I have a repeating group rectangle on my pasteboard background and I would like to make it "not visible" for now but when I click on the "eye" nothing happens. The layer is unlocked so I'm not sure what I'm missing

Right click on the pasteboard area and select Pasteboard Background > Reset
A non-destructive approach is to right-click in the Pasteboard background text in the Page & Layer gallery and pick the Layer Properties, or the same with select it and click the Properties... button.Quote:

Hi,
It's been a while but I' ran into the same thing I had above from 2 years ago. When I follow Acorns suggestion all the rectangles (I have 7 of them) become non-visible. I only want to make one or two of them non visible. Is this possible?
I'm now running Web Designer Premium 15
Thanks
Steve

HI Acorn,
Thank you for replying.
I followed your suggestion above and when I unticked "all pages in document the same" I still was not able to make one of the rectangles in the pasteboard background not visible. If I move the rectangle to page background I can do this but not while this rectangle is in the pasteboard background layer. Is this by design or am I missing something?
Thanks
Steve
Perhaps just unlocking the Pasteboard and then deleting the Rectangle might work.Quote:

The middle page no longer has a Pasteboard.

Hi Acorn,
This is why I think there's something missing or wrong or just part of the design. I do have the pasteboard unlocked and I can highlight the rectangle but I can't make the rectangle un visible .. I can delete the rectangle, move it to another layer , like page background, but not able to move it within the pasteboard layer.
Just for the heck of it, I added a circle to the pasteboard layer and once I did I could not make that circle non visble either.
I then right clicked on the pasteboard background in page & layer gallery, layer properties and the box, editable was clicked. Is there a bug in the program? Am I missing something.
Question. What if I moved the rectangles to a different layer, deleted the Pasteboard background layer and then created a new pasteboard background layer. Will that new layer really be a "pasteboard backgrounf layer?
Thanks
A Pasteboard rectangle is designed to flood the entire background so it cannot just be moved around.Quote:

I can make the rectangle transparent and change its fill. Making it totally transparent, effectively "removes" it.
Finally, you can lock or scroll the shape you have chosen so, all-in-all, it is very versatile.
If you work at it, you can create some clever frieze and wallpaper designs.
