Selection tool will not drag over the items. Moves the page instead. Items stay in place

It drives me crazy! I have not used the program in a few months and I'm guessing that it updated. Everything is different, and now when I try to select an item and move it, or select multiple items at once and move them, nothing happens. When I drag and output, the entire page moves, but everything I wanted to do move remain on-site. I can move them if I select each item individually, hold the shift key while clicking. Then allows me to drag this selection. How can I select all at the same time? Used to be able to drag over the area and he would choose everything.

Strangest thing, this was happening only on a single file, (which I just discovered), which is be a PDF file.

In this case, you will need to inspect the layers panel. Everything is more likely a clipping mask (at least one if not more) that must be released.

  • Selection tool will not adjust the forms

    For some reason when you work with illustrator my selection tools won't adjust the forms more. I can move the shapes but I can't resize them or stretch them. If I have a form of rectangle on my selected screen, the hatch which are normally found in the environment are no longer there, also on the edges of the rectangle of the selection tool is not switch to the rotation tool. My selection tool also has a small black square down to the right that I have not noticed before. I have no idea how I got into this mode or other whatnot, but any help to return to normal would be awesome, preferably without resetting all my preferences, thank you!

    Can someone help me understand how to get my direct Selection tool in order to get things moving agin?

    The problem started sevearl weeks.

    Hmm. odd.

    As it is new files that have the problem, no existing files, I suspect it's that nothing related to the questions I've asked so far.

  • Perspective selection tool will not scale

    Then, I worked with Illustrator CS5 perspective all day without problem mode, when three hours, widget scaling perspective Selection tool disappear on me. He'd only move items now. Tried to dig into the menus to see if there were a few shortcut that I accidentally hit which disables the scaling (for a reason any), went up to reinstall the program, nothing works. Do not wait to hear a solution for this, but it makes it rather impossible to work in perspective and it is totally killing me, so it couldn't hurt to ask!

    If there is now no bounding box, then it's view > hide/show the bounding box or Command Shift B Mac or PC Control Shift B

    In the opposite case

    I'll try to help you further, to ask the question in the language of the Illustrator and composed not of words thet yu will include only you need.

    For example you speak of object scaled on the perspective grid? There is no widget scaling, but there is a widget for the selection of active plans.

    What is the widget that you refer? If Yes, then you may need to turn off the visibility of the widget

    If you talk about the grid and the widget, you might have to hit command > shift > I have on the Mac or the control > shift I have on the PC that would hide the grid and the widget hit the keys still once he'll bring back. Or view > Perspective grid > Perspective to show/hide grid.

    Even after reinstalling it would probably not visible unless you trashed the settings folder after uninstalling.

    Regarding the scaling is done with the perspective under the tool selection tool grille perspective.

  • 8600 AIO will not adapt to the page of sites like mapquest maps.

    Don't know what happenend, everything was fine, but all of a sudden my 8600AIO will not expand or adapt to the cards that I am posting on the websites of the page.  Even large maps on Mapquest print on a 4 x 4 block on a sheet of standard paper.  There is no settings I can change to expand or adapt to the page.  All of the suggestions.  Thank you

    Hi rrstu,

    I want to help you to be able to print with did it to page and/or expand features. I have a few questions to help us.

    • What browser are you using, and have you tried another browser?
    • When you print, you choose file, print or you choose the small printer icon on the web page that gives you the easy to print?
    • Please guide me through the steps you take to print.

    I have played around with Map Quest and Internet Explorer and have found a way to make it work.

    In fact, I had to, click the printer icon little, not file print, and then click the new window/tab, I pointed out the map, click file print preview and changed the settings. Settings the most important was to choose as selected on the screen at the top. For the card that I'm viewing the best settings to use is the landscape, and basically, you need to change the size according to your needs. Adjust makes it seem small for me, I changed it to 150% it it looked perfect. Basically, I don't think it's a problem with the printer, I suspect that the problem is related to settings in the program you are printing from.

    To test the printer, you can make a copy of the front and choose the option to enlarge the image. If it works we know that's not the printer at the origin of the problem.

  • Search for a product on the site of Muse-BC will not redirect to the page of results of product - return an error.

    I built a site of e-commerce in Muse and linked with BC. The site works fine, but it needs a search function.

    I added the "Site Search" form successfully and it was working fine, but the results page does appear as a list. After some research, I found that the 'Search' module product is what I need. I've added to the site, and I see that I have followed each step of the tutorial correctly, but the results page (which is a redirect in the code) will not work. He brings just the error message:

    Page not found

    We could not find the requested Web Page. This is either because:

    • There is an error in the address or link.
    • You have entered the address or link incorrectly.

    Click here to return to our Home Page.

    The search code is added to the header of a page in Muse, and module results {module_productresults} is added to the page of redirection in Muse.

    The site is www.thecookshopross.com, and the search box is currently in the header of the 'Sale' page while I'm working on it.

    Can need a very urgent correction - anyone help?

    Thank you

    Hi Mika,

  • application will not return to the page

    I have an application that runs a package oracle.

    the appeal in the apex process is something like

    callpackage.start_process.



    The procedure is long and it ends, but the page disappears with the package is done.



    This does not happen within the apex, just at the moment where it is deployed and the client calls the server.

    This could be just a network issue, but it's a real show stopper, and I could use any info you can give me.
    Thank you
    Doug

    Doug,

    You can use background APEX for long running process tasks. See this link for more details.

    See you soon,.

  • The selection tools will not choose paths.

  • Adobe Reader 11 will not return to the last page you read, but because of version 10

    Hello

    I just installed Adobe Reader version 11. When I start to read a pdf file, it will not start on the page where I left off last.

    I had version 10, and he would start on the page where I finally left (at the previous session).

    Is there a way to get version 11 to do what would make my version 10?

    For example, if I studied my Excel book and left to page 70, closed Adobe Reader, then recovery thereafter, Adobe Reader automatically start on page 70 (for the Excel book that I study since).

    However, now with Adobe Reader version 11, it does begin at the front of the book pdf.

    Is there a way to get version 11 to remember the page whatsoever when I close the book pdf?

    Thank you very much
