Hi,
We use CorelDraw to create vector files for an industrial robot and need it to follow a certian path.
We want it connected like the blue vector, but when we apply join curves in CorelDraw, we get what seems to be random results.
Somtimes we get the wanted S-shape, sometimes boxes like in the picture and sometimes a mix of both.
Is there anyway to control this?
We often work with large files, and connecting each of them manually is a lot of work.
Is there any other tools, apart from join curves that could help with this?
Could you show a before and after of what you start with and the result you want to end with? From that image and your post I understand that you want the result of the blue line, but I don't know what you started with - what got connected to what? I also get that you don't want the result of the pink line, but don't know what it looked like to start with either. I could just be foggy this Monday morning, and not seeing the obvious.
I may not even able to help, but if someone will be able to I think the clarification would be useful.
Hi, any help is appreciated!
We have a plugin to generate S-shaped curves like this for carpet production:
The problem is to connect it back to an S-shape if we for some reason need to cut it. For example if we cut a small piece out from a big design to make a sample:
Join curves sometimes gives the S-shape and sometimes the blocks. Do you know if there is anyway to control it?
I was also thinking about scripts but I have no experience in writing them myself. I tried to record but could not make it work.
you could select two necessary shapes and use command "Back Minus Front" (or "Front Minus Back")
Yes, that one works good if I have only 1 shape in one layer. The problem is rather connecting the ends after I cut it.
Use the Trim command instead, that should keep your connecting lines.
