CorelDRAW'S X3 Features - Text Property Bar Changes

Now you can choose inches for your text height. And the mirror icons are now on the Text Property Bar. While these changes may seem trivial, most laser and rotary engraver operators use inches when working with text. In pre X3 versions we could drag the object sizes icons and other icons to solve our problem. These new features just makes X3 more friendly. Now if we can just get the Align & Distribute option to appear when we select 2 lines of text.......


When you place your cursor over the Text Height units box (circled in red), the hot tips displays 'Height from top of ascender to bottom of descender'.

If you go to Tools -> Options -> Workspace ->Text, you will notice the Default Text Units. You can use millimeters, inches, picas & points, points, ciceros & didots and Q as your default. Actually this was in 12, but it didn't work. Okay, I went to help...what's a ciceros, didots or Q?
