Precise

·         Precise design and illustration tools

Get dedicated illustration tools that ensure accuracy and precision for axonometric drawing, detailed callouts and expansive dimensioning. Add more detail to your technical illustrations with projected shape tools, including Thread, Well, Cylinder and Prism tools.

·         Axonometric drawing tools

Create isometric or other parallel projected technical illustrations for assembly and maintenance instructions by dynamically drawing on a projected plane. Project your existing planar objects to a desired plane in lieu of manual calculations.

·         Advanced dimension tools

Eliminate the need to draw and project dimension objects in multiple steps thanks to the advanced dimension tools. Display precise measurement values in building plans and more. Add context with enhanced projected arrows in dimensions and leader lines.

·         Precision layout and drawing tools

Capture your intended drawing shape with exactness using the Outline Position options that recognize line width measurements for object dimensions. Use Dynamic Guides so all technical illustration elements are intuitively placed and create faster with the Parallel Drawing mode.

·         Streamlined callout creation

Track essential design details and key information with dynamic callout tools. Sticky callouts will connect or “stick” to source objects as they are moved around or modified. Callouts based on object metadata are dynamic, helping you implement updates and changes.

·         Drawing scale control

Create illustrations and diagrams to scale with the drawing scale control. View the active drawing scale, switch to another preset, or set a custom scale. Corel DESIGNER retains the drawing scale when importing a vector illustration from a 3D model view so imported views are placed at scale.

Productive

·         OPTIONAL: 3D CAD repurposing capabilities

Choose the XVL Studio 3D CAD add-on option to get animation tools and work with 3D CAD Engineering files. XVL Studio 3D CAD Corel Edition adds native 3D CAD file format support to ensure support for assemblies and parts from 3D CAD systems.
Automated 3D CAD to illustration update and 3D publishing

• With the advanced XVL Studio 3D CAD add-on you can streamline Auto Detection and Update feature to update 3D-CAD-sourced illustrations whenever engineering data has been modified. Plus, you can publish animated 3D visualizations as a 3D PDF or XVL file format for instant sharing and publishing via online and mobile.

·         Hotspot capabilities

Add interactive functions to callout shapes in technical publications with the callout drawing tool in Corel DESIGNER. List metadata fields for a graphical or callout shape with the Object Data Manager docker. Edit Object data items so that shapes can be manually edited as hotspots for WebCGM output.

·         Object Styles

Ensure a consistent look, style, and layout throughout your design projects with Object Styles, Color Styles and Color Harmonies. Enjoy the new ability to add Style Sets to objects when a matching Style Set exists.

·         Equation Editor

Manage mathematical equations as editable elements using the integrated Equation Editor. Mathematical and scientific formulas can be inserted and displayed in the drawing, and then modified as needed. Existing equations from older CorelDRAW documents can be opened or imported for use in Corel DESIGNER equations.

·         Straighten and adjust photos interactively

Rotate crooked images by interactively aligning a straightening bar to an element in the photo or specifying an angle of rotation. Use the interactive Perspective Correction tool to adjust the perspective of buildings, landmarks, or objects in photos.

Innovative

·         Add Perspective effect

Quickly create the illusion of distance and depth by applying perspective to bitmaps, vector objects, or both, directly in the drawing window. It’s an ingenious tool to showcase technical illustrations in real world scenarios.

·         Apply envelopes to bitmaps

Shape a bitmap interactively by placing it in an envelope and dragging its nodes. Quickly and seamlessly blend a bitmap into an illustration by using envelope presets or crafting a custom envelope from scratch.

·         Time-saving LiveSketch™ tool

Sketch and design on the fly! LiveSketch is a revolutionary drawing tool based on the latest developments in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning. Free-form sketching converts into precise vector curves.

·         GPU accelerated vector previews

Reposition and edit complex vector shapes without taxing your system’s resources. Using the graphics processing unit (GPU) may accelerate the display, editing, and manipulation of graphics in Corel DESIGNER, CorelDRAW and Corel PHOTO-PAINT on some machines.

·         Symmetry drawing mode

Create a range of symmetrical designs, from simple objects to complex effects in real time, and boost your productivity by automating what is usually a very time-consuming workflow.

Compatibility

·         Compatibility with the latest file formats

Publish, share and output technical documents to meet technical publication standards, including the latest .DWG CAD file import, and over 100 other data file formats. Use cross-media publishing and distribution, including CGM, WebCGM (incl. S1000D 4.2), SVG and PDF, to share in a readable format

·         3D PDF publishing

Publish to 3D PDF with interactive viewing of 3D content, combined with other visual and text elements. Export from Corel DESIGNER to 3D PDF to generate output with pertinent data and graphics in one document for cross-media publishing. 3D PDF files can be viewed with free PDF reader applications.

·         Advanced automation capabilities

Create macros and add-ins with the integrated Microsoft Visual Studio Tools for Applications (VSTA) and Visual Basic for Applications (VBA). With the enhanced automation interface, developers can create utilities and macros that can interact with the drawing page, and enhance in-product applications.

·         SharePoint CMS integration

CorelDRAW Technical Suite 2019 Enterprise license customers gain exclusive additional collaboration and sharing benefits from the enhanced connectivity of Corel DESIGNER and CorelDRAW to Microsoft SharePoint sites, giving you direct access to your organization’s Document Management System (DMS) right from within the visual communication authoring applications.

·         Translation Memory System (TMS) workflow

Produce illustrations that contain descriptive text, then output directly to the Translation Memory System (TMS), and process in Corel DESIGNER for translated results to use in multilingual global technical publication.
