Limolb Posted March 31, 2020 Posted March 31, 2020 Just a thought if this is possible in a future upgrade. Can the view tool show just the page with all the boxing lines etc removed. Currently is does not remove anything outside the page extremities. This leaves an unsightly looking page as I often have graphics which are not fully on the actual working page and would love to view it as it really is. For the moment I export the page to see it correctly. Quote
Murfee Posted March 31, 2020 Posted March 31, 2020 Hi @Limolb, have you tried View>View Mode>Clip to Canvas? I do think that a Preview Mode would be better, this can remove guides, margins etc in one click Quote
Limolb Posted March 31, 2020 Author Posted March 31, 2020 Thanks Murfee. I am new to Affinity coming away from the overbearing software from you know who. So I am still trying to find my way around. I mainly make technical PDFs and like to see it cleanly on the screen. The view tool removes all the box boundaries and misspelled word underlines (I am an Aussie and spell the correct english way, not US spelling, and can't be bothered adding all the words). The hint you gave me works well, many thanks again, and I also lowered the bleed to zero to remove this as well. Now if only I can get rid of the blue margin line. But I can live with that. Still finding my way around the whole suite but quite impressed with what they have achieved. A few weird things but I will get there Quote

Limolb Posted March 31, 2020 Author Posted March 31, 2020 thanks Walt that is exactly what I needed. Ctrl Shift W toggles this. Then I found the Preview button up the top. it is hard finding everything after adobe products that I getting away from as many others are Quote
