In all previews versions of CorelDraw including 2018 when i select F10 and then F2 - zoom, by selecting selecting or pressing F2 all my nodes get deselected. I will attach a video https://photos.app.goo.gl/6zqZgDMDSVubd5ML8
If someone can tell me how to fix that that will be great
I see the same thing in 2019 - and that is really bad!Using Zoom One-shot (F2) should not change the visibility of nodes.If I have Object Details visible in the Status Bar, it still shows the nodes as being selected. It is the display on the screen that is wrong.I think that the nodes are in fact still selected. If I use nudge, for example, the nodes move (and become visible again).
This appears to still be an issue after three updates.If I select a couple of nodes with the Shape Tool and then zoom in with F2, then the curve looks like it is not selected but I can still see some but not all nodes (selected or not), or there are no nodes at all in worst case.Mouse wheel zooming seems to work but that's not how I want to work.Makes Draw 2019 unusable to me. Edit: Mouse wheel scrolling after zooming in appears to refresh the screen.A workaround but not acceptable after three updates.

Another way to refresh it is to Pan a little bit (I use the middle mouse button for that).
As you note, that's a workaround; one more little annoyance to experience every... single... time.
Eskimo, Would the ZoomToNodes macro apply here?

Good question!
I just tried them in 2019, and the "Zoom to Selection Plus" and "Zoom to Selection Plus Light" subs from my Zoom to Selection Plus macro seemed to work correctly without messing up the visual indication that curves are in node editing mode, or that nodes are selected. Yay!
I was disappointed to find that CorelDRAW's own "Zoom to Fit" command causes display problems similar to what we see using Zoom One-Shot. Boo! Hiss!
Glad that at least your zoom macros work, Eskimo (I checked), that may help me to stay sane if I decide to continue trying to use 2019.
