Although I have unchecked "Show other objects" while editing (including "gray others") the other objects continue to show while I am editing. For example, I am trying to edit an Extrude Along Path object. When I double click on it, I select "path." It takes me to the familiar editing window, but all the other stuff is still there. I have de-selected Show Other Objects in the VW preferences, but it apparently does not work anymore or I am not doing something obvious--probably the latter if history is a guide.
As an aside is there a way to turn all guidelines off? This includes the annoying red lines that cross in the center of my workspace. I want nothing...and I mean nothing...in my drawing that I did not put there. I want it all off, as in a blank void of nothingness. In the meantime, is anyone else having a problem with isolating objects they are editing? I can't see what I'm doing with all my other drawing stuff in the way. VW 2020, MacBook Pro, OS Catalina. Thanks for any help!
