biedert Posted February 27, 2020 Posted February 27, 2020 Hey there! It's possible that this question has been asked before, but I'm really struggeling with this. Currently, the whole area outside the pages are colored in dark grey, and all objects in this area are not visible, only their outlines. I would like to be able to edit these Objects even when they're not positioned within the page. Ist there any possibility to change the color of this area to white to make the objects visible? Thanks for the support! Quote
GarryP Posted February 27, 2020 Posted February 27, 2020 Welcome to the forums. Do you have Preview Mode switched on? When Preview Mode is ON, Publisher will not show anything outside of the pages. Quote
biedert Posted March 2, 2020 Author Posted March 2, 2020 Hey Garry, thanks for the reply! Unfortunately, this is not the case. Even with Preview Mode disabled, the area outside the pages is colored dark grey. Only the outlines of objects outside the page is visible (see screenshot). Quote

biedert Posted March 2, 2020 Author Posted March 2, 2020 Aah, now we're making progress! The objects are now visible, and I managed to set the background color of the outside area to white. Thank you very much for your help! Quote
