Unintended drawing on multiple pages at once

Hello, I'm using roll20 on my Windows 7 PC and also my Windows 10 laptop. Sometimes, after I make a new page, I will draw something (for example, a line) on one blank page, For whatever reason, I may switch to a different page and find that that line has duplicated in its size and position on the different page. I'm not sure if my players can see it but if I'm drawing a map on a different page I don't want it appearing on the page my players are looking at. Any idea what this issue is and how to resolve it? Thank you.

Hi Kurt, I just tried this and can confirm that it is happening, however it is I believe intended behavior. It occurs for me if I use the polygonal tool and don't finish the polygon before switching pages (either by hitting ESC or completing a closed polygon). So what is happening is that Roll20 knows you are still drawing and is setup to allow you to continue drawing on the new page (could be useful for tracing something between pages). The drawing only winds up on whichever page you finish it on and is only visible on whatever page you are currently drawing on. Hope that helps, Scott
Thanks Scott, that is a useful feature when you describe it that way. I will be careful not to make the same mistake in the future!
