Hi @TomCon, thanks for posting in the Lucid Community! Can you please share a screenshot of your Document Settings and the rulers on your canvas so I can better understand what you’re seeing on your end? Additionally, could you also share a temporary Support PIN for this document? This will allow me to take a closer look at the issue you’re experiencing. For more information on generating a Support PIN, check out this Help Center article. I appreciate your help and patience!
Here is the temporary support PIN.

At the moment, this document is “correct”, in that if you look at the top ruler it is 24” wide, and if you look at the side ruler, it is 12” high. (I am going to change the width to 26” shortly). The problem for me is that the canvas seems to “auto-expand” even though i have the infinite canvas set to “off”. I have diagnosed that it seems to be happening if i accidentally drag something, say, like a fraction of an inch too far on the screen. Then the whole canvas changes size. If i don’t notice this right away, i keep working, and then later i say “oh no”, and i have to spend time moving everything back to get it onto the canvas size that i want.
Based on reading doc, i thought that by setting my document size, and by setting infinite canvas to OFF, i would get a “hard” size that could not be violated (which is what i want). If i accidentally drag too far i want Lucid to just stop me at the edge. Then i see what i am doing and can make adjustments.
So, really my question is, how can i make the canvas size “TOTALLY FIRM” and never enlarge, no matter what i drag where? That is what i would like to have.
Thank you for your help!
Thanks for following up, @TomCon! After taking a look on my end, it looks like you have Auto tiling enabled, which means that new page tiles are automatically created when you add content that exceeds a page’s boundaries, although the rulers remain the same length.
Additionally, you can enable Page tiling which will show the boundaries of each individual page of your desired length on the workspace. For more information about adjusting your Document Settings, check out our Adjust Document Settings article from the Lucid Help Center. Please let me know if you have any further questions!
