gold foil flat cards to not display horizontal for design placement

[Anya]

Gold foil flat cards to not display horizontal for design placement in second slide.  I am not putting a design on the back, however the front card is horizontal, but the back displays vertical.  It seems confusing for a customer - or off for anyone who would like to put a design on the back.  

Also, I would really love a gold foil note cards in A2, 4.25x5.5 with envelopes!  

Thank you!

If you want the back to display horizontally, you need to set the design placement to horizontal inside of the design tool. There are separate controls for the front and back of the card so unless you set both it will default to vertical. So you go to the back of the card in the layers stack, then choose "design placement" and then choose "horizontal" in the panel on the right.

Make sure you set your back (via cog) to horizontal

Ha!  Hi Ladies!  Love your promptness!  So I did this and tried it many times before posting my question, but to no avail.  When I changed the back to horizontal, it only showed me a transparent image.  I also noticed on other peoples' listings that the back shows in vertical.  BUT NOW, I tried again.  I did not want an image on the back and I think this is what the issue was.  I placed a small image on the back, but then made it hidden and it worked!  Does that seem like a plausible workaround?  OR did you do something that I did not do to get it a blank backside to publish in horizontal?  (Hopefully I described my process well!)

Put a background color on it (you can pick white) No need to hide images (unless you want to that is)

Ah, there you, that is a good idea!  Thanks!
