Unwanted yellow background shape is added to text. Not character background.

[tlaloc58]

First, I know about character background color. Is not that, as you can see in one of the images, added a background color to the word yellow.

Second, this happens in both Artistic Text and Frame Text

An unwanted yellow background shape, shows everytime I type text. Is not character background color. Looks like a paragraph background which I cant find how to get rid off, and the only way is to convert to curves and select the shape and delete it.

New documents don't have this issue, so I'm copying and saving everything to a new file. But I want to know if there is a setting I don't know about, or if this is a bug.

Thanks.

Post your test document and one of us can have a root around to see if we can find the problem.

If you've ever had that document open in Publisher it could be a Frame fill color from the Text Frame panel, or a paragraph fill decoration from the Paragraph panel.

But neither of those apply if the document was created in and has only been modified in Designer.

Alternatively you might have copied some text from someplace else where it had that background, and pasted it into your Designer document, and managed to get the background assigned as part of the Text tools' attributes. Perhaps, in that case, with the cursor in one of the text fields that has the problem, Edit > Defaults > Factory Reset.
