This option enables you to set that smoothing action, much the same as applying smoothing to a typical path.
This option sets how precisely your sketched shape is matched to a recognizable shape and can be set to one of five levels ranging from Lowest (sketched shapes are not easily recognized) to Highest (sketched shapes are easily recognized), with Medium as the default and None turning the feature off completely.Īfter your sketched shape is complete, a level of node smoothing is applied in order to make object recognition precise. Here’s how the Smart Drawing tool options provide control over recognition and smoothing: Setting these interconnected options enable you to control how closely your sketched shapes are translated. You’ll find these options in the Property Bar (shown below). To do this, two key options control how accurately shapes are recognized and smoothed. But after you’re done, CorelDRAW takes a short time to translate your sketches. While the Smart Drawing tool is selected, you can take as long as you need to complete your sketched shapes. You can also sketch other complex geometric shapes such as arrows, equilateral and isosceles triangles, diamonds, trapezoids, parallelograms and so on, which translate into Perfect Shapes™, like these: Sketched ovals and circles are recognized as true ellipses that you can fashion into arcs or pie shapes if you wish. When drawing native geometric shapes, sketched boxes and squares translate into true rectangles, complete with rounded corner properties that you can apply. Sketching rough shapes that have right angle corners can produce precise 90-degree angles, like this: For example, two lines sketched side by side can be recognized as parallel straight lines. When sketching curves, this tool is capable of automatically recognizing a number of geometric characteristics.
You can use the Smart Drawing tool with a stylus and drawing tablet, but good mousing skills work just as well.
You’ll find the Smart Drawing tool (shown below) located in the Toolbox between the curve tools and the rectangle tools-or you can press the S hotkey for speedy selection. You can sketch a shape freehand-style on screen and end up with a precise vector object as a curve, native object or Perfect Shape. The Smart Drawing tool was first introduced in CorelDRAW 12 to give freehand sketching the benefit of a kind of artificial intelligence. Has anyone ever known you well enough to finish your sentences? Well, that’s sort of how one of the most intuitive drawing tools in CorelDRAW works.
