Dear Nyall,
thanks for the fast and easy help. There was no "draw label candidates"
option in that tab u described (named "Automated Placement Engine") but
I clicked on "Restore Defaults" which deactivated an option called "show
candidates (for debugging)" and resolved my problem. Maybe the "draw
label candidates" option has been renamed?
Thanks again,
Anna

Hey community,
I use 3.4.3-Madeira on a Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS.
I was modifying labels on a map when several rectangles appeared
around and next to the labels. I ignored them first cuz I was busy
working on making a label appear again I had hidden before and
thought the display of boxes belonged to one of the labeling tools
I was working with. When I had arranged my issue, I intended to
deactivate the rectangles that had appeared around all labels of
all layers, assuming that I had somehow somewhere clicked on a
special view option. However, until now I was not able to figure
out what those boxes are, how I had made them appear in first
place and how to get rid of them again.
They also show up in the print layout and on the exported pdf.
When I click on "new map view", though, they are not shown in the
new view. Deactivating labels and reactivating them did not change
anything. Moreover, it is something that applies to all layers, so
modifying a specific layer's label options should not bring any
solution.
From the label setting for one of your layers, look for the little
button in the top right which has a blue/yellow four arrow symbol.
Click that, and then uncheck "draw label candidates"
Nyall
Thank you,
Anna
