    I don't used corel draw but this trick seems peculiar for any software to do [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_eek.gif[/img]

    Whilst apparently a fun trick (Yes, I know how to do it)

    It is in fact a dangerous object to have as part of a Corel drawing and can lead to all sorts of problems should you build on it.

    For example this is guaranteed to bring Draw 7 and other versions to a crashing halt (make sure you are not working on anything important).

    Using your one node shape, try trimming another closed curve or rectangle/ellipse with it.

    I don't know the full ramifications of what happens if you try to print it to a postscript device or export it to another file format.

    I treat this as a bug, I discovered it last year when a drawing I was working on kept crashing Draw, because due to over zealous node deletion, I had inadvertantly created a one node sub path in a combined object.

    Just thought you should know.

    I never used this as object for something
    and didnot know it can be dangerous
    but now, it can explain some of corel crasches.
    Thanks Peter
