I need help please. I have Coreldraw 11 and I am trying to draw the
shape of a film ticket, you know the ones that come in a roll and have
a hole stamped into the middle, where the tickets join each other.

Basically the shape is a rectangle, with the 4 corners being an
inverted semi circle.

I have drawn the four sides and I have drawn four semi circles for the
corners (8 items in total) I have put them altogether to make the
shape I want, but I now want to fllod fill the ticket with a colour.
Because the finished item is not 1 single item, it will not let me
flood fill the ticket.

Can some kind soul please tell me how to do this, I have tried the
combine and the group commands, but this does not do the trick.

I have posted this in the Corel.Graphics group as well.

It's been awhile since I used Draw 11, so I can't remember if it supported the
"filet/scallop/chamfer" docker, but if you check under Window - Dockers and
find that docker down near the bottom, you'll have done yourself a big favor.

If it is there, search Help for "scallop" to find how to use that docker.
Remember you have to convert your rectangle to curves, first.

If it *isn't* there, stick a follow-up on this thread, and perhaps some kind
soul will walk you through the armstrong method of doing the same thing ;-)

Cheers

Thanks Daytripper, checked the help on CorelDraw, and no Chamfer
option there. nor Scallop.

Do you have Arrange - Shaping - Simplify, in CD11 ?

Lay a circle over each corner of the rectangle, select 1 circle and the
rect, and simplify.
