicate
    s1.Move 0, 8
   
    s1.Fill.ApplyFountainFill
    s1.Fill.Fountain.SetEdgePad 45
    s1.Fill.Fountain.SetAngle a
End Sub

 


Okay, anyone else have problems CLOSING a file in Draw X7?

Sometimes I'll get this message when I try to close a file:

"Some of the documents could not be closed, because tasks are being performed in the background." This on a file that's been saved already, nothing else is being done to it, there are no other files open - but IT WON'T LET ME CLOSE THE DANG THING. I have to force-close the entire application. See the screenshot. Anyone else have this happen?

Hi everyone,

Two weeks ago I've started to have some problems with my Corel Draw X6.

If I need to create a PDF it always creates a blanc page PDF with 5865% zoom.

The example below was a simple A4 page with five words, but nothing appears at the PDF.

Can anyone help me? 

Thank you very much.

Best regards

Scaling Text leaves distortion on screen

$

When scaling or moving text using the handles, it distorts the graphics around it and under it.  And these distortions remain on screen until I zoom out or zoom in.  

This started happening since upgrading to x7

It is very annoying especially when trying to place the text exactly where you want it.

Any ideas?

 

Thank you!
Jeff
