So is there any way within coreldraw that I can make just specific parts of a layer transparent? Or is there even a way that I could create a fading to white effect on the edges. I've also tried exporting both layers and making one gif image but that also seems to muck up my resolution on my contour layers. I also tried editing the hillshade bitmap which worked fine but then I wasn't able to export and edit the contour layer - it's not a bitmap and if I copy and paste it from corel draw into corel photopaint (?) I seem to lose resolution. It also doesn't seem to fade both layers but just the lens on top of the hillshade layer. I've tried selecting the two layers and using the interactive transparency tool but I can't change the square shape to rectangle shape so the tops of my rectangle do not become faded. I want to try make the edges of the map transparent, and not in a square or round shape though at this point I'd take even that. I also have various other layers but it's these two layers (3 items) that I would like to work with. I have a hillshade bitmap file in one layer with a lens on top of it, and contour lines in another area. From them, you have to select "Page" tab.I just started learning corel draw 12 graphics suite and have a question about making layers transparent. A small window will emerge on the screen having different tabs to select. To make background transparent image, you have to create drawing using Inkscape provided tools only.ģ.
