When I used a non-standard font size in Corel Draw X8 (e.g. 10.5), the font size was shown in the drop down menu and could be easily selected for other text in the same document. In Corel Draw 2018, the used font sizes are not shown in the drop down menu any more. Is there a possibility to activate this functionality in Corel Draw 2018?
That's a very reasonable question. I really don't like to see useful features disappear.
I would suggest that you work through CorelDRAW support, and see if the question can eventually reach the developer team that way.
If you do that, then please share the results here on this thread!
This behavior is a huge inconvenience for me also. I have to manage a lot of separate artistic text particles in one document and they have to be adjusted in different, suitable sizes. Now it takes a lot of time to adjust every point size separately, say something between 7 and 20 pts. I hope that in the near future I can select the once used font size, what ever it is, just from the size selector and not to type it again and again. VERY frustrating and time consuming, as time is money.
I don't work with Object Styles myself but maybe you could create different styles with the font sizes you need?
Neither do I, but I'll give it a try
Ronny's suggestion of looking at Object Styles is a good one. They can be a great way to save time and get consistent formatting on multiple objects.
Keep in mind that Object Styles are something that can be exported and imported, so it's easy to use them again in a different document.
