Managing default object properties
The default object properties in Corel DESIGNER control the appearance of text and graphic objects in the active document. For example,
when you install Corel DESIGNER for the first time, the default properties for graphic objects determine that each new graphic object has a
black outline and no fill.
You can modify the default properties of the following types of objects: artistic media, artistic text, callout, dimension, graphic, and
paragraph text. When you modify the defaults, Corel DESIGNER automatically saves these changes to the current document. If you want to
use the custom settings in subsequent documents that you create, you can set them as the new document defaults.
