I am working in 9.0, and when I select the eraser tool and try to erase an object (lets say part of a circle), I end up with a "path" of where I dragged the eraser, and a lot of nodes. What am I doing wrong? Thanks in advance, Bob

what exactly are you erasing? I've used Corel for several years now, and as of yet can't remember ever having a need to use the eraser. There are usually simpler, more accurate methods of doing things than freehanding things, such as the eraser tool. Just curious........

I am a total newbie with Corel but I tried something that may work for you.
I made a circle I used the Knife Tool to cut off a section (make sure auto close on cut is 'off) (make sure save as one object is 'off') I used the Shape Tool to select the portion(s) I didn't want and deleted it
Would have been easier in this case just to start with an arc but this technique will work on other shapes too.
Good luck! Dave
