In previous editions of Corel Draw I was able to set up a multipage document and have objects that were placed outside of the page area (i.e. on the 'Desktop') stay on successive pages. This useful feature (to me) seems to have disappeared from Corel Draw 2019. Was this a documented change that I have missed somewhere?

This behavior is now optional, and is part of the settings menu for the Objects docker.
If you uncheck "Keep Desktop Objects on Layer" - it is checked by default - then you should have the page/desktop behavior of the more recent previous versions.
Sorry to resurrect this from a couple months ago, but this simply does not work. In the 2019 trial version right now. Cannot justify updating if I can't figure this one out. If I drag an object to the empty space outside the canvas, I need it there on all pages. That's the purpose of that space, a common's area for objects I want access too from page to page. I have unchecked this option, then drug my object to outside of the canvas, still disappears when switching pages...?
