Don't you hate it when the computer doesn't do what it should? Which bit exactly is not working! That happened to me today but thanks to searching on Google I found a forum (which for once I could understand) that has solved my frustration - what a relief!
I use Corel Draw a lot - I'm not a real expert but neither am I a virgin. I started out many years ago with CorelDraw 3 which was brilliant - but it's got so much cleverer since then. I use Corel Draw to demonstrate the capabilities of Epson large format printers. Corel Draw is also the tool I use to design our catalogue for printing and to make PDF's to view our Sign Holders catalogue online.
So I've loaded Corel Draw on my new Dell computer at home (I've had several Dells over the years) only to find that my mouse pointer is misaligned with the objects it's meant to click on. For precision graphics a pointer which is not aligned is a hopelessly frustrating situation. Anyway, after hunting around for my setup 'mistake' I tried doing a Google search.
It turns out that there are other guys out there who've had exactly the same problem and eventually somebody has posted a fix. Apparently the problem stems from a graphics card (which only applies to the upgrade card for which Dell charge extra). Having now downloaded a new driver - which seemed to be a very big file (you wonder what else you're downloading) - phew it actually works correctly.
