Corel question about Keith's acrylic box

[Ed Lang]

I would like to cut out one of Keith's acrylic box today. I only have 1/8" material. I will need to resize the tabs for the box joints so they do not stick out too far.

I bet there is a better way than to move each point one by one by hand and use a grid line to match them up.

Since I am new to Corel, all suggestions are welcomed!

Use the knife tool. It's one of the tools in the second box down. Do a guideline where you want to chop off the tabs, then select the piece,
and click the knife tool on the first place of the hairline to be cut then last place to be cut. Then select and delete the unwanted tip pieces.

Thank you Joe!

I just played around with the knife tool and it will do exactly what I want to do.

There is so much to learn about Corel, I need to watch the training videos again on disk 4!

Take care.
