Not sure what is going on but There is a line in my design. It really is more of it not lining up. I move the design and the and it stays in the same place. I thought maybe it was my monitor but it doesn't do it in AP. I just tried to print it and it seems ok but just want to know if it is something I can fix it is kinda driving me Crazy lol. I tried shutting down the program and it is still there (don't look to bad in screenshot but it is worse IRL)

Hi Diane,

This looks like a redraw issue, if you go to Edit > Preferences and under performance set the view quality drop down to Nearest neighbour does the issue still occur?

Thanks

I get the same thing sometimes. I think it's just related to the zoom percentage (Photoshop always did something similar on 'uneven' zoom percentages). I find it's not consistent though and I doesn't always do that glitch even on the same zoom settings.

But basically just zoom in or out a little and it should go away. It's not really there - it's just a display issue I think and won't be there in any output or print.

Thank you all for helping I do see when I zoom in it goes away but when normal size it is back. I did try the preferences but it still happens. I tried what all of you said but still a problem. Weird problem never noticed it before maybe last update not sure. Thank you all again:)

What specifically do you mean by "normal size"?

In your screenshot you are zoomed in to 14.6% but the font size for the selected art text layer is 449.4 points, so it is not clear to me what normal size should be.

Try pressing Ctrl+1 to set the view zoom to 100% as @Hens suggested. Does the distortion go away?

As @R C-R has observed, the font size for the artistic text in your screenshot is 449.4 points. There are 72 points to the inch, so that piece of text is more than 6 inches high: is that as it should be?

The font is at 300pt at this time. I tried to do the ctrl 1 and that made it hugh in my screen. I made it larger and smaller by ctrl and roller on mouse it seems to be better now. I need the size font because for a tshirt need to be able to see it:) Thank you Alfred and everyone for all you help:)

Because you are viewing it at 100%, it should be about the same size as it would be on a t-shirt.

All that does is change the zoom level -- IOW, the size it is displayed at on your screen. It does not change the actual size of anything in the file. That's why it does not appear as a step in the History panel, there is no "undo" for it, & if all you do is change the zoom level after opening the file, you won't get a warning about unsaved changes because there are none.

Doesn’t that depend on the size of the monitor? If you view the same document at 100% on your iPad and your iMac, I would expect you to see the same amount of it on both but with the dimensions on your iMac screen being nearly three times as big.

I was not considering how this works on an iPad, but at 100% on my 27" iMac an object that is for example 8" wide according to the Transform panel displays at almost exactly 8" wide. When I use View > Show Rulers, at 100% zoom level their displayed size very nearly matches up with a ruler held against the screen.
