Hi,
last week I purchased and installed CorelDraw X4. After I had watched the video tutorials I wanted to try out the preview function in the Windows Explorer which should work with Vista and Windows 7. A double click starts Corel X4 properly, but the preview or the thumbnail function doesn't work (message "no preview available"). Curiously the Corel paint Fotos work in the preview pane. Only cdr-files aren't previewed.
In the scrapbook the cdr files are displayed correctly.
Does anyone has an idea how to activate this preview function?
I thank you very much from German!

Hi!
Did you select the option that in on the top right of your screen ...it's the view.
In that option you can change the way you see the files...list....details...large icons....
I thank you for your assistance but neither middle nor large icons work - that's the problem:
Any more idea?
Thanks a lotGonzo
Yes Diane, I did make that suggestion.
Associating the file type with Windows Photo Viewer and then back to CorelDRAW was the way you got your thumbs back.... but that's a long shot.
Hi.I'm not sure where this is on win7 but you could check your file associations for type cdr. If you have other versions of draw installed and the file assoc. is pointed to a different version...In vista its start > default programs.PS. Are you downsaving to another version or just saving normally? Do you have other versions of Draw installed?-John
That's a very good question John. I've read somewhere that two conflicting versions can cause this problem. Uninstalling both and reinstalling the latest version fixed that user's problem.
I like the new image Adrian...
