When developing your pay macros and creating your installers could you please consider that some of us have the more expensive technical suite and use CorelDraw X6 which came included with the package? It's my understanding that the version of CorelDrawX6 is completely identical however some of the CorelDraw Macros installers will not function properly if you are using Technical Suite Vs Graphics Suite hence the installer will not work. Is this a problem on Corel's end? Should they make this information more readily available when allowing developers to create apps for Corel products?
Hi.
Technical suite and Draw each creates a different gms.
You cannot create a Technical Suite macro with CorelDraw.

Technical Suite is not a Program though. It is a package. I understand Designer and Draw use different GMS files but my question is on the difference creating an installer that installs to either CorelDraw included within Graphics Suite or CorelDraw included within Technical Suite. I don't need a macro for Designer.
Jemmyell can explain this better because we actually purchased DXFTool from you. My company uses Graphics Suite X5 and purchased DXFTool Pro. I upgraded my software recently to Technical Suite X6 recently and had to update your plugin. I downloaded your DXFTool Pro from you and told you I couldn't install your plugin because the installer wouldn't recognize my installation for CorelDraw X6 which forced me not to be able to use my updated CorelDraw X6until you were able to make your installer compatible. Which you did thank you very much.

Oh and yes I am using all of the GMS files from CorelDraw X3 in my new CorelDraw X6 included in Technical Suite without fail. I didn't bother trying them in designer.
Hi,
Yes, you obviously found the GMS folder by just looking for it. The application installers need a better way, that is why I documented the registry keys I use to decide where to put what.
I'm glad I could help, but really it was you who helped me by reporting the problem in the first place.
