HELP - Updated latest Web Designer 17 and now problems with text

[glenndelaune]

I updated my Web Designer 17 yesterday and now my text has outlines around it and I can't get rid of it. Here is a sample. It's the Download instructions part.

Do yourself a favor, Do Not update to the latest version of 17.

Presuming you have done some of the following, but just in case...
Select the text and ensure the line is set to 0
Click the shadow tool and make sure there's no Glow shadow
Click the Bevel tool and make sure there's no bevel

Yep, have to agree with Chris. I have been using one permutation of Xara or another since 1996 and I cannot tell you how many times I have accidentally does something like this.

Using the default toolbars (I actually don't know how to set the line thickness through the menu system )

The Bevel tool is the icon below the shadow tool.

Glenn, I saw another issue on your website. There are quite some places where there is overlapping text and overflowing text.

There isn't a menu call or quickey for it.

At least we know that version 17 is fine and dandy.

Well, that wraps up that little mystery.
