Corel Help

[Randy Walker]

I hope someone can help me with this small problem. I have to make an identical copy of this crown ¼ inch bigger all the way around and I don’t remember how. I know there is a tool for it but I have forgotten the name of it and where it’s hidden in Corel 4. I will be cutting the front from one gold and I need to cut a back ¼” bigger for it to attach to from black. I would really appreciate a little direction.

Thank you

Without opening your drawing the usual way to do this is with the contour tool. You may have to experiment a little with the settings but you should be able to arrive at +.25" fairly easily.

Yep, just "contour" to outside by .25" (in X4: Windows Menu, Dockers -> Contour). Of course, that just does the outside edge and not the design in the middle.

CONTOUR TOOL arrrg I could not remember that for anything. Thank you so much. I have about 54 signs that I am doing (6 of this one) and I have been racking my brain trying to remember how to do this.
Help like this is the reason it says contributor next to my name.
Thank you
