LuZiboo_ Posted January 17, 2022 Posted January 17, 2022 This afternoon, while I was making a poster,I happened to double click on the text tool.Then the "Artistic text tool " automatic setting background color,and I can't change it or turn off it.I have meet the same problem with @Xie Yuze , and I follow the method inside to solve the problem.But I don't know what's causing the problem.I've encountered it a few times before, and each time it happens out of nowhere.Sometimes it affects my work schedule.I've uploaded my file below in the hope that it will help developers to fix it.

Staff MEB Posted January 17, 2022 Staff Posted January 17, 2022 Hi @LuZiboo_ This usually happens when you copy/paste text from another app (for example a browser). Affinity may pick the formatting/background color from it and apply to the text. Quote A Guide to Learning Affinity Software
gw_westdale Posted December 13, 2022 Posted December 13, 2022 Nice to know the reason, but what we need is a way to turn it off --- background colour in the character tab is null for instance.

gw_westdale Posted December 13, 2022 Posted December 13, 2022 Yes it does help, thanks , Walt . At least the brush is not stuck. I happened to have another bit of artistic text elsewhere on the page prior to the problem and selecting that and using it to set default also worked. I don't think that the background on text just created can be removed in a 'proper' way -- copying the text and pasting it to the (now cleared) Artistic text tool seems to be the only solution. walt.farrell 1 Quote Win 11 PCs 64bit Envy and Envy tablet + Filter Forge Retired computer systems tester doing graphics for charities and politics etc.
