I have an image inside PowerClip. Every time I move the image a bit and stop editing the contents I notice that the earlier PowerClip area has left marks in the image. Actually it has cut a 1 pix line permanently on it.
I'm not sure if this happens only when editing PowerClips originally made with X5-version.
A bit annoying problem anyway. It basically destroyed all the images I used in a project...
Shouldn't happen. The PowerClip doesn't alter the clip object in any way.Please post a file including a PowerClip where this has happened.
Hmm... The problem seems to continue. I thought earlier maybe there was just some technical issue with this particular file.
Today I started a completely new project with X6 and PowerClip cut holes again in the image. This only seems to accur if I remove the background of the image in Photopaint first and the put it in powerclip. Everytime I move image inside the powerpclip and close it, it seems to create new permanent damage. If I have a normal image it's not damaging the image.
...I've been using all the CorelDraw versions since '92. Kinda sad that this the first time I have to move to Adobe products - at least until I get this figured out.
(PS. How do you share cdr-files here? It seems not to be accepting cdr/zip-files)

Ah, look carefully at the objects list in photopaint before you save the file back into CorelDraw.
If you have more than one object there when you save, you will be returning those objects separately. Moving one of them will not move the others. So if you have more than one object and no reason for keeping them separate, do object > combine > combine objects together before you save.
Also look to see if the object you are returning has a clipping path. I'm not sure, but maybe the clipping path is also being returned as a separate object.

CDR and zip files should be accepted as long as they do not exceed 256Kb.
However, have a look at http://community.coreldraw.com/content/faq.aspx?siteurl=forums.post_Reply which mentions that the accepted file types are "dependent on the sub-folder you are in (.gms in the Macros folder, .cdr in the CorelDRAW file section". Perhaps Corel has not yet configured those extensions for X6.
