Recent emailed iPhone 7+ images from a friend are locking up PhotoPaint X8 and then closing the programme, very slowly! Earlier images from the same source open without any problem. Is this an Apple or Corel problem?
Funny thing, my X8 just started doing this last week. here is the work around, open up a new page and then import it. It won't just auto open in Corel draw anymore if you click on the image, it crashes Corel.
Yes, that Import method works. I then tried again to directly open the image from the stored folder, and X8 crashed again even though it was still showing the imported one OK !
The import method of course is not a work around for opening the file directly by just using Open.
I know, But I don't know why this started happening, I use Corel all day long on 2 computers (yes i have 2 separate Corel's) And needed to open bmp's Etc. I found this did work. I agree it should work like it is supposed to, but until i can figure out WHY, this works. We are updating to the newest Corel so i didn't waste my time figuring out what caused the problem.
Sorry I can't help it opened perfectly for me do you want me to send a CPT file?
I was answering Snugglebugs post, and posted I AM having the same problem. It started happening to me a few days ago. I COULD reset Corel, But since we are upgrading to 2018 I was opening up a new page and importing for now. I was replying that THAT is a quick fix for now. But it SHOULD work as intended, I agree.
