Operation Manual

Transparency

of an object to reveal image
elements underneath. You can
apply uniform, fountain, texture,
or bitmap pattern
transparencies.

Student X7, click the Object transparency tool , and
use the controls on the property bar, or use the
Transparency control in the Object Manager docker.

click Object
 Object Properties, and use the controls in
the Transparency area of the Object Properties docker.

You can trace bitmaps in one step by using the Quick Trace
command, or you can use the PowerTRACE controls to
preview and adjust the traced results.
To trace a bitmap, select the bitmap in CorelDRAW Home
& Student X7, and click Trace bitmap on the property
bar.
Exporting files
You can export (File  Export, or Ctrl + E) and save images
to a variety of file formats that can be used in other
applications. For example, you can export a file to the Adobe
Illustrator (AI), PDF, or JPEG format. Some file formats may
not support all the features that a CorelDRAW (CDR) file has
so it is a good idea to save the original file as a CDR file before
exporting it.
The Export for web dialog box (File
 Export for  Web)
provides common export controls and lets you preview the
results of various filter settings before you export the file. In
addition, you can specify object transparencies and matting
colors for anti-aliased edges — all with real-time preview.

In the Customization list of categories, click Commands,
