Hi Anthony,

Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

 

Just a quick question:

Are you trying to turn on the canvas or turn it off?

 

If you want to turn on the canvas, click on File< Options< Advanced< under Editing Options check the option Automatically create drawing canvas when inserting AutoShapes. This will enable the canvas for all the new documents that you create. And when you try to add an AutoShape it will automatically enable the canvas.

 

If you want to turn off the canvas, click on File< Options< Advanced< under Editing Options uncheck the option Automatically create drawing canvas when inserting AutoShapes. This will disable the canvas for all the new documents that you create.

 

Provide us more information about the issue to help us understand the issue and assist you better.

Thank you.
