You can customize the contents and position of the property bar to suit your needs. Docker windows and palettes Docker windows Windows and palettes Mac OS display the same type of controls as a dialog box, such as command buttons, options, and list boxes. In Windows, Docker windows can be either docked or floating. Docking a Docker window attaches it to the edge of the application window. Undocking a Docker window detaches it from other parts of the workspace, so it can be easily moved around.
You can also collapse Docker windows to save screen space. The graphic below shows some of the information displayed in a status bar. A blank page gives you the freedom to specify every aspect of a drawing.
A template provides you with a starting point and leaves the amount of customization up to you. CorelDRAW lets you open existing drawings saved to a variety of file formats.
Locate the folder where the drawing is stored. Click a filename. Click Open. Windows If you want to view a thumbnail of the drawing, click the Preview check box. Finding and inserting drawing content You can use clipart, photo images, and sounds stored on the Corel content CDs or that are available online.

You can double-click it to browse through the content folders inside. Enable the CD icon check box in the list of disks. Enable the File names option. Type a keyword. Click the magnifying glass button. If none of the preset templates meets your requirements, you can create a template based on styles you create or styles taken from other templates.
You can edit a template by making changes to the styles, page layout settings, or objects. After you have started a drawing with a template, you can load a different template. When you load a template, you can choose to load just the styles or to load styles, page layout settings, and objects. To preview the contents of a template, enable the Preview check box. When you use the Load command, only the styles are loaded.
Undoing, redoing, and repeating actions You can undo the actions you perform in a drawing, starting with the most recent action. Reverting to the last saved version of a drawing also lets you remove one or more actions.
Certain actions applied to objects, such as stretching, filling, moving and rotating, can be repeated to create a stronger visual effect. Customizing the undo settings lets you increase or decrease the number of actions that you can undo or redo. Choose the action that precedes all the actions you want to undo, or choose the last action you want to redo. When you undo a series of actions, all actions listed below the action you choose are undone.
When you redo a series of actions, the action you choose and all actions listed between it and the last undone action are redone. You can also undo or redo actions by clicking the Undo button or Redo button on the Standard toolbar. The higher the value you specify, the greater the demand on memory resources. You can also save and print this information. You can also Save drawing information Click Save as, specify a folder and filename, and click Save.
Print drawing information Click Print. Zooming and panning You can change the view of a drawing by zooming in to get a closer look or by zooming out to see more of the drawing.
You can experiment with a variety of zoom options to determine the amount of detail you want. Another way in which you can view specific areas of a drawing is by panning. When you work at high magnification levels or with large drawings, you may not be able to see the whole drawing. While you are panning, you can zoom in and out. While you are zooming, you can pan. This saves you from having to alternate between the two tools. You can specify zooming and panning settings to zoom in quickly to detailed parts of a drawing and zoom out to the larger context.
To zoom 1 Open the Zoom flyout, and click the Zoom tool. When you are not editing text, you can also access the Zoom tool by pressing the Z key. You can also zoom in by double-clicking or dragging anywhere in the drawing window using the Hand tool. When you are not editing text, you can also access the Hand tool by pressing the H key. If you want to pan in the drawing window while zoomed in on the drawing, click the Navigator button in the bottom-right Windows or bottom-left Mac OS corner of the drawing window or the N key.
Drag the cross-haired pointer around in the Navigator pop-up window. When you preview a drawing, only the objects on the drawing page and in the immediate area of the drawing window are displayed, and you can see all layers that are set to print in Object Manager.
If you want to get a closer look at specific objects in a drawing, you can select and preview them, too. When you preview selected objects, the rest of the drawing is hidden. Before you preview a drawing, you can specify the preview mode. The preview mode affects the speed at which your preview displays and the amount of detail that is displayed in the drawing window. You can also display consecutive pages on the screen at the same time and create objects that span two pages.
Click anywhere on the screen, or press any key, to return to the application window. To preview selected objects 1 Select the objects. If Preview selected only mode is enabled and no objects are selected, Full screen preview displays a blank screen.
The Left side option is only available for the Full page and Book layout styles. Backing up and recovering files CorelDRAW can automatically save backup copies of drawings and prompt you to recover them when you restart the program in the event of a system error. The auto backup feature saves drawings that you have open and modified.
During any working session with CorelDRAW, you can set the time interval for automatically backing up files and specify where you want the files to be saved: by default in your temporary folder or to a specified folder.
Backup files are stored in either the temporary or the user-specified folder. You can choose not to recover a file; however, that file is automatically erased when you shut down the program normally. Disable auto backup Choose Never from the Minutes list box. You can cancel the creation of an auto backup file by pressing Esc while saving is in progress. Recovered files are named GraphicsX. CorelDRAW offers advanced options that let you assign notes, keywords, and thumbnails to drawings so that you can find them more easily.
If you are saving a drawing to use in another application, you must save it to a file format that is supported by that application. A drawing can also be saved as a template, allowing you to create other drawings with the same properties. CorelDRAW lets you save selected objects in a drawing. If you are working on a large drawing, saving only the selected objects reduces the file size, which can decrease the time it takes to load the drawing.
You can also save a drawing by clicking the Save button on the Standard toolbar. To save only selected objects 1 2 3 4 5 6 Select the objects. Enable the Selected only check box. Locate the folder where you want to save the file. Click Save. After you draw lines or apply brush strokes to lines, you can format them. You can also format the outlines that surround objects.
CorelDRAW provides preset objects that you can spray along a line. You can create flow and dimension lines in drawings. You can create a line that is drawn as you drag the mouse. You can create segments that are straight and curved in the same line. You can draw straight or curved segments and then add one node at a time. You can also draw a curve by specifying width and height. Working with lines, outlines, and brush strokes 43 You can draw a curved line by specifying its width left , specifying its height center , and clicking the page right.
Some lines have nodes and control points that you can manipulate to shape lines as you draw. CorelDRAW also lets you simulate the effect of a calligraphic pen when you draw lines. Calligraphic lines vary in thickness according to the direction of the line and the angle of the pen nib. By default, calligraphic lines display as closed shapes drawn with a pencil. You can control the thickness of a calligraphic line by changing the angle of the line you draw in relation to the calligraphic angle you choose.
For example, when the line you draw is perpendicular to the calligraphic angle, the line is at the maximum thickness specified by the pen width. Lines drawn at the calligraphic angle, however, have little or no thickness. A calligraphic pen allows you to draw lines of various thicknesses.
Working with lines, outlines, and brush strokes 45 CorelDRAW lets you create pressure-sensitive lines which vary in thickness. You can create this effect using the mouse or a pressure-sensitive pen and graphics tablet. Both methods result in lines with curved edges and varying widths along a path. A flower drawn by using three different artistic media lines: calligraphic lines left ; pressure-sensitive lines center and the lineflat preset line right.
