LIST AND EXPLAIN 10 TOOLS AND USES IN CORELDRAW GRAPHIC PACKAGE
1. Outline Pen Tool
- Use: Adjusts the outline properties of an object, such as thickness, style, and color. It’s useful for
customizing the borders around shapes and text to enhance visual impact.
2. Weld Tool
- Use: Combines two or more objects into a single object by merging their outlines. It’s useful for
creating complex shapes by joining simpler ones.
3. Trim Tool
- Use: Trims one object using the shape of another. This tool is perfect for cutting away parts of an
object based on the shape of another overlapping object.
4. Intersect Tool
- Use: Creates a new object at the intersection of two or more selected objects. It’s used to extract
the overlapping section of shapes for more intricate designs.
5. Align and Distribute Tool
- Use: Aligns objects relative to each other or the drawing page. This tool is essential for organizing
elements symmetrically or distributing them evenly across the canvas.
6. Zoom Tool
- Use: Zooms in or out on the design canvas for better viewing. This tool helps in focusing on specific
areas for detailed work or getting an overall view of the design.
7. Gradient Fill Tool
- Use: Adds smooth color transitions between two or more colors in an object. It’s ideal for creating
shading effects or adding dimension to flat objects.
8. Blend Tool
- Use: Creates a progression of objects between two objects by blending their shapes and colors. It’s
helpful for creating smooth transitions between shapes or generating motion-like effects.
9. Bitmap to Vector Tool (PowerTRACE)
- Use: Converts bitmap images (raster) into editable vector graphics. This tool is crucial when you
need to scale images without losing quality or for converting hand-drawn sketches into vector format.
10. Extrude Tool
- Use: Adds depth to objects, turning flat shapes into 3D-like figures. It’s useful for creating 3D effects
such as cubes, text, or any object that needs a solid appearance.
