Blue Line in Template

Hi Zhang'

Here's an enlarged view:

¶

Note the blue dots between each word in the block of type and the blue Pilcrow character ( ¶ ) at the end of each line of text.

Also note the 'dog-eared page' icon at the right end of the blue line.

These are all 'invisible' characters. The dots are spaces. the Pilcrow is a Paragraph break (return), and the blue line with the page icon is a Page break, creating a second page in the document.

You are seeing them because the the menu item "Show/Hide Invisibles" has been set to Show.

Go to the View menu, Click the "Hide Invisibles" menu item, and those blue characters will all become invisible.

Regards,

Barry

Took a look at the document created from this template again.

The blue lines at the bottom of pages 2 and 3 of the document are 'shapes' — graphic objects from the Shapes Button. A change in the View menu item won't hide this.

To remove it, click on the line to select it, then press delete.

If the selected line has an x at each end, where the one above shows a small circle, go to the Arrange menu and choose Unlock, then press delete.

Regards,

Barry

I encountered this same issue on the resume template, so hopefully one of these solutions applies:

Top line:

Clicking the text closest to the line, I then went to Format > Layout. At the bottom, Borders & Rules needs to be set to None. If you see a solid line, you've found the source of the first infuriating, unclickable line.

Bottom line:

Taking clues from this older answer, go to Arrange > Section Layouts > Make Layout Objects Selectable.

You may need to edit your page margins (Document > Document margins) so that the sections don't overlap with the line, but then I was able to click on and delete it.
