Chapter 9. Tools for Precision

CorelDraw 10 includes several tools to help you make your drawings more precise. In this chapter, you'll learn to do the following:

  • Use the horizontal and vertical rulers, change the rulers' zero point, and set the default unit of measurement.

  • Use guidelines (dashed, non-printing lines) to shape and align objects.

  • Use grids (regularly-spaced, non-printing dots or lines) to precisely position objects.

  • Customize the status bar.

  • Align objects to a common edge.
