OK: Here's the video:
Corel X7 on WIN7 here.
I show only 1 xml file @
C:\Users\Myron\AppData\Roaming\Corel\CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X7\Draw\Object Data
After I delete it and restart corel it looks good from the start so I hit "save settings as default" just to be sure but comes right back after starting a new page. What am I missing?
