Corel Draw... Steps to stroke an element?
« on: February 18, 2016, 09:24:42 AM »
Good morning,

Since I am not a Corel Draw users, I need to know the steps to stroke the art or an element with a spot color and the other steps to choke the element.  Can my Corel users help me?

  That's an easy enough one... select the object, select the pen icon on the toolbar,
set your outline and outline color from the selections, done. To choke, do the same
but just make the outline white.

And of course, size accordingly if using the standard outline position that straddles the edge.
That rug really tied the room together, did it not?

Not sure if I understand the question but we often simply add a contour either inside or outside the object.
Break the curve apart or retain the association based on what we are trying to do. the beauty here is you can have any width you want and have multiple layers all based on what you are trying to achieve.
