Having an odd problem with Corel today. So odd I;m not sure I can explain it. Just FYI I've been using Corel since V3 and I've been a full time laser engraver since 1998 so I should know what I'm doing.
Here's what happens -- I have a file open -- Have a line of type with: 2007 and want to change it to 2010. Click on 2007, click on the text tool, cursor blinks after the '7'. I normally would backspace 2 spaces back and type '10', right? Well, when I backspace over the '07' the 07 stays (the cursor is between the zeros) -- then, if I wait a few seconds the text block forms around the '20' and the '07' become it's own text block -- all without me doing anything. I guess I'm wondering if anyone has seen this happen? Any clues? It's a new one on me. Have rebooted Corel and the computer. I have to say it doesn't do it 100% of the time but getting worse as far as I can tell.
Losing my mind --- certainly possible, at least that what it reals like right now. Hope one of you GURU's out there have an idea what this might be. Any help greatly appreciated.
