Can I remove the shadow around the page?

Web Designer 6 automatically places a shadow on the right and bottom of the page. Is there a way to remove this shadow? http://www.monicaweb.info/

Welcome to Talkgraphics monica.
To remove the shadow from the page go to Utilities -> Options, page size tab, in the Spread section remove the tick from Show page shadow.

Hi Miguel,

I had tried that but it did not remove the shadow. Just in case, I exited the program, reopened it, and tried again. Still no luck. Any other ideas?

Did you click on Apply ?

Make sure you have clicked Apply as neodeist said, otherwise it will not work.

When you change the colour or add a bitmap background to the page, a soft drop shadow is created. It's this shadow perhaps Monica wants to remove.
In order to do this, open the Page & Layer gallery, unlock the Page background layer, select the page then remove the shadow using the 'Shadow Tool' from the toolbar as you would with normal objects.
