Hand tool problem

Hi all

I am writing because I have a problem with the hand tool on a pdf file I created from photos taken off the coast of a powerpoint presentation for a university course.

On the newly created pdf file, the hand tool would not work to read the entire document. May not edit the page. The only way that I can pass the pages to my pdf document should go to the vertical scroll bar (on the left) and change the pages from there.

This isn't something that I can not live, but it is rather annoying.

Could someone tell me please what is the problem with the hand tool and how to fix it?

If you are curious as to why should I do this instead of simply ask the powerpoint files:

The Professor of my course of water at my local University gives its course by explaining his powerpoint presentations. It is quite a problem because it does not have enough time to write everything by hand (in the book). So, I asked his permission to take photos of his presentations. He told me that he would allow me to do, but he would not give his own version files to students. Some university professors have strange attitudes support.

As you can see I have no choice but to be expected in a camera, whenever I go to this class.

To create my pdfs, all I do is select all the images; Right click and select "combine the files supported in acrobat."

The created pdf files come out very well. However, the hand tool would not work to navigate the documents together. It only works within a single page, but do not to move to another page.

Could someone tell me what's not here?

Help, please!

Thank you for taking the time to review my case.

My guess is that you're document is in page unique, non-continuous mode.

Make sure that the button on the left of the two in the box highlighted here is checked.  The hand tool then you will navigate between pages:

Let us know!

  • Space bar to hand tool is no longer works?

    I did no update AFAIK, but on opening Illustrator today the SPACEBAR to move the page (hand tool) no longer works, and frustrating, it must use the shortcut (H) instead.  Is this an update of Adobe?  Someone at - it's not how to get it back to normal?

    Thank you!

    Adam,

    If the things that must operate simply refuse of (exhaustion all the possibilities (and carefully making sure you (all) make the necessary things)), you can try the list below.

    Sometimes, (some) things may fail or stop working for no apparent reason. When (other) possible reasons/remedies do not work, it is perhaps a kind corruption (temporary or permanent), or even preference settings which disturbs, which can be cured with something on the following list put in place in order to provide a catch-all solution for otherwise intractable cases. It starts with a few easy suggestions and safe) 1 and 2) for cases less serious and goes two ways 3) and 4) to reset the default preferences (easily but irreversibly and more laboriously but more completely and also reversible), then follows a list 5) various other possibilities, and it ends with a complete reinstallation 6). If no other suggestion doesn't work, or if no other suggestion appears, you can start on the list and decide how to go or who can apply.

    The following is a general list of things, try when

    (A) the question is not in a specific file,

    (B) you have a printer installed, connected and turned on if it's a physical printer (you can use Adobe PDF/Acrobat Distiller as a printer by default without the need to have a printer on, of course you will need to specify when you really need print on paper), and

    (C) It is not caused by problems with opening a file from external media (see below).

    You tried/made some of them already; 1 and 2) are easier for temporary strangenesses and 3) and 4) specifically may be corrupted/inconvenient preferences); ((5) is a list in itself and 6) is the last resort.

    If possible / there is, you must record a current work first, of course.

    (1) close Illy and open again.

    (2) restart the computer (you can make up at least 5 times);

    (3) close Illy and press Ctrl + Alt + Shift / Cmd + Option + shift during startup (easy, but irreversible);

    4) move the folder (follow the link with this name) with closed Illy (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible), for CS3 - CC you can find the file here:

    https://helpx.Adobe.com/Illustrator/KB/preference-file-location-Illustrator.html

    5 look through and try the relevant among the other options (click on the link with that name, item 7) is a list of the usual suspects among other applications which can disturb and confuse Illy, point 15) applies to the maybe CS5, CS6 and CC);

    More serious still (it can be serious because you may need to restore the plugins and whatnot if you've customized things), you can:

    6 (A) uninstall (check the box to delete the preferences, if any), B) run the cleanup tool (if you have CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6/CC) and C) reinstall. You can try without step B), but sometimes it is necessary, because otherwise things can persist.

  • The selection (rather than the hand tool) by default in Adobe Reader ms tool

    Even if I click on the selection tool, everytime I open Adobe Reader DC, he returned to the hand tool. When I view PDF files in Firefox and I switch to a different tab that has the pdf, the cursor becomes a hand flashing tool. I was once able work around this problem and make the default value of the selection tool, but I can't remember how I did it. Does anyone have a solution for this problem? If I make the hand tool Selection text and images, it always makes the cursor becomes a hand tool flashing when I'm in Firefox and a different tab of one containing the pdf file. I use Win 10. It is very annoying because I often use the cursor to select and copy text and use the arrow keys to scroll through, making it largely redundant hand tool. If there is a solution to this problem, I would be very happy.

    Hi donaldc44485744,

    Please try to use the Download Adobe Reader and Acrobat cleaning - Adobe Labs tool cleaning tool, and then restart your system.

