outlined text?

[benged123]

All my text has a black outline and I can't find wherever the click is to turn it off. Even if I create new text, there is the black line. I'm not using any effects. It's a mystery and I give up trying to solve it... with a plea for help!

All ears,

Ben

Could you have a black stoke assigned to it?

[benged123]

Quite possibly. Still getting used to Affinity Photo. Will go see if there is a stroke assigned ... aie yie yie! Just spent five minutes looking for a 'stroke' ... not obvious. Perhaps you could steer me to where I would be able to add or subtract a 'stroke'?

Though it seems kind of odd that when I add any new text it comes with that black 'stroke'.

Point me in the right direction Gear maker and I will be a happy camper ...

If I check the 'stroke' panel ... nothing is set. But also I notice that the 'stroke' panel disappears when I highlight any text. It seems to only be there, and work, on objects.

So I'm still at a loss.

Ben, click on the text and hit FX and see if there is a black stroke set in your outline. 

If there is no stroke in FX go to your color tab. there are 2 colors one is fill and one is outline. but make sure your text is selected first. here click on background circle color and hit the white and red round remove tool next to the colors.

hope those help

Thank you most kindly BHP,

 

I've never understood quite how this tab works. Now I know! And will use it with more confidence. Yes, that solved my issue. I'm a happy camper.

 

Very very much appreciated,

 

All the best, Ben
