We have just purchased X6 and are having difficulty editing a bitmap. Its unable to be selected.
After reading your posts here we have tried the following which we find quite annoying for a new program.
Surely this is something simple we have missed. All we have done is installed the X6 and run the program , clicked on a bitmap and nothing ??? This has really left a bad experience especially when we just purchased this program and it cant even edit an image. The customer support was terrible , I had to ring back becasue the person couldnt hear me about 8 times. It was only a search on the web that led me here.
I dont think we will be recommending corel to anyone soon. Hopefully someone can help us.
When you say editing, what are you trying to do? Change colors, convert it into a vector artwork, delete sections, etc...?
It says in the manual, that if you want to edit a bitmap in corel, selct the bitmap then select the edit bitmap button , but the edit bitmap button is not selectable. It says by selecting this you cen edit in Photo Paint , easy but doesnt work.
One other thing -- I believe CorelDraw only checks these associations when it starts, so if there was no CPT association in photopaint, you need to close CorelDraw and restart it before trying the edit again.
Hi Harry we have done this multiple times and it makes no difference. Even after a reboot and reinstall.
I think we use AVG ?
I have just spoken to IT and they have removed AVG from one computer , we have done a repair , we'll let you know how this goes.
Happy easter.
