I'm not sure what's happening, just from that screenshot.

Can you share your .afpub document with us, or at least enought of it to show the problem?

I have something similar. just writing new line of thext in Designer V2 and the text is fading to the right side like a gradient to white 

But there is nothing set. No effect, no gradient. I just put the text tool, color black and write. Nothing else on that page, nothing to see in layers just the page and this text on it.

Can you share a sample .afdesign file that has the problem, @Thomahawk?

You've applied a transparency to the text.

Where do you see that in the exampl.afdesign file @Thomahawk posted?

Specifically the layer in the screen shot. The transparency is only on this layer, not the group. 

Thanks. The contrast is so low for that layer in the screenshot that I could not read its name without opening it in a new browser tab & enlarging it 4X or so.

Thats the thing. I did not set anything. I made a new page, put the text tool and started writing, it got clearer with each letter, so I tried to set the color again and again without any change, checked ther is no transparency or effects on layers.

Well. I still see no transparency there. Even when I select that text element and activate the gradient or transparency tool, there is NOTHING SET.

If there where it would look like this:

Zoom out

The transparency does not need to be actually on the object, just associated with it

To save time I am currently using an automated AI to reply to some posts on this forum. If any of "my" posts are wrong or appear to be total b*ll*cks they are the ones generated by the AI. If correct they were probably mine. I apologise for any mistakes made by my AI - I'm sure it will improve with time.

OK, thanks Carl. Now I see it too.

Still bears the question where does it come from.

Like I said. I only choose the text tool and started a new text, never touched any of the gradient tools.

Do you by chance use the Keyboard Shortcuts to initiate the Text Frame tool @Thomahawk?

I've been testing this here, thus far I've been unable to replicate this and my current assumption is that Y may have been accidentally pressed, rather than T, selecting the Transparency Tool unknowing?

Thanks for letting me know - I'll be sure to keep an eye out for any further reports of this & should you find a reproducible workflow that may have caused this, please update us here :)
