Is there a way to get rid of this grid background?

I'm hoping someone can help me get rid of this checkerboard background. Not sure if it happened with the upgrade, but it is giving me a headache.

These are video rulers and so on.

 

To avoid them use another document preset ( no Video preset).

To remove them in existing documents see:

Starting with Illustrator, problem with background and artwork 

( sorry, screenshots from my computer in german language)

 

If that works for you

have fun

😉

I am having the same problem, I can't get rid of the grid in the background. Did you figure out how to go back to a plain white background?

And the View > Hide transparency grid does not work for you?

Do you have this grid in a clipart file? Then you have to delete it.

Like @Kurt Gold wrote before. If you only mean the checkerboard background grid. You can toggle on and off that in the view menu.

 

Note: The standard shortcut is [Shift]+[Ctrl]+[D]

Maybe you used it accidentally.

As for the checkerboard: View menu > Hide Transparency Grid.

    Thanks. I was able to get rid of the background pattern finally. The video rulers don't want to go away even when not chosen.
