Border lines around drawings on layout.

[Anonymous]

hi,

Does anybody know if it's possible to turn them off, so they won't be visible on layout?

thx

This and much more is set in the Drawing Settings dialog. (Select the drawing, and ctrl/cmd-T or right click to get the context menuy, or half a dozen other ways to get there.)

See attached - clear the checkbox for the printable border.

The Drawing Tool determines the default settings for all new drawings that a created by dragging and dropping views onto a layout.

Thx Karl,

But I have it unchecked, and still have dashed border around my drawings - probably they are not printable but it's a bit annoying when they're visible.

Visibility of drawing border (the not printable one) is important to know what is what on the layout.
And if the solid line changes to dashed - it is also the info that the drawing placed there is cropped or the outline is edited.

Best Regards,
Piotr

Go to View Menu >On-Screen View Options>Drawing Frames

drawing frames can be toggled on-off.

Piotr, thx for the tip re: dashed outline indicating cropping - despite looking at these every day, its one of those things i've never noticed.
