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...

Thanks!

"Tints" is available when you use a Spot color, such as a Pantone.
For CMYK or RGB, by default we need the CMYK or RGB values, but you can use as "tint" anyway, on the Color Styles docker (Ctrl+F6). Add a color as new style, then choose "create gradient", for example 10 shades lighter (you can modify it later)
Thanks Arial! looks like it will take a litle time to learn all triks in Corel Draw.
But about my second requst: It will be a great idea if we will have a Tint Slider, to can aplly Tint easely, and also for RGB and CMYK without having to create a gradient, and not only for Spot color.
And it should be available every place we want to edit a color, the same like we have a Trancparency Slider (see image for example).
This is just a small "Time Saving" request. But, Draw is great anyway...

this first thing that you must learn is the most important: "Arial" is a font. My name is Ariel. Although it's a name of an angel, my name comes from Shakespeare's books

And about your request: Yes, I understand your proposal. Imagine that you have an object with "Green" fill (C:100, M:0 Y:100 K:0), if you press and hold over the swatch of the color palette you'll see the shades of the selected color.
If you want to manually create a lighter shade, select the object and Ctrl + click over the "White" swatch of the color palette. If you want darker shades, Ctrl + click over the last swatch of the CMYK color palette (C100 M100 Y100 K100). Each Ctrl + click will create a lighter or darker tone
