Dotted/dashed Lines on Project

Can anyone tell me how I got these dashed/dotted lines on my project? It's like I've turned on a grid somehow but I don't see an option to do that. They're distracting and I'd sure like to turn them off if I can. I've searched the doc and this site and others, but I can't find it. I opened other projects and the lines do not appear so I'm not sure what I did.

Any ideas? Thanks.

Here you can see where the lines extend well past the airport.

Hello @DestructZero ,
I assume this is the visual helper of the falloff option of the Rectangle object when you enable the terraforming option.

I don't remember enabling that, but I disabled it and unfortunately the lines remain. I selected 'Reset Settings' and that didn't fix it either. Thanks though.

@DestructZero ,

It's the "Exclude buildings" option in your rectangles. It seems that there is a default falloff that is being applied, hence this behavior. I don't know if you are aware but you can use a big polygon if you want to exclude buildings or a big rectangle that cover the zone ;)

Boris
