AlanPickup Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 Hi I know this has been discussed previously that is is hard to see the bleed outline when working in the light mode. I have astigmatism and working in the dark mode is uncomfortable in intense work, but I then have the bleed line problem in light mode. So I thought I would be clever and set up templates for my popular A paper sizes where I have a rectangle that lives in the bleed and remove it in the master before printing, this worked fine on the master and if I copy and paste the rectangle to pages, but if I create a page from a master the rectangle appears small, yet the dimensions show as the same in the transform box. Apologies if this has been discussed previously.

AlanPickup Posted September 16, 2019 Author Share Posted September 16, 2019 Thanks Lagarto for the explanation and the work round I will use that for my A4 and A5 templates, also the other orientations. At least it is something they are aware of, I set the bleed to 5 mm knowing I was over the line, but the printing company I use automatically sets it at 3 mmm when I upload, I was more concerned that I was hitting the edge and leaving the yellow still showing as a guide then I new I had not gone too far over. Once again thanks Quote Alan Pickup Windows 11 Home all Affinity suite of Apps PC and Gigabyte Laptop 16gb Ram and Nvidia GTX1660 Super on each.

Staff Patrick Connor Posted November 1, 2019 Staff Share Posted November 1, 2019 We believe the issue "Stroke on a rectangle in a master page does not extend into the bleed area" has been fixed in 1.8.0 [Publisher beta is currently available if you care to check].
