Found it - View > View Mode > Clip to Canvas 🙂

Hi - I've changed my pasteboard colour, but how can I see the content which flows onto the paste1board? Like you can in Illustrator, InDesign and Photoshop? Thanks.

APub shows all bounding boxes (without handles) of all frame-text objects – unless you have "Preview Mode" activated. Thanks Thomaso. I'll be working in Preview Mode from now on. Appreciate your feedback guys. Thank you.

I'm not a UX designer, so I'll leave the logistics to Affinity to figure out. I come from InDesign so having this function makes perfect sense to me - Hide Frame Edges or Boxes - YouTube. I only need to see a Frame Edge or Bounding Box when I click on single element or multiple elements using Shift, otherwise complex layouts with multiple assets look incredibly messy with dozens of boxes. Not to mention overly confusing. I only need to see a Frame Edge or Bounding Box when I click on an element and that's it. Otherwise it's just visual clutter, to me anyway. What is the benefit to having Frame Edges or Bounding Boxes active all the time? I don't see one. It's a needless mess.

I want the ability to check a tick box to hide bounding boxes permanently. Using space bar and other workarounds doesn't cut it. For me, a designer of 25 years experience, a bounding box is just extra screen clutter I can do without. It's hard to believe it's 2021 yet this simple function hasn't been coded into Affinity apps. CS had it 2003! C'mon Affinity! You can add this ability with your eyes closed. Make it so...
