Hi, i am new to Corel Draw (i draw a lot in Illustrator and Affinity Designer), and i found that i can aply to a TEXT only a flat Colour. and if i want to add a "Fountain fill" etc., i have to convert the Text to curvs (maybe i mistaking).
So, my first requst is simple:
My second requst is:
I found thaht its very easy to aplly "Trancparency" to an object, but i didnt see an option just for "Tint" (to lighten and darken the colour, without Trancparen background) like i see in other graphic aplications.
So, please ad a "Thint Slider", to give the ability to aply how Dark \ Light the colour should be (i know that its possible and easy to do that in Draw, but it will be a good idea if it will be more "Easyer" and "Official"... see image).
And don't forgot about my Effects reqest...

sorry, but that's wrong. Press F11 and select the fill you want.
Or take the interactive gradient fill (the G key) and you'll find al options available on the property bar. Anyway, if you press G and drag over the text, the resul will be a gradient, then you can choose colors, add (double click in the arrow) or remove colors
In addition to what Ariel said, remember there are two kinds of text in Draw; Artistic (click with the Text tool) and Paragraph text (click and drag a marquee).The Artistic text gives you more freedom to manipulate the text, while the Paragraph text is better for larger text blocks, and you can add tabs, drop caps and other stuff.It is possible to covert from one to the other with Ctrl+F8, but you may lose some text mode specific attributes.