    Then try to install the latest version of Adobe Acrobat Reader DC from here: Adobe - Adobe Acrobat Reader DC Distribution

    Let us know if you still experience the problem.

  • Hand tool will not disseminate billing.

    I have a problem with! Photoshop and! InDesign - frequently when I select an object to move, the cursor will not release the question.  Then I can move the mouse in any direction, and the object remains attached to the cursor. I then have to click with the mouse down a second time to release the item.  As you can imagine, it's incredibly frustrating when you try to position elements accurately and adds a huge amount of time at work.

    I find also quite often that my hand tool gets stuck when dragging a page and will not be shared - I have to type the SPACEBAR several times so he could release.

    In my attempts to try to solve this problem, I did the following:

    • I tried my wacom (and driver) Mac
    • I deleted my preferences by pressing Shift + Option + command-control (and by pressing 'Yes' when asked if I want to delete the preferences)
    • I tried to unplug all USB devices
    • I also tried to disable the Bluetooth and just using the Wacom
    • I tried other applications to quit smoking
    • I tried different keyboards
    • I tried to remove the third-party plugin only I use (FontExplorer)
    • I even restored my backup time machine on another Mac!  (now on an iMac nine - end 2015)

    .. .and yet the problem persists.

    I saw that others have complained on this topic, or at least the hand tool stuck when dragging even when, but the best fix that seem to come with, is t press the SPACEBAR several times. I'm afraid I don't really see this as a solution, especially when you have to do whenever you want to move something on the page.

    If someone has any ideas why this happens, I'll be very grateful.

    Thank you very much for your time

    I would try to plugins and other third party software (a not just in the Adobe - various Chrome plugins programs are known to cause havoc in InDesign, as well as things like WebRoot and some banking security software). Have you tried to start with the SHIFT key down to turn startups to see if that makes a difference?

  • Why the space bar does not work as a hand tool? In any case

    Space bar stopped working as a hand tool. Photoshop 2015.1

    Who had the same problem?

    It's the latest Mac OS X

    I use wacom Intuos

    But I guess I have it solved. The browser had a reason. I just closed Safari and space bar started working

  • When I try to pan and scroll in Photoshop by using pan/scroll my Wacom Intuos it lag/saccade, but when I manually click on the hand tool in Photoshop and use it, it does not lag. The difference is not dramatic, but it is quite remarkable. Someone at - it

    I just bought a new Intuos Wacom Pro 5 and I am trying to configure shortcuts so that my workflow will be more effective, but when I put my stylus to pan/scroll and use it in Photoshop CC 2015, it lag/stutters a little. When I manually select the hand tool (which is supposed to do the exact same thing as the command on my pen) and use in Photoshop it does lag at all. Everyone knows about this problem?

    [Left the forum Cloud/Installer generic for program specific forum... MOD]

    I don't use CC 2015 there too many questions. However, I just test cc 2015 with my Wacom Intuos Pro and don't have your problem. I have my Pen down toggle switch together space to switch to the hand tool. When I press it I can pan the image smoothly and without any lag. With CC 2015 if I quick pan out from the coast to a stop well. My workstation is running Windows 10.

  • with wacom tablet hand tool mystery

    I'm having a problem with the tool at hand with my wacom tablet and have not been able to understand how to fix it.

    The question:

    When I'm in the develop module, if I press the space key to call the hand tool and try to move the image using my wacom pen, I can't. When I use the stylus to drag the cursor, screen image will basically freeze (do nothing). If I wait, the picture will move eventually. but I can not move fluidly around the image with the hand tool by using the pen. the same function by using my mouse works fine. so, does not seem to be a problem with the LR. and also, interestingly, if I go in the Navigator Panel, I can drag around the image perfectly using the pen.

    I dug around forums here trying to figure out what wacom or pen windows setting (7) could be the cause, but came to nothing.

    any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Hey, found a solution! Just disable the GPU acceleration and it works again.

    The GPU acceleration has been a real pain for me together. Everything was slow, unstable and delay. As soon as I realized to activate it things go back almost to gear LR 3.6 and the software is still usable. Aye!

  • hand tool to scroll the timeline

    Hello

    I've just updated the Adobe After effects to CC15 and just noticed that the hand tool you cannot scroll the timeline horizontally.

    It's a small thing, but it slows down the workflow.

  • SHIFT key shortcut 2014 CC and Bugs hand tool

    I have problems with the space bar shortcut doesn't DO NOT WORK in Photoshop since upgrading by 2014 CC. I can't get the hand tool to work using the space bar, as well as the shift to a linear displacement and proportional scaling has stopped working at the same time. I just plugged my Wacom tablet tonight, who has a tool integrated in key hand. It does not work. There is literally NOTHING. These features have disappeared for several months because I upgraded to CC 2014. I'm on a 2009 iMac running OSX 10.8.5.  This bug occurs regardless of what other programs that run in the background. Any ideas?

  • Drag the mouse, hand tool works do not at all!

