Create new text box: will always be created with black outline

Hello!

Whenever I want to create a text box in a newly created document with the T-tool, the box with black outline is created before typing the text.

I tried to check all tools without an open document whether black outline is set, ID closed and reopened. Unfortunately, the text box is created again and again with black outline. What can I do about it?

Thanks!

Could you check the stroke settings of the basic textframe style under object styles?

And with no documents open make sure the stroke color is set to none in the Swatches and the size set to 0 in the Stroke panel.

Everything was already set without color and no stroke size ...

That's it! Under the object styles was the outline under the basic graphicframe style...

Thank you, I didn't think I'd look here!
