Hi all, i am having trouble with tracing bitmaps to vector in X5.
The problem is still occurring.
In my instance I select trace bmp - outline trace - line art ... i am presented with a choice to "reduce bitmap" or "cancel".
If I cancel corel crashes and if I select reduce bitmap then it proceeds to corel autotrace window and performs an initial trace with a default setting.
I then increase detail to near max and it retraces. If it completes this retrace without crashing then i select ok to return to drawx5. It then crashes.
Hi have updated to .net 4.5.2 , CDGSX5 sp3 and applied hotfix 4.
I have also tried clearing the temp folder after reboot.
What next?
windows 7, Acer i5 laptop, Coreldraw Graphics Suite X5 sp3
Corel Trace surely needs some more love from Corel Devs.
Does the error say something related to redustributable C++ ? If so you might have to update windows with the C++ updates too.

Hi Anand thanks for the reply.
Yes, C++ is mentioned at the top. I hadnt noticed until you mentioned it!
Is this what you mean?
I have just installed Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2012 Update 4 and rebooted windows. The problem persists!
Any ideas?
Hello bishopflynn; Once you install something or up date you need to reboot the computer.

Thanks Sign Guy, thats what I meant (windows/computer reboot).
There were 3 exe files to run .
vcredist_x64.exe
vcredist_x86.exe
vcredist_arme.exe (this exe would not run)
I also found
Visual C++ Redistributable Packages for Visual Studio 2013 at http://www.microsoft.com/en-ie/download/details.aspx?id=40784.
Should I try this next?
It seems that you are running a 32Bit version of Windows OS. You need vcredist_x86.exe file to be installed. You may set your Windows to install updates automatically. By this you will not have to keep checking for OS updates.
