I am now using CorelDRAWX8 I used to be able to edit a bitmap from draw it would open up paint then i could make my changes save and it would be back in draw now the edit bitmap button is not active how can I fix this even if I right click is does not give me the option to edit the bitmap please help thanks Deb
Is this the full version or student? You did install Photo-PAINT correct?
X8 is the last version of CorelDRAW installed X8?
On the Corel forum to the right just under the text typing box.
OOOOppps saw it clicked it
David,
I apologize I am a bit technically challenged LOL here is screen shot as you can see edit button not enable and not able to launch either
I'm a bit hesitant to give advice on the home version since I don't have it but f I were in your position, I would make sure I had everything required to install X8, make sure my system had internet access, launch CorelDraw, make sure I was logged into my account.
Close everything except Windows, uninstall X8, (removing all user files), reboot the system.
Install X8 (do not use the default install directory unless you have to), the default is c:\programs\xxxxx\, I use c:corelx8\xxxx\, the x's being the standard install folder structure. After installation if ask sign into your account.
DO NOT LAUNCH THE PROGRAM, reboot the system, hold the F8 key on your keyboard and launch the CorelDRAW, when ask, reset to default work space, check for updates, install the updates, reboot the system.
Hold the F8 key launch CorelDRAW, once it opens close it, hold the F8 key and launch Corel Photo-PAINT, when ask, reset to default work space, close it.
Launch CorelDRAW import an image and see if edit bitmap works.
