When you split an object by using the Knife (Premium) tool , CorelDRAW lets you choose whether to convert outlines to curve objects or keep them as outlines. By default, the application automatically chooses the option that best preserves outline appearance.
You can choose outlines options from the property bar.
When splitting objects that have dashed lines, arrowheads or end caps, the Convert to objects option preserves the outline appearance better. When you choose the Automatic option for such objects, CorelDRAW converts the outlines to objects.
For information about how to use the Knife (Premium) tool, see Splitting objects.
