Illustrator CS4 Text Rotation not working as it has in the past

When I attempt to rotate a text element, the text does not rotate along with the textbox that it was created inside. Instead, it always stays at the top of the text box and moves left/right (I hope that is an accurate description). Anyone know what is going on with this?

I think I know what it is happening in this case.... I have time and was trying to reproduce the issue..
1. Here I have a text  and a text inside a container (Block text)
2. Here I use the rotate tool, every thing goes as expected
3. Here I used the free Transform tool. and as you can see, that tool rotates the container but not the text itself,  so that's the "problem"...
use the rotate tool instead the transfor tool...

    Have you installed the newest Wacom driver?

    nurcan,
    The following is a general list of things you may try when the issue is not in a specific file (you may have tried/done some of them already); 1) and 2) are the easy ones for temporary strangenesses, and 3) and 4) are specifically aimed at possibly corrupt preferences):
    1) Close down Illy and open again;
    2) Restart the computer (you may do that up to 3 times);
    3) Close down Illy and press CtrlAltShift/CmdOptionShift during startup (easy but irreversible);
    4) Move the folder (follow the link with that name) with Illy closed (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible);
    5) Look through and try out the relevant among the Other options (follow the link with that name, Item 7) is a list of usual suspects among other applications that may disturb and confuse Illy, Item 15) applies to CC, CS6, and maybe CS5);
    Even more seriously, you may:
    6) Uninstall, run the Cleaner Tool (if you have CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6/CC), and reinstall.

  • Text Wrap not working

    I thought to create a text wrap you simply created a polygonal shape, selected it, and chose "Text Wrap" from the Options menu.
    In a new draw document, I am creating a text frame, filling it with text, creating a polygon, and with it selected choosing "Text wrap" > "Irregular," but the text does not wrap.

    Hi Timothy,
    Click on the text frame to select it, then go Options > Frame Links
    Wrap in Draw documents will work only if the text is in a frame to which Frame linking has been applied. It's not necessary that the frame be actually linked to a second frame.
    Regards,
    Barry

  • TEXT-INDENT NOT WORKING

    Hi!
    Please see the below CSS code, why isn't the text-indent not
    working? everything else is?
    a.quick_link_buttons:link {
    color : #004489;
    font-family : Myriad, Arial, Helvetica, Verdana, sans-serif;
    font-size : 12px;
    text-indent : 10px;
    line-height : 20px;
    text-decoration : none;
    font-style : normal;
    font-weight : normal;
    a.quick_link_buttons:hover {
    color : #004489;
    font-family : Myriad, Arial, Helvetica, Verdana, sans-serif;
    font-size : 12px;
    text-indent : 10px;
    line-height : 20px;
    text-decoration : underline;
    font-style : normal;
    font-weight : normal;
    Many Thanks!

    You don't need to respecify styles that will inherit or
    default styles. You
    could achieve the same styles with the following -
    a.quick_link_buttons {
    color : #004489;
    font-family : Myriad, Arial, Helvetica, Verdana, sans-serif;
    font-size : 12px;
    text-indent : 10px;
    line-height : 20px;
    text-decoration : none;
    a.quick_link_buttons:hover {
    text-decoration : underline;
    As for why the indent isn't working, try 'padding-left:10px;'
    instead, when
    applied to the inline element. Or, you can have a rule that
    will apply to
    the container for these links, e.g.,
    <div style="text-indent:10px;">
    <a class="quick_link_buttons">whatever</a>
    </div>

    I have Adobe Photoshop Elements 10. It came installed on my HP Desktop. I am can not get the warp text tool to work. It has worked in the past. Once I click warp text, the little window does not pop up, and if I try to do anything else after I click warp text, it wont let me. Just sounds the ding, alert, can still slightly navigate the program but can not use any other tools after clicking warp text. I just have to open task manager and close the program. not sure if I'm doing something wrong or maybe I just need to uninstall and re install. Having trouble finding out how to uninstall and reinstall because the program came pre installed on my desktop.

