Why is my InDesign CS3 pen tool suddenly does not work?

Hi all!


My pen tool - specifically the function 'add an anchor' suddenly works at all. I click on the point that I want to anchor and I get nothing. I tried to restart the program. I tried restarting the computer and no luck.  Any ideas on what could be the problem? Thank you

The selected path is? I must be active before you can add a point.

  • BlackBerry AutoText on Q5 Q5 suddenly does not work

    I have a problem on autotext @ my Q5. He is suddenly does not work. All the words that I recorded on my word substitution will not appear on my BBM. My OS: 10.1.0.4181.

    Can any body give a solution? Thank you

    No, my word substitution list is not empty, where is full. I already solved it by myself. It seems that we can only put Word Limited. So after that I deleted some of my word, inserts rerun. I think it is a bug for the Q5. Maybe we can only place max 80 words.

  • Network in Developer Tools tab does not work

    In Developer Tools Network Monitor does not work for me. No request appears in when I open or reload a page or during the execution of an AJAX request.
    By clicking on the button Performance analysis does nothing no more.

    What could be wrong?

    Live HTTP Headers (and Firebug) had no problem showing the network news, so the problem was with one network tools of development of Firefox tab.

    The good thing is that it is corrected now, probably after I updated Firefox to the latest version. To someone of another encounter the same problem, please update your browser and that should fix it.

    Edit: Typo fixed. Comment added for others with the same problem.

  • Toshiba Digitizer Pen PA5133U-1EUC does not work

    Toshiba Digitizer Pen PA5133U-1EUC (bought new 22.12.2014) with my Z10T (bought 23.05.2014) does not work.
    What can I do about it?

    This Pen has worked in the past?

    The Toshiba PA5133U-1EUC digitizer pen should be compatible with the PORTEGE Z10T-A-12W (I guess that's your laptop) and if the pen does not work, there must be a hardware problem.
    Maybe you should get in touch with the dealer and should test another.

  • Client VPN suddenly does not work

    An external interface address changed on this PIX 501 yesterday - all of a sudden their client VPN does not work.  I checked that nothing in the config VPN configuration has changed.  I now see a *(HASH.) ("OAK NOTIFY ISAKMP INFO: NO_PROPOSAL_CHOSEN") in the journal on the VPN client.

    I crossed referenced on google - nothing in the statements of NAT, Access-list, or VPN configurations have changed.  Any ideas?

    Thank you

    Please, try the following:

    Remove and reapply the cryptomap on the external interface and see if that helps.

  • TOOL TIP does not work!

    Hello

    (1) now I can see the legend of an object/field as a TOOL of ART, fine.

  • Pen tool sometimes does not detect path under cursor for adding a new point

    Hi people...

    I just create a path with the pen (arrow) tool, but I found when I select a path, select the pen tool and move the mouse on the path to add a point, but the pen tool does not detect the underlying path, and the cursor does not change the pointer with the sign «+» If I click, it will start a new path.

    Curiously, in the same example, the tool pen tool changes to the anchor Point tool to remove if I hover over an anchor point on the same path I did not have the Add anchor point tool.

    Even more strangely, if I draw an ellipse or draw a path with the pencil tool, select it, select the pen tool, I DO get the Add option anchor when mouseovering path.

    Is this a known problem, or am I missing something?

    See you soon!
