How do you hide the “blue outlines” around objects in InDesign?
Every new object I create on an InDesign board is surrounded by a thin blue outline. I don’t know what these are called as I’m a newbie so I am unable to locate instructions on how to toggle their display. I am sure there must be a way to toggle this outline off and on.
I am aware of the following keyboard shortcuts:
- Ctrl+' to display/hide the document grid
- Ctrl+; to display/hide guides
But I can’t figure out how to remove the blue outlines around objects and I can’t see an option under View → Grids & Guides that seems applicable.
Answer
The “blue outlines” are known as ‘Frame Edges’ and their visibility can be toggled using either:
- Ctrl+H
- Main menu → View → Extras → Show/Hide Frame Edges
