Text Frame - Can't remove border/stroke in Designer


Recommended Posts

Hi,

Any ideas why I can't remove the outline from a text frame? There is no fx outline set, no stroke, and it doesn't matter on which level the layer is...I just can't seem to find a way to remove it! Am I missing something? Is this a bug?

Thank you,

Jack

Most likely you have pasted a Text Frame with an outline applied to it in Publisher. Designer lacks the Text Frame studio panel. You'll have to open the file in Publisher and remove the outline there or just copy the text and make a new Text Frame in Designer.

Mac Pro (Late 2013) Mac OS 12.7.6 
Affinity Designer 2.5.5 | Affinity Photo 2.5.5 | Affinity Publisher 2.5.5 | Beta versions as they appear.

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that.

Hmm...it is only happening on this document, not on a new one...Can't seem to figure out why this keeps occurring on the existing document.

Might be useful to have text frame options in Designer too?

Maybe it will come one day. But usually it happens only if you have APub, too. – I guess you will not forget this solution now.

Every day, I learn something new! - I will definitely try to keep this in mind 👍
