Go to the Basic Shape on your left tool bar and get the flyout - pick basic shapes - then go to the your top tool bar and you will see a slanted rectangle - press the arrow key - you will then see your triangle with the top cut off - select it.<br /> Then to round the corners you will need to go to the top tool bar and select windows - dockers - fillet/scallop/chamfer - you will get that docker flyout - from there select fillet and the radius you wish on the corners then click apply - you will get a message that it is going to change you shape to curves - click OK </p> <p>It is simple once you have done one or two - experiment a little with the basic shapes and the filet/scallop/chamfer docker </p> <p>Hopefully you can follow all that - I do not teach Corel - obviously :-$</p> <hr /><a name="a5469_3"></a><p><b>From: Jer (DIAMOND)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=5469.3">#3</a>]<br /> 8 Dec 2006<br /><b>To: JHayes55</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=5469.2">#2</a>] 8 Dec 2006</p> Hey thanks. That will work. I knew where to get the shape, rounding the corners was where I was stuck.<hr /><a name="a5469_4"></a><p><b>From: JHayes55</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=5469.4">#4</a>]<br /> 8 Dec 2006<br /><b>To: Jer (DIAMOND)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=5469.3">#3</a>] 8 Dec 2006</p> Glad to help - I think that docker is new in 13 - I do not remember it in earlier versions but it is quite handy.<hr /><a name="a5469_5"></a><p><b>From: Jer (DIAMOND)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=5469.5">#5</a>]<br /> 9 Dec 2006<br /><b>To: JHayes55</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=5469.4">#4</a>] 9 Dec 2006</p> I got back on the job, got my shape but can not find fillet/scallop/chamfer in my docker. I searched in Corel help and can't find anything. Is it possible this docker is not available in 13?<hr /><a name="a5469_6"></a><p><b>From: bluepaw</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=5469.6">#6</a>]<br /> 9 Dec 2006<br /><b>To: Jer (DIAMOND)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=5469.5">#5</a>] 10 Dec 2006</p> <p>Windows<br /> Dockers<br /> It is about the 20th. selection down the list.</p><hr /><a name="a5469_7"></a><p><b>From: JHayes55</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=5469.7">#7</a>]<br /> 9 Dec 2006<br /><b>To: Jer (DIAMOND)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=5469.5">#5</a>] 10 Dec 2006</p> <p>BluePaw is exactly correct - got to windows then Dockers (down about 7) <br /> then down 20 to fillet/scallop/chamfer.

I said I have 13. The fact is I have Corel 12. You guys should know what I have, not what I said I have. I feel pretty stupid now. Now I am wondering what business I am in, is it engraving or engineering?<hr /><a name="a5469_9"></a><p><b>From: JHayes55</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=5469.9">#9</a>]<br /> 10 Dec 2006<br /><b>To: Jer (DIAMOND)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=5469.8">#8</a>] 11 Dec 2006</p> <p>In your case you may have a hard time finding it in X3 if you only have 12 :P </p> <p>Don't feel bad we all do something stupid from time to time. </p> <p>If you can send me the specifics of the drawing you want I will try to make it for you and send it to you in V12. </p> <p>Otherwise I suggest that when you can upgrade to x3 - I love it after getting used to most of the new upgrades in it.</p> <hr /><p align="center">Show messages: <a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=5469.1">All</a>  <a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=5469.1">1</a>  2-9</p> <h4><a href="lthread_list.php?webtag=EE">Back to thread list</a> | <a href="llogout.php?webtag=EE">Login</a></h4> <h6>© 2025 <a href="http://www.beehiveforum.net/" target="_blank">Project Beehive Forum</a></h6> </body>
