Curious little bug - if it is a bug and not a fault in my settings.
Whenever I create an RGB white outline in Cdr 2019, no matter the thickness, it dissappears on zooming in or out. Even when I don't resize it, it's absent in Print Preview and nothing prints. It only happens with RGB white - every other colour is absolutely normal and it certainly doesn't occur in Cdr 2018.
I'm employing a sort of workaroundby using CMYK white if I need an outline of that colour but it's hardly satisfactory. Any ideas?

White is invisible on white and does not print, try wire frame
I'm not talking about white on white - I'd hardly expect any colour to show on a background of the same colour. Below is a screenshot of a rectangle with no fill but a 10 point RGB white outline, on top of a larger red rectangleat. Viewing at 50%
and then the same set up but at 75% - the outline has gone or at least no longer has any thickness.
I know pure white is actually no colour or rather the absence of colour, but its 'presence' should be removing a corresponding area of, in this instance, red. It's not, the image prints as a solid red block.
Thanks, Colin

That's just plain weird. I downloaded your file and opened it in 2019. Red rectangle only. No white rectangle. View in wireframe, both are there. Select the white one, it tells me it's a 10 point white curve, no fill. Right click on White to see what it does, and it outlines it with a 0.567 white outline - which is visible... Created another rectangle, 10 point white border, it's there no problem - at any view size. Convert it to a curve, still the same.
Convert both rectangles to RGB black, and mine is fine and yours isn't...
10pm here so "that's all she wrote" for tonight, I'm afraid.
Very weird!
I seem to have rectified something by deleting the Default palette and replacing it with the specific RGB palette. No idea why; hovering the cursor over the default palette colours confirmed them to be RGB, but the odd behaviour has stopped -for now at least.
I thought the Default palette was RGB as Colour Management Settings show RGB as being the Primary color mode in both tabs, Document and Default. I selected RGB here as soon as I downloaded the program, as I have in previous versions.
Below are screenshots of my colour settings - could somebody in the know tell me if they are as they should be for my preferred RGB output.
Thanks again
