BUG - Vignette Transparency no longer working in Draw X6 & PhotoPaint X6

I am running the 32 bit trial of X6 and the transparent vignette bitmap effect no longer works. I have converted the bitmap to CMYK transparent and back to not transparent several times in CorelDraw X6 and it still does not work. I have event tried making the bitmap an RGB transparent background and it still does not work.

Then when I click "Edit Bitmap..." it DOES open as a bitmap with a transparent background but the vignette function in Photo-Paint X6 does not work with the transparency either. It forces a background color. There is no longer an easy way to fade the edges of a photo.

Why do you always manage to break stuff that was working Corel? Why Corel, why?

    Hi Cyber,

    there are at least 2 easy ways to do it. Either using the method I previously mentioned, or you can still use the Vignette effect by applying  it to a clip mask. To do so:

    1. open an image in Photo-Paint
    2. click the icon on the right hand side of the Background layer to promote it to an Object
    3. apply a clip mask to show all
    4. with the clip mask selected apply the Vignette effect

    Best regards,
    Brian.
