Frame Text selection border won't go away


Recommended Posts

Affinity Publisher Beta 1.7.0 on MacOS Mohave 10.14

Had been editing existing frame text and afterwards eventually found that the blue selection border was displaying regardless of what I did.

  • Selecting other things or selecting/unselecting the frame text object does not help.
  • Selecting a different layer does not help.
  • Toggling UI does not help.
  • Quitting the app and re-opening the Publisher file does not help.

The only way I can get rid of the selection border is to turn the layer off, but it returns when I turn the layer back on. The border does not print; it's just distracting. I have not had this problem with any other file or frame text.

Sounds like View > Show Text Flow is enabled.

What @walt.farrell said, another way of getting rid of it is View > Preview Mode. That will get rid of everything though.

Mac Pro (Late 2013) Mac OS 12.7.4 
Affinity Designer 2.4.1 | Affinity Photo 2.4.1 | Affinity Publisher 2.4.1 | Beta versions as they appear.

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