NinoVSoriano Posted October 22, 2017 Share Posted October 22, 2017 Hey there! There was one thing that I absolutely hated about the earlier versions that was seemed to have been fixed until it just came back today! I like having a clean screen and in the easier versions you use to have a pink line surrounding a object that marked it was selected in some way. When you have more than one object on the screen that pink outline soon became VERY annoying. Until something beautiful happened. One day I updated the Application, and a nice little change was made. When you select and object, the pink outline would appear and when you clicked outside of that object the very same pink line would smoothly fade away. I LOVED it. It let you know that the object was selected and the moment you were done with the object it would slowly fade away. But for some reason I opened up a new file to start a new project and even when I now open older projects, the old style is now back. An ugly pink line that appears around your object and DOES NOT go away. I really loved the new version. It kept the screen really clean. A nice fade away was a perfect choice. Now all i see is a map of ugly lines and the screen gets cluttered really fast. Any help? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The purple lines – I don’t know why so many users call them pink – should fade away all by themselves, so there is something wrong if they don’t.

NinoVSoriano Posted October 22, 2017 Author Share Posted October 22, 2017 @dutchshader Thank you so much! It worked. I now tap on a object and its hi-lighted pink but the moment I click outside the object they fade away in a beautiful animation. It makes the screen so much cleaner and less hectic. Thank you once again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My apologies! I guess I've never had any reason to choose explicitly for them to be turned on all the time.
