    Just like the title says. Does someone have a macro, or is there a command function within CorelDraw 2021 for removing an object from a group? Literally, just taking the highlighted/selected object out of the group it is in so one doesn't have to ungroup…

    Related to the Objects docker in 2019 (formerly Object Manager in earlier versions).

  • Selecting & copying/cutting specific nodes copies/cuts the entire object

    I am having an issue in X7 where, when I use the shape tool to select specific nodes within an object and then either copy or cut those nodes, the entire object gets copied/cut, not just the nodes I selected.

    So I'm doing this job that requires me to import a customer PDF, and when import there turns out to be around 43,000 objects in the file. For every section of this PDF with a solid color, it's not one object but rather a series of lines put close together…
