Frames Behaviour in Watermarks and Effects

Why is it that when I choose a white frame in ‘Watermarks & Effects’, it shows as black, then when exported becomes white. This happens vice versa when I choose a black frame. Curious.

Have you got the highlight and shadow clipping options set on via the Histogram panel? If so, the pure white frame will show clipped (in black) and the pure black frame will also show clipped (in white). I was confused by this in one of my early uses of frames and it took me a while to figure out what was going on.

Thanks for the response!

Thank you Paul. I have just followed up your suggestion and that is exactly what is happening. Something that would otherwise not have occurred to me! Thanks once again for your response.
