Outline pen position problem

I find corners and line caps in outline properties in CorelDraw x6.

But where is POSITION, like in previous versions?

 

I want to create outline inside object.

Behind fill is not what I want.

    That feature was never in the outline tool. It should be but it's not. Hopefully that is added next version.

      Hey CoYoT,

      Never been a way to do that with outline in CDR... Sure you aren't talking about Illy Stick out tongue

      I would use the Contour tool to get the result you are talking about.

        • The linked post is from a thread which contains only images and no explanation, but: 

          • the first is presumably meant to be a wishlist request. Nothing actually says the feature exists
          • the second, left, is a screenshot from a version of CorelDraw but it shows only features equivalent to those of X6.
          • the second, right, is probably his mockup of a suggested implementation. But I'm pretty sure that it has never existed.

          Its a good and logical suggestion, though Chris has the current answer -- try an inward contour..

      • Hi,

        I know this is an old thread, a year old when I write this. But for those who find this thread: it IS possible to accomplish now with NEW version X7.

        1. In X7 open the Object Properties Docker.
        2. Look at Outline tab.You have three rows of features.
        3. The third bottom row: "Outside Outline | Centered Outline | Inside Outline".

        That is what you were looking for and what we now have in X7.
