ReneCGN Posted July 20, 2020 Share Posted July 20, 2020 Hello, How can I change back an Artboard to a regular layout? Thanks, René Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Lee D Posted July 21, 2020 Staff Share Posted July 21, 2020 An Artboard acts as a container for the objects within and doesn't have an option to undo/reverse. But with an Artboard selected you can use Layer > Convert Artboard to Object or copy the contents of the Artboard to a new blank document that is the same size.

walt.farrell Posted July 21, 2020 Share Posted July 21, 2020 I'm curious why, if a document has just one artboard, it would be necessary to convert back to having a canvas instead. A one-artboard document and a document with a canvas are very similar.

This is what I finally did. 5 hours ago, walt.farrell said: I'm curious why, if a document has just one artboard, it would be necessary to convert back to having a canvas instead.

I do not understand why Serif does not add the opportunity that the bleed will also be shown filled on Artboard documents. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
