CorelDRAW Outline issue
« on: February 28, 2020, 03:21:16 PM »
I know, all the cool kids eschew outlines in favor of contours, but what do I have to do in the Outline Pen dialogue box to fix the gap I get here?
It doesn't happen on all letters.
That rug really tied the room together, did it not?

First make sure the nodes on the top of that ‘B’ aren’t wonky.
If they’re okay, go into outline properties and putz around with the outline settings.
Could be a few things but try the Line Caps setting first. Change it to round cap ......by default it’s set to square cap and can cause a bunch of issues.
