How to fit objects to path in CorelDRAW 2020 for Mac?
Wow, I just installed the 2020 Mac trial version and am shocked to find that fit objects to path is STILL NOT included! It wasn't in the 2019 version, but I assumed and hoped it was an oversight and fully expected to find it in the supposedly improved 2020 version.
I use fit objects to path a lot, so absolutely cannot even consider purchasing or subscribing to the Mac version. Will just have to stick with my old Windows version for the foreseeable it seems.
What the heck is Corel playing at!
Is there any way to feed this important issue directly to Corel? I can't find a way.

If you don't mind me asking - what Windows version are you using?
By version, I was thinking of the major version of CoreldRAW, e.g., X7, X8, 2017, 2018.
I've owned various versions of Corel Draw for the last 20+ years. Am hanging on to this version, which is a proprietary version from 2016, so equivalent to X8 I believe. Rarely use Windows for anything much except Corel nowadays. Would be prepared to spend money on the full Mac version, but it's no use to me as it stands. So will plod on with what I have as have no intention of buying another Windows version.

Thank you!
The reason I was asking is that there are some problems with Fit Objects to Path in 2018 and 2019, that can be remedied (with some effort) by the user. FOTP was included in those versions at no extra charge.
If you are running X8 with FOTP added on, then no fix is required.

I understand. It's hard to be enthusiastic about a different version if it lacks capabilities on which you depend!
Interesting, thanks. As a matter of interest, is it included (and fixed) in the various 2020 Windows versions?

I think that the problems of which I am thinking have been fixed in 2020. I don't use 2020 much, but the dockers look correct, unlike 2018 and 2019.
I describe the problems in 2018 and 2019 - and the fix for them - here: #19: Fit Objects to Path - Fixing the Docker in 2018 and 2019.