    It actually sounds like the warp text window is opening off screen.
    Resetting the photoshop elements 10 preferences should fix it.
    *Press and hold the Shift+Ctrl+Alt keys just after you start the launch of the photoshop elements 10 editor
    *Keep holding the keys down until you get a dialog asking if you want to delete the adobe photoshop elements setting file
    *Press Yes

    The iPhone is working exactly as it is designed.
    Your options are:
    1) Unplug the headset.
    2) Leave the headset plugged in and the earpiece in your ear at all times.
    3) Turn on vibrate and put the phone in your pocket.
    4) Leave feedback for Apple and hope they deem it worthy of their time to fix.

  • TouchUp Text Tool not working?

    I have Max OS X 10.4, Acrobat 8.1.2 and cannot get the TouchUp Text Tool to work? Can select text and delete/copy/paste etc but cannot add/change/modify any text from the keyboard? All keyboard text keys not working or changing data?
    Was using Acrobat 7 and it worked great, however this version is just not cooperating.
    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated...
    Thanks,
    Ron

    I talked to a very helpful person at Adobe Acrobat Tech support yesterday (Tony) and I *think* I have the problem resolved. [BTW, I don't see any definite mentions to this here: during this problem I was able to delete (using either of the delete keys) text and I was able to hit 'return' to get to a new line - while using the touch-up text tool. Also, I was able to create a new blank document and type in next fine too.]
    After troubleshooting all the possible causes with Tech support (including manually trashing all the /user/library/preferences/acrobat (folder) and all the com.adobe.acrobat ..(8) preferences in the /user/library/preferences folder - and after reinstalling Acrobat 8 - the issue still wasn't fixed. I called back Tech Support and got the same person (Tony) and with him still on phone, I created a new user on my Mac -- recreated the text touch-up tool problem and Acrobat 8 worked just like it was supposed to do. -- so ... the problem was in my 'old' user account & probably a font problem.
    Tony the Tech transfered me over to a Font Tech at Adobe (who was a rude, nasty s-o-b who barely spent 2 minutes with the problem, but that's IMHO) who told me the only resolution, since in his opinion I had a corrupted User account, was to trash my current User account on my system and start fresh -- no alternative! Since that wasn't acceptable to me, and since the Font Tech could or would not give me a straight answer about transferring fonts from my User/Library/Fonts to the computer (root, not system) /Library/Fonts and working on Acrobat that way .... or fixing any font problems in my current /user/fonts -- ..... I hung up the phone and resolved to track this down myself (with the help that was already given to me by Tony the Acrobat Tech.
    The first thing I tried this morning was to see if the Acrobat 8 text touch-up 'bug' was still happening -- and it was.
    So I spent the rest of this morning validating fonts and deleting duplicates -- (you know how those nasty duplicate fonts just appear even though you think you have them all removed a month or so ago). I also moved all my Adobe otf fonts over to my /Library/Fonts and deleted those same fonts from my /User/Library/Fonts.
    I just fired up Acrobat 8 and tried the text touch-up tool --- and it works fine! No problem at all.
    Final answer (at least for me) is --> validate all your fonts. I used Font Book (Mac OS) to do this. Delete any major errors on fonts you can live without. Some of the warnings you get (on the critical errors and caution warning both are confusing: 'name' table warning, for example. I did find an Apple Developer document that explains (to a small degree) what these mean: http://developer.apple.com/textfonts/TTRefMan/index.html
    Definitely delete every duplicate font you find. I kept some non-duplicated fonts with minor warnings, but these fonts wouldn't be used in Acrobat anyway.
    I don't know if moving the Adobe otf fonts to my root /Library/Fonts helped or not since I didn't do a test of this prior to any validation on my user/font file. It was just one step in my bug fix.
    Let me know if this works for you all too.

  • Adobe XI - Hightlight text tool not working

    Just downloaded adobe XI and the hightlight text tool not working.  How can I get this to work.

    I guess you can always use the box tool in drawing markups to draw a box around the text then play with the colors until you get close to what you want.
    The only thing I don't like about that (besides it being a PITA) is that it covers the text with color as well where the highlight tool does not.
