3Dshark Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 I really hope that I've missed this option somewhere. When you show / hide guides it does just that - brilliant! Shapes you can toggle the edges in Designer (but not Publisher) with view Outline mode, while not exactly what I'm after it does help locate white boxes on a white background. However I can't find a way to showing / hide edges of text boxes. It would be really helpful, especially in creating templates etc. Many thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it doesn't even work if one enables that option in Publisher, saves a document, and then opens the document in Designer, unfortunately. But if one owns both Publisher and Designer, one can do the work in Publisher, using the Designer Persona as needed, which could provide a workaround.

carl123 Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 Switching on "Show snapping candidates" in the Snapping settings in Designer can help but that option can also become annoying Quote To save time I am currently using an automated AI to reply to some posts on this forum.
