Hi there,
Many thanks for the hard work and it is much appreciated. I have used your previous implementation (the simple one) with CDx5 and was perfect. However, recently I have installed CDx8 and tried to install both old and new implementations of your Latex4CoreDRAW but no luck. What I have so far is the Latex tab is showing in the Dockers, but it is empty. I have tried to assign a shortcut so I can add an equation, but there is nothing related to latex in the customization window. Can you please let me know if I need to do something, or at least the default shortcut.

Kind regards,

Did you unlock the file as described above? It seems that the DLL is not loaded by CorelDraw for any reason.

Thank you @janbender for your prompt response. I believe they are unlocked as when I right-click any of them and select Properties there is no warning message or a button to click to unlock.

Kind regards,
Harith

It is hard for me to find the problem in this case. It seems that CorelDraw is not able to load the DLL. Maybe you can try to put in the PATH. Unfortunately, I don't know how to find out where CorelDraw searches for the DLL and why it refuses to load it. If you find out how to solve the problem, please tell me. I will put the info in the readme file.

Hi janbender,
I was checking the different files (as unfortunately, I do not have VisualStudio to open the project) and found there are two files missing from the folder that "may" causing the issue. So under the "AppUI.xslt" file the "Latex4CorelDraw.dll" and "Latex4CorelDraw.DockerUI" files are mentioned in the following line:
hostedType="Addons\Latex4CorelDraw\Latex4CorelDraw.dll,Latex4CorelDraw.DockerUI"
However, I can not find these files anywhere in the main folder or any of the subfolders. Do you think adding these files will tackle the issue?

Regards,
Harith

Hi,

there is no file called "Latex4CorelDraw.DockerUI" and the DLL is in the release ZIP file.

I do not think this is the problem. It is hard to find the problem for me since on my computer everything works fine.

Regards,

Jan

I use corel x7, and solve compiling again in visual studio according to the guide. In the end I just replace the Latex4CorelDraw.dll file in the original one. for some reason this original Latex4CorelDraw.dll file in corel shows empty.
