Dear all Draw users:
I want to do someting like that in Corel Draw, and i want to know if its possible (i understand that Draw don't have by now this kinds of vector effects {maybe in the next update...}, but maybe thare is a trick how to do that).
This was created in Affinity Designer. the Text is "100% Transparent", and its applied to it an "Outher Shadow".
In Draw wen its "100% Transparent", and i aply a "drop Shadow", the backgrownd is gettting Black.
(Maybe its will be some replacement for the Blur effect {what is by now not available in Draw for Vector}, but not for What i want to do)

Thanks.
Hot Coffee can I ask what type of work you're doing? I.E. are you doing graphics for display, print, large and grand format?
I need to download Affinity again and run a trial version to check on resolution and color management. I was on their website looking at help posting and corporate replies and I was appalled by the responses, seems like a total lack of basic concepts.
I am a simple Graphic designer, and i create posters, brochures, and magazines.
I didnt used Designer a lot, i just want to try it the same that i am trying now Corel Draw. and of course that i am more happy with the results in Draw, but the limitation of easy and nice vector effects keeping me back to illustrator and Designer.
So, when you instaling the trial, take a look into the amazing vector effects, and then tel me if you disagrees with me.
Ronny Axelsson said:I suggest you continue to use Draw and try to see what it can do, instead of comparing it with the others to find out what it can not. But if vector effects is all you need, Draw 2018 may not be what you are looking for.
No, i am not here to compare! and vector effects is not "All" i need! please...
I just want to have the ability to create nice posters with all amazing Draw features, and also... ...to have the ability to do in the same program simple effects that all other programs let me to do with one click. (no, this is not a "strength" - this is a "must" in a graphic program in 2019)
So you say that Draw is not for this kind of things?!
Please make sure that Draw should be also for that, because all your competitors are...

Like I said in previous post, it would be nice with some additional vector effects, but they are not my highest priority.I hope that we at some point also can get some of the effects that you mention, but when they get added I hope they are well thought through and stable enough to use also for the things that David mentions.

Ok, so until they have the ability for that (Sir, its 2019 now...), lets stay with the old fashioned Bevel tool from the 19 hundreds...
(Totally, you agree with me, you are just going a step more that it should be more improved. no problem, i agree with you)
Sir, also if Effects is not your "highest priority", is it not changing the fact that a vector program in 2018-2019 needs improved "one click" vector effects, and that Draw didn't update there effects (Bevel - Extrude) for years.
So, if you really want that Draw should stay behind, and keep this not improved Bevel tool forever, make sure that i am feeling like a clown, when i am asking for such "not important" things. and make sure to reply to this post, until i will give up...
Now, i'm looking for any one that's agree with my request, (maybe that Draw is really not for me, and for my kind of work? no, i'm not feeling so), and I'm looking for some "beta-tester" to send my request to the Corel Developers.

I underdstand but unfortunately this is not how it works.
