Users could even import workspaces from CorelDRAW and CorelPHOTO-PAINT that were created in previous versions in order to make the jump to the 2017 version as seamless as possible. An improved workspace with enhanced previews, nodes and handles made it easier to edit objects and effects. Users could sketch on the go, and make quick adjustments to existing designs using a touch screen or a stylus with Tablet Mode support. By designing directly in the software, this saved designers valuable time and completely streamlined the process.
Moving away from scanning and tracing from paper, the new LiveSketch tool gave designers and artists the ability to capture any original idea instantly using a pen-enabled device. As well as including all of the intuitive features from the previous version, CorelDRAW 2017 stepped up the ability to design in real-time with LiveSketch. This was much more than an upgrade to CorelDRAW X8. Just one year after the release of CorelDRAW X8, designers were hit with a brand new product beyond the X series: CorelDRAW Graphics Suite 2017.
