Hi everyone. I am new to corel and I have the Corel Draw X5 and I can not power clip a picture. I clicked on the bezier tool and traced the image. I went to power clip and when I clicked on the line I just made with the black arrow it says , the object I selected is invalid. Any ideas. Fred
This helps gaining time when using powerclip. maybe it will help
Hi! Power clip doesn't work by me. I do all correctly, but when i show the container object, the picture just disappears - doesn't exist anymore. Any ideas? I tried with .bmp and .jpg formats - it doesn't matter. I tried with ellispe and star - the same result. I really don't understand. I hope someone can find the reason for my unsuccess.

Please post a file with a powerclip that doesn't show.
http://dox.bg/files/dw?a=d3c2273b88 - this is direct to a file.
I understood - from the Effects Menu doesn't work. But if i move the picture with pressed right button - then all is ок. I have an option and it works.
Had a look at your file and the clip is there but totally outside the container, that why you can't see it.
I assume you're one of the guys who expect the clip to be centered in the container, and there is an option for that: Options > Edit > "Auto-center new powerclip contents".Most of us prefer to leave it unchecked and position the clip where it's supposed to be and then use the menu command (or preferably via a shortcut key) to get it into the container, in exactly the right position.
You know it is rather easy to adjust the position afterwards too? Just Ctrl+click the container and you'll get into edit mode. Move the clip and then either click the "Finish Editing Object" button next to the horizontal scroll bar, or simply Ctrl+click outside the container.
Thank you very much, Ronny. I really respect people like you that spend time to help other people. I use CorelDraw from 4 days :) This is the 2-nd thing, that i learn from you. The first time i just read an your post.
