Ok! So simply we can say that mode means the shape of your selection. There are two option types in the mode i.e Rectangle and Lasso. If you choose rectangle then your selection will appear in the shape of rectangle like a rectangular marquee tool and on the other side if you choose lasso then it will use like you are making a free hand selection.

• Sample all layers

It means you can sample the layers. If the sample all the layers is active then it will work as a single active layer. 

• Auto Enhance

If this option is on then the edges of your selection looks smooth and it’s vice versa.

• Object subtract

Let’s categorize them in different terms.

• Page Layout InDesign has a multi page layout. You can collect raster and graphical content with text in a layout. On the other hand in CorelDraw it is difficult to work with so many text and graphical content together, because it does not contain any layout.
• Uses InDesign is mainly used for publication purposes like to make magazines or newspapers. While CorelDraw is used to make logo, icon, vector illustrations etc.
• History Initially pagemaker is used to make multi page layout but after that adobe company introduced InDesign software as a replaceable software. InDesign is known as better software than pagemaker.
• CorelDraw can make multi pages layout but there is some limitation of it. It can’t adjust too much content. For this thing an application was also introduced i.e corel ventura. This software is not used yet.
• Page numbers InDesign automatically detects the number of pages you are using. On the other hand Adobe Illustrator does not give any idea of pages that are used.
• Type wrapping tool Type wrapping tool is in both the software but InDesign type wrapping tool is far better than CorelDraw.