    Then I installed Photoshop CC 2014 and 2014 CC Illustrator on my computer, started a new file, but only found that any action that includes the mouse dragging - creating shapes, hand tools, the pen tool - don't work at all, just do not respond when you create a form he treats it as if I clicked once on (which jumps through the window of rectangle to create the size entry..) the same situation occurs in Photoshop as well (maybe all software Adobe CC). I tried everything that was suggested on the forum (some of the links below): all other software in the background removal (spotify, 1password, etc.). I also tried with the help of different sets of keyboard and mouse, or with and without wire, still no luck. A situation that eventually works is that all the work of software perfectly fine in safe mode, then I restarted in normal mode, trying to kill any background process that did not work in safe mode, anyway... not working do not at all...

    OK, so finally I solved the problem. It turned out be a software conflict with a background windows service called synergy, so I disabled it in the service manager and everything works fine.

  • hand tool bug

    Everyone has a problem with the hand tool in 12 items? My favorite use is to use keyboard shortcuts for the tools. I use J for Spot Healing Brush, switch to R of blur and so on. I work in files high resolution (3600 dpi), at high magnification (200%), so I have to use the hand tool to navigate. I use the space bar to activate and deactivate all keeping active repair in place. Problem is that suddenly the hand tool will stop working. It won't move the image. I have found that sometimes the Spot Healing Brush "Context Aware" mode prevents the tool operating hand, for reasons unknown. When that happens, I have to switch from "context aware". But it also happens at other times and became so annoying that I started today using the H key for hand tools. Didn't take long to make it go bad too. Now if I'm going to, say Spot Healing or blurred after using the shortcut of H hand tool, the program performs a repair and then immediately returns to the hand tool. I guess that using H makes the default tool of the next operation. Now I'm left with only one other option: use the toolbar to define tools, or at least with the hand tool. It's all crazy and time-consuming.  It happens with different pointers, trackball children both pen tablet. I have disabled touch pad.

    Anyone else have these problems? The equipment is a Lenovo Y500, running Windows 8.1. The screen RES is 1920 x 1080. My copy of items is up-to-date.

    Have you tried to reset the tool? On the tool options bar, look for a box with lines inside. Click on this to reset

  • Stuck in CC 2014 hand tool

    On both of my Mac, both under the latest versions of the Mavericks and Photoshop CC 2014, the hand guard tool stuck after use. It is getting worse. I appear to switch to another tool based on the toolbar, but it does not behave like the tool. Just the hand tool.


    I have the following without success:

    • Activating/Deactivating the hand with the H hotkey tool, space bar and clicking.
    • Reset the preferences.
    • Reinstall Photoshop and same Mavericks.
    • Switch to a different keyboard.

    I restart Photoshop. Sometimes it works, but it might take three or four restarts. Sometimes I have to restart my Mac.

    A Mac has a Wacom Tablet; We do not. The file size has no importance.

    What Miss me and what I can do? This is a major bug. I had the same issue in the CC, but only rarely. I have never seen this before CC. I see in the forum that others have posted about this on the different versions. There must be a way to get Adobe to watch this and other positions.

    Thank you.

    If the problem is not corrected by restarting Photoshop and reset preferences - then the problem exists outside of Photoshop.

    It could be a bad keyboard (stuck key), a utility of the OS (such as support services), a utility program, a bug in a driver (as a driver of the Tablet), malware or even a bug in a third party plugin (no longer).

    Other users will not see this. It is not likely to have a bug in Photoshop.

    Previous posters to similar problems have found the cause on their system: bad keyboards, MacOS support services, bad tools, bad drivers, etc.

  • Move a view of document with the hand tool is locked at the edge of window

    I know it must be simple, but it can not know!

    When I try and move a corner of my document opened with the hand tool in the center of the document window in CS5 with zooming, it stops on the edges and does not move inward more. It is sometimes more convenient to be able to work on a corner zoomed in a document when it is centered in the document window. If I go to the rotation tool and set a slight angle, then I can place the document to anywhere in the window to any magnification! Is there a setting that locks the document at the edge of the screen with zoom?

    Thank you, David

    OK, so if I understand your home machine works very well, it is your work machine that has the problem.

    Can I suggest you add this key to register in accordance with instructions, but if it persists, it is a hardware or software conflict that I can't begin to guess.

  • The space bar shortcuts: hand tool does and does not

    When working on a document (in PS cs6) and pressing the SPACEBAR to quickly access the hand tool does nothing.

    What I've tried so far:

    • reset the settings
    • change the shortcut key (was not possible)
    • Reinstall
    • Google

    Any suggestions?

    PS: I am aware there is a somewhat similar problem for windows users, which has been discussed here , but there are slight differences between my problem and one for windows users.

    Try to repeatedly hit the H key and the SPACEBAR several times, each in quick succession.

    I didn't get that since CS4, and at that time this was an older version of MS Entourage running in background that triggers the deactivation of the H key and the space bar to call the hand upward.

    If it doesn't, you have damaged something and lost a few seconds.
