ive been using Corel for a while now, & 1 thing as always bothered me. when centering a document or graphic that is on multiple layers how do you center it without combining everything onto a new or already combind layer. ie. text on layer 1 image on layer 2 if you group it it all goes on the same or diffrent layer
This is actually quite an interesting dilemma. Ariel, If I understand correctly, the scenario is that you have several shapes across several layers but also spread out all over the workspace. How would you go about selecting all those shapes and center the your selection to page yet keep all the shapes on their respective layers. As soon as you group them they will all end up on whatever layer is active at the time. Sounds like a macro project to me.

group each layer (you can lock other layers, or just select each layer) then select all objects and center?
Ding! Ding! Ding! as seen here
Sub CenterShapes()
Dim sr As ShapeRange
Dim pw#, ph#
ActiveDocument.ActivePage.GetSize pw, ph
ActiveDocument.ReferencePoint = cdrCenter
Set sr = ActiveSelectionRange
If sr.Count = 0 Then Exit Sub
sr.SetPosition pw / 2, ph / 2
End Sub
