I have looked everywhere....and of course all in the wrong places...how do you make the erase tool really erase...not just rearrange the lines
To Corel Draw, the object you created has a fill and the eraser will behave as Diane showed with the magenta stars. I think you want the eraser tool to behave as if you had drawn an outline on paper with a pencil; it would have no fill. To do that in Draw, the object must have the outline broken apart so that it no longer has a fill. To do that, use the shape tool and right click on a node. From the dropdown menu select 'Break Apart'. Now the eraser tool will act as if it is acting on just an ouline, which it is. - Scotty
Hi Diane, I'm baking bread here in Pottstown, PA. The wind seems to be blowin' the right way. Can you catch the aroma over there in Jersey? - Scotty
If you are trying to erase part of a raster image then you must erase in photo paint. If it is vecto, then scotty has the answer. You can go to your tools and unselect the treat objects as filled.
edited for calling it create objects as filled rather than treat objects as filled.
