Question

Set background of shared link

When you "share" a document by creating a link, the fullscreen "Presentation" view displays each artboard as an independent container, since obviously it's not likely to match the user's screen ratio.

 

The problem arises when you have an artboard with a white background. Since the background around the screen is also white, they blend together and you can't tell where the edge of the screen stops.

 

Is it possible to change this background color?

    Hi @travistravistravis , I couldn't see any option to change the background color in presentation mode but thinking what I'd do, using a full width-height rectangle to create a stroke around the artboard looks like the best solution, if you want to use 100% white bg color. It looks like this and right now gives an idea to user about the boundaries of the artboard: https://xd.adobe.com/view/1a3c45cf-882d-4a8c-8843-53ee3c19a097-4f6f/?fullscreen

    Good idea. I have a feeling that's probably the best we can do right now. Hopefully, Adobe allows some more customization for shared links in the future.

    Thanks for the suggestion!
