Alexis3 Posted November 29, 2020 Share Posted November 29, 2020 Hey so this is my problem: when any layer go away from the artboard i can't see it. As i remember from Illustrator i can see the object but maybe not export it once not on the artboard. Any solution for that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CLC Posted November 29, 2020 Share Posted November 29, 2020 Hi @Alexis3. Try View > View Mode > (untick) Clip to canvas (or just hit the backslash key "\" that is a default key to toggle the switch).

Ok, Walter. Anyway. it can be done with a bit of effort and an object can span multiple artboards from what I gathered. You only have to disable "Edit all layers" or it will suck the objects in. Not perfect and should be fixed as @JGD mentions elsewhere. walt.farrell 1 Quote Why relying on your users to report errors is the dumbest thing you’ll ever do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How did you manage to do that? The closest I can get to it is to add an object that is not part of any artboard.

The closest I can get to it is to add an object that is not part of any artboard. Indeed, that us what I’ve done. Just look at the layers panel on my screenshot, it’ll become obvious (call it thinking outside the box if you want to). However, it’s tedious to work with such layers, since we don’t have a proper lock layer function. Once you manage to click the object(s) that span across the layers, it will be “sucked” into the artboard layer you clicked in (due to the weird tree artboard / object system affinity uses... the only way is to disable Edit all layers switch, but that’s another hassle...

From that panel it looks like the 'MTX' object is in a group that is not part of either artboard -- it is simply above both of them.

walt.farrell Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 Won't you also have issues Exporting an object that is positioned like that?

No, it seems that export goes well in this case. walt.farrell 1 Quote Why relying on your users to report errors is the dumbest thing you’ll ever do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
