Learn Keyboard Shortcuts If you use menus, pay attention to the keyboard shortcuts for the features you select. Shortcuts are listed on the right side of menu items. Learning shortcuts in this way means you are only learning the shortcuts for the features you use most often … very efficient.
Hint: Pressing the F1 Key will bring up specific help for many features - a valuable shortcut. Right Click There are many hidden menus within CorelDraw. Right-click on everything in the beginning to see what menu may pop up. You may find some popup menus more trouble than other methods to accomplish the same task, but many are great time savers.
Reading through the Content listings can help you get an idea how the program is organized. For specific topics, use the Index.
What's This is a great little tool when you are learning Corel Draw. Click on Help, What's This. Your cursor becomes a? If there is a topic associated with that object, a pop-up window will appear with information about that function or object.
Main Menu Click on any of the Menu Items to expand the menu choices. The Main Menu provides all the functions for file management and object control. There are no drawing tools in this section. CorelDraw uses the Toolbar to create new items. This menu sample has been broken into two rows to conserve space.
On your screen it is across the top of your screen in one line. Selections that are available to you are shown in black in each menu list. If the choice is gray, that choice is not available to you. File Menu Click on File to expand the menu. This menu provides the options for file management, obtaining images through import or scanning and export. Anything that deals with a new file element coming from another source, or being sent to another source as a file is controlled here. Note the fly-out symbol beside Acquire Image and others.
This indicates that there are more choices within that option. Click on the fly-out symbol to expand your choices. Edit Menu Click on Edit to expand the menu. Edit menus are fairly consistent through all Windows applications. Cut, Copy and Paste are always located here, as are delete, duplication and search tools.
The Edit menu provides tools for selected objects. Note the Properties at the bottom of the menu. This selection provides detailed information about the selected object.
View Menu Click on View to expand the menu. This menu offers viewing quality options zoom is not included here but is offered through the Toolbar. You will also find the controls here for setting up grids and guidelines and how objects relate to these properties. You also have ruler control options with this menu. Layout Menu Click on Layout to expand menu. The layout menu provides page management controls. Add, delete pages, move around a multi-page document … all is controlled from this menu.
Note the Page Setup Option. This selection provides control for all page properties. Arrange Menu Click on Arrange to expand the menu. Arrange offers a collection of tools to make your work easier and more accurate.
This is where you will find controls to transform objects numerically as opposed to editing with the mouse , order, arrange, group and position objects. This is the main object control menu. Effects Menu Click on Effects to expand the menu. This set of menu options applies special effects to your objects. Here you will find the Artistic Media setting, which applies special effect outlines and the Lens effect, which provides effects like transparency.
Bitmaps Menu Click on Bitmaps to expand menu. CorelDraw is primarily a vector editing program, but this menu provides simple bitmap effects without opening a new program.
You can convert any object to a bitmap and apply simple effects. Text Menu Click on Text to expand menu. As the name implies, this is where you find the tools for managing your text. Click on Writing Tools to find tools similar to those found in word processors. You do not use this menu to enter text, since that is done through the Toolbar, but for working with the words, rather than the appearance of text, this is the place.
Tools Menu Click on Tools to expand menu. The Tools menu presents a selection of windows you can open to handle many of the same tasks that you do with the Main Menu and the Toolbar settings. The dedicated windows can help when you are working with one property or function, and need to accomplish several different operations. The windows do take up screen space, but they can be collapsed when you are not using them. As you learn to use the program, try working from the Tools windows to see if they save you time.
Window Menu Click on Window to expand menu. When you are working on more than one document, but working back and forth, this menu can help you keep things organized. You can tile arrange side by side or up and down or cascade layered on top of each other your documents. This is also where you control your dockers see Dockers and Color Palettes.
Simply, this is the menu that will help you make the most of multiple windows. If you need information about your copy of CorelDraw or your system resources, go to About CorelDraw.
Expanding Menus Click on and Main Menu item to expand menu. Click on a choice with an arrow indicating a sub menu exists. Watch for these sub menus as you work in CorelDraw, since what you are seeking may be on a second level, invisible in the main list.
CorelDraw offers so much that it is important to gain an understanding of where different effects and actions are likely to be found.
What is a Docker? Docker windows are designed to speed work for the most common tasks. Docker window actions can be done through the Toolbar or Main Menu, but Dockers provide easy access. Some Dockers allow you to save settings which helps automate repetitive tasks.
Docker windows can be "docked" or attached to different spots on the screen, or "undocked" and positioned anywhere. They can be easily closed or minimized to save screen space when not needed. The View Manager window will appear, attached to the right hand side of your screen. Collapse Docker Click on the Collapse Docker double arrows in the top left hand corner of the Docker window.
To restore the window to full size, click on the double arrow symbol, or anywhere on the Docker window tab. Resize Docker Window Position your mouse over the outer edge of the Docker window. The cursor will change to a double arrow in the right spot. Click and drag to the desired size.
Release mouse button. Change Docking Position Click the border of the Docker window and drag to the top or bottom of the screen. As you are dragging the Docker, note how a gray border in a square shape appears. Continue dragging until the outline pops into place along the edge you wish to attach the Docker.
The outline will snap to a new shape when it is docked. Release the mouse, and the Docker is attached to the new side.
Dockers on the top or bottom. Undock Docker Window Click and drag the Docker window to the middle of your work area. A square outline will appear on your screen. Release your mouse where you would like to place the Docker window. You can move the "undocked" Docker anytime by clicking and dragging.
The Docker remains in the same spot as you change your zoom levels. You can also minimize an "undocked" Docker.
Multiple Dockers Open the Docker windows you require. Drag the Dockers to the edge you would like them to be displayed. You can drag several Dockers into the same space. While minimized, they do not take up much screen space.
Experiment with placing Dockers in different locations to find the best combination for fast access to functions and reasonable workspace.

