To change a line color, I go to the Pen icon => Select Outline Color => Scroll down the Color Selection list => Select Color => Select OK.
Isn't there a faster way? I guess Shift-F12 is just as fast as selecting the icon, but then more steps.
==> Why isn't line color connected to the spectrum of color blocks in the Corel side window? Why can't I simply select a line and then select a color from the color blocks? That seems stupidly intuitive.
Tks.
Select your line and right click on the palette color block
To change the default line color right click on the palette color block with nothing selected.
The change the default fill color with nothing selected click on the palette color block. If you do not want a default fill color with nothing selected click the palette color block with a diagonal red line.
For a selected object if you click on a palette color block and hold for a moment you have a choice of shades of fills
Brilliant! This is such a great forum with super helpful people!!
But why did they make it a right-click? Every other color selector is left-click, no?
Thank you!
Only with curves / lines it's RIGHT click, for fills its the usual left click.
I suppose CorelDRAW did that to differentiate between applying a color to a curve vs object fills.
You know you can make your own tool bar with commands you often use
I have mine under my custom palette.
I also have programmable keypads for my often used commands. Saves so much time and bother.
Glad I could help
Cheers
