I wish to create a white-stripe behind some text to increase readability. I would like to use an oval shape, but I keep running into the problem of a border on the shape. I can't figure out how to not have some type of line. Even a hairline adds a solid white line.
Any ideas?
no, but i can have border line with no colors.
no idea if this matches your needs...
How do you make a border line with no color?
Select the shape or frame, go to the Properties Palette, select the "Line Colour" property (looks like a brush) and select "None" from the list.
(If you have "Show Frames" checked in the "View" menu then you'll still see a border around image and text frames but they won't show on export or preview. Or just un-check that option.)
