I have been using Corel for over 20 years, and have never needed support. I do most of my work editing nodes within a drawing for creating continuous line patterns that are repeatable.
For years I have simple "nudged" the first and last point of a complex curve to the appropriate position. Now I want to simplify that by entering in the coordinates for the node.
I always have to add the information on the coordinates of the selected note to the Status Bar, so I am surprised that I can't find an option for editing the position.
Any help would be appreciated. If this option doesn't exist, I'd also like to know so I don't continue my snark hunt.
Thanks!

Open the Object Coordinates docker.Select your object.This will make the docker jump to Multi-point line mode, and all node positions will show.Select a node from the list and the node gets highlighted. You have to guess which node is which, since you cannot select a node with the Shape tool and get it highlighted in the list that way.When you find the node you want to move, click the coordinates in the list once again, to make it editable.Change to your liking.When you're done with all nodes, click Create object, and a copy of your object will be created.Unfortunately it doesn't keep the curve information, everything will be straight lines.Select the original object and move the appropriate nodes until they snap to the nodes on the copy.Snap to Objects must be enabled of course.Finally, delete the copy.
This may seem complicated but is quite easy actually.
