dotted lines that display around sections

[Nick Monsour]

Hello

Here is another question:

How do I eliminate the dotted lines that show up around sections when
the form is rendered?

thanks,

Nick

Nick,

Grey dotted lines show around repeating sections when you mouse them,
but not when they are first rendered.

Is that what you are referring to? I don't know of a way to turn that
off. I think it's intentional - it shows the user what is going to be
inserted if they click on Insert Item.

Or are you referring to the red dotted lines around individual form
controls?

At the risk of nit-picking they are dashed lines (Yes, I know I called
them dotted too in a previous post), at least the ones I am referring
to are.

As I said previously I think they are intended to provide a visual cue
to the user as to what clicking "Insert Section" affects. I don't know
of a way to turn their appearance on mousing the section off.

I am assuming that you are not referring to a dotted border which is
always there which can be created for a section. That can be turned on
or off using Borders and Shading in the context menu.

Andrew,

Yes you are right they are dashes. I understand about the visual que. I
just dont love it.

Thanks again,
