Shapes draw with red dotted line and can't be filled
Hi everyone
I have a problem where I draw a shape and it has a red dotted border and can't be filled. It looks like the lines you drag from the rulers.
Is this a setting or a corrupt document?

Sounds like you are putting the Shape into the Mask layer.
Open the Page & Layer gallery, expand to the Layers view and look for a leftup blue arrow that shows which layer is selected.

Brilliant as usual Acorn.
Guides layer. I thought it might be something stupid like that.
Thank you
