How to Eliminate Dashed Lines Around Text?

Post by mhill »

I recently upgraded to version 8.2 (paid) on a Windows 10 computer, and am now going through the Settings to get everything back to how I like it.

On the line where the cursor is, I have set the background to be non-white, but I see it comes with dashed lines along the upper and lower edges. Is there a way to eliminate these dashed lines? I suspect it is something simple, but I can't get it.

OMG! That worked!

All this time, I have been assuming "Foreground" referred to the text itself, so I left it black. I kept looking for an option to toggle a dashed line. However, setting "Foreground" to white turned off the dashed line around the text, but left the text itself black.

Excellent!

Thank-you very much!
