Title: Border not showing
Post by: cherriot on February 10, 2019, 07:12:16 PM
I successfully set new defaults for Document Properties and everything was going along as expected.
Today, when I opened a new document, the border was not showing. 
I am attaching a screen shot of my defaults and of a new document page (minus the border).
I suspect I did something that caused this to happen. 

Can someone please help me get the border back on new documents?

Thank you.

Hhmm, I think you might just be zoomed in too far to see it.  It looks like you might be zoomed to 560%?  If you press the 2 key, it will set the zoom to 50%.  That should allow you to see the whole page border.

But let us know if that doesn't work, and we'll keep trying :)

It might be easier if you check to use 'show border on top' and 'show page borders', even just temporarily. And zoom out.

 :2tu: Yep, that did it.  Thank you so much.  I knew it was something simple.
