White box around text in Designer?


Recommended Posts

Hi there, new user here. Why is there a default white box around the text in Designer? I have spent the last several hours trying to figure out how to either get rid of the box completely or make the box around the text transparent, to no avail. I am using the artistic text tool, not the frame text tool. Please help!

Welcome to the Serif Affinity forums, @GloriousDestiny.

You might check the Character Studio panel and see if you have a background color specified for your text:

If it shows a color, click on it and choose "no color" (circle with /) instead.

You might also try clicking on the Revert Defaults button in the Context Toolbar:
