Question

Dot on my artboard that I cannot delete

Hey there,

 

Recently, I have started getting dot on my artboard randomly and I cannot click, delete, or interact with it.

 

It doesn't affect the final image so it's not a big deal but it's annoying and I am curious what it is. Has anyone seen this issue and if so, have you found what it is and a way to get rid of it? It doesn't happen to all of my artboards and it shows up randomly.

 

Thanks

What plug-ins do you have installed? What is that next to the Graph tool?

It's a plugin that allows me to shift lines. I don't think the issue is caused by this plugin since I just installed it but the issue's been happening for a white now.


Can you share an example document? Just save as pdf with the default settings and attach it to a post here.

Hi @JollyPanda,

Can you check your layers panel, to see if you can access it there?

Thanks. There is nothing on the layer panel. Please see the other screenshot I have posted.

Can you zoom out and show your whole document with the layers panel expanded?
