• | To distort an object |
• | To remove a distortion |
• | To copy a distortion |
You can apply three types of distortion effects to shape objects.
From left to right: Original image; Zipper and Twister distortions applied; Pull distortion applied
You can create an even more dramatic effect by applying a new distortion to an already distorted object. You don’t lose the effect of the original distortion if, for example, you apply a zipper distortion on top of a twister distortion. The CorelDRAW application also lets you remove and copy distortion effects.
