Stitches Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 Hi again, second quick question today. Is there a way to temporally hide the bounding boxes when editing? I find them distracting at times such when I'm testing stroke colors or editing smaller objects. Again, Many thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couldn't be any simpler than that! Another mystery solved. 8 minutes ago, Chul said: Or go into View- & uncheck Show Text Flow. I'm actually not seeing that option in the Designer view dropdown menu. Interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chul Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 I'm sorry. I was in Publisher. I discovered that when I got frustrated when they were shown; text selected or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chul Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 Quote No worries and thanks for the reply regardless. Good to know should purchase Publisher in the future Yeah definitely! I wasn't sure if I need it, but now that I got started I'd hate being without it! The Studio Link a great plus, it's way too nice to be able to switch between Photo, Designer, & Publisher that easily & smoothly... Not to make you jealous, just saying.

Maybe I'll download a trial when I have time to explore. Chul 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vitaprimo Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 So, sorry to revive an old thread but did you manage to fix it in Designer?? I just enabled the bounding boxes by accident, had to go out and forgot how to disable them! I sort of panicked and trying to fix it and created a whole 🤬 mess. Well, no… "a whole 🤬 mess" doesn't do it justice: Now I have everything show IN ADDITION to the bounding boxes I wanted to get rid of! 😢 I think I saw a reset button, hopefully I'm not mistaken or I'll have to wipe my user account again. :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vitaprimo Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 Nevermind! I'm such an idiot. The button was on the screenshot I posted. 🙄 I didn't get rid of everything but it cleaned most things up and fixed the bounding boxes! 🥳 Reset Default User Defaults not a typo.