The sample above shows samples of an identical line with the three line cap styles applied. Note how the nodes differ on each style. The open node at the left of each line is the actual start point for that line.
Arrowheads Overview CorelDraw offers easy addition of an unlimited selection of arrowheads. The preset styles will match most needs, but there is also an easy to use edit feature for highly specialized arrowheads. The samples above are all simple lines with various arrowheads added. Note the green sample: The selection handles show where the line starts and ends. The curved head and the tail are the added arrowhead symbols.
You will need to keep this in mind as you design, since automated alignment will use the line end point. Open Outline Pen Window Draw a line from left to right on your screen. This is important to know which type of symbol to use.
There are options to place a symbol at the start and end of the line. Select line with Pick Tool. Choose the Outline Tool in the Toolbox to open the fly-out. Choose the first icon in the fly-out to open the Outline Pen Window. A fly- out appears with your arrow choices.

You can resize the arrow that is presented by clicking and dragging on the handles.
Move the arrowhead by clicking and nodes. Note the Center in X and Center in Y buttons. These buttons will help you return your arrowhead to a centered position once your editing is complete. Calligraphy Overview CorelDraw offers calligraphy effects to add a casual or hand-drawn look to your objects. This setting mimics the effect of a colored pencil or paint brush changing angles, and therefore thickness, around a curve or angle. The effect is best when used on objects with dramatic curves or angles.
The samples above show the thick and thin nature of the calligraphy outline. The outline for the multicolored oval has been converted to an object, which is also covered in this tutorial. The options are endless. Set outline width to at least 8 pixels in order to see the effects. Select oval with the Pick Tool and click on the Outline Tool to open the fly-out.
The Stretch value sets the shape of the brush. A lower setting creates a more pronounced effect. The angle value simulates brush angle. At 0 there is no effect. Click on the arrows to reduce and increase both angle and stretch, observing the sample as the numbers change.
Note: Negative angle numbers move the brush clockwise, positive numbers, counterclockwise. Set Stretch to 15 and Angle to Results Click OK to accept the settings and observe your oval.
Notice how the top left and bottom right lines are very thin, and opposite these points, the line is very thick. Repeat this exercise with the star to see how straight lines react. Calligraphy Lines Draw several curved lines using the Freehand tool and apply the same settings as you did for the star and oval. With lines, the calligraphy tool can really show off. Experiment with angles and widths to add energy and motion to your documents.
You can easily sketch symbols with a hand-sketched look, or add a calligraphy outline to display text, symbols and clip art. Convert Outline to Object Select with the Pick Tool, or draw any object and apply a calligraphy outline. Choose Arrange, Convert Outline to Object. This is a very powerful tool to allow you to use the unlimited fill options provided with CorelDraw. Once you have converted your graphic, the outline becomes an object, and can be filled and manipulated as such.
Try fountain fills with a calligraphy outline for a dramatic effect. Note: Once converted, you cannot change original calligraphy settings. What is a Color Palette? Look to the right hand edge of your CorelDraw screen. If there have been no changes made to your default settings, you will see a series of two rows of colors as shown in the sample above. This is an open color palette.
CorelDraw offers powerful color management and working tools, and the Palette display is the key to all color work. See Color Name Hold your mouse over any color without clicking to see the name highlighted. Scroll Color Selection Click on one of the arrows at the bottom of the color palette to reveal more colors. Or, you can right click carefully on the border of the color palette it may take some practice to find the exact spot and open the color palette popup window as shown above.

Change Swatch Appearance Click on Large Swatches for larger color swatches and wide borders to increase the size of palette borders.
Click OK to complete. The number indicates the number of color rows showing in the screen palette display. A higher number gives you more color choice without scrolling, but takes more screen space. The sample above is set to 6 rows, but since there are only five in the open palette, only 5 rows display.
This refers to the color well in the upper left corner of the palette as shown highlighted with a yellow square above. This should remain checked as it is a great time saver when working with objects. One click on this swatch removes either fill or outline. Move Palette to Workspace Click on border of palette and drag to desired location on your workspace.
A gray shaded square indicates the shape and size of the palette to aid with placement. Release mouse button to complete. Click and drag on the title area of the palette to move to a different location.

Tambahin Udah, Tips : Menciptakan Sketsa Desain Mengetahui jenis desain yang akan dibuat, Mengetahui macam obyek yang digunakan, dan Menentukan kesan dan gaya desain merupakan langkah - langkah yang lebih banyak dijalankan dalam pikiran kita.

Perubahan perubahan tersebut takkan menjadi suatu hal yang buruk selama dilakukan dengan maksud untuk menaikkan kualitas karya kita , atau merupakan pengembangan ide - ide yang berasal dari sketsa kasar.
