So I'm creating some interface elements in Draw, and the shadow transparency blend settings always go out the window when I try to export my art as any type of bitmap. It just flips back to "Normal" regardless of what I've set it to be. Is this a known issue?
I can post attachments if necessary...
Thanks,Addison
OK, let's see...

See if this helps. I'm trying to use "If Darker" to get a really subtle upper shadow on the text, but it always flips back to "Normal" (or possibly "Multiply") when I export as any type of bitmap.
HI, try a normal export, CTRL+E and see if there is a difference.

Yep, it appears to do the same thing on any type of export, whether it be for web or using Control+E. I've tried PNG, TIF, and JPEG so far...
OK, maybe post one button as CDR

You got it. CorelDRAW X5...

my tests:
in X5 without "new" export preview
result on disk. shadow a little glitchy, but there.
export from X5 with "new" export preview. shadow still there.
Only thing I can suggest is a reset to workspace...
Note: for shadows I use sancho's commercial prog.
Awe, man -- looks like the same results I'm getting. Maybe the drop shadow will get overhauled in X6. And I've checked out Sancho's shadow macro more than once. It just gets me down that Draw's doesn't work as it should...
Thanks for your time and help, Jeff.

Try multiply mode instead
