Going around the bend trying to figure how to do this.
I want to have a clear text box with a boarder round it with no fill colour, text padding of say 15 pixels so the text is not against the side of the boarder line.
Can anyone help please
Thanks

Adjust the red line control points to suit your width.

With the Select Tool, Ctrl-click the box and Clear its colour fill and add a line width.
