CANNOT RESIZE THE RECTANGLE/ROUNDED RECTANGLE in Ai CC14

Hi
I cannot resize my rectangle shape with the selection tool. Cannot see the bounding box around it and when I hover over the corners of the rectangle a curve appears under the arrowhead. I have tried everything but nothing works.
Help please. Thanks
(using cc14 and have uninstalled/installed Ai twice)

naeem,
I am afraid you have come across the Live Rectangle bug which is limited to the MAC versions starting with 10.7 and 10.8, but not 10.9 (Mavericks), see this thread linked to below.
https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1595973
So a switch to Mavericks with a reinstallation might be the way to solve it here and now.
To get round it in each case, it is possible to Expand the Live Rectangles to get normal old fashioned rectangles, or to Pathfinder>Unite, or to use the Scale Tool.
A more permanent way round that is to create normal old fashioned rectangles, after running the free script created by Pawel, see this thread with download link:

    I agree.
    It was very useful to reduce everything to small and quickly scan down looking for missing artwork.
    Particularly useful when I only connect to the machine with iTunes via screen sharing, so everything can be a bit slower to scroll through at times.
    In fact, itunes 11 when used purely as a server for Apple TV etc is a downgrade in usability IMO, as they've got rid of some of the useful views that helped me manage my library remotely.

  • Fix the pathetic rounded-rectangle tool.

    Ugh, why do we waste our time?
    I made a rounded rectangle with the rounded-rectangle tool.  Then, as often happens, I needed to change the corner radius.  Of course the "help" was useless, so a Web search revealed that YOU CAN'T CHANGE THE RADIUS.
    Can I get a WTF here?
    Oh, but then I read that there's an alternate way to create a rounded rectangle, which is to draw a regular rectangle and then apply a rounded-rectangle "effect" to it.
    Dare I ask the question that should be obvious to even the most computer-illiterate imbecile in the audience:  Why didn't the rounded-rectangle tool do this in the first place?

    Anyone being harsh on Corel Draw hasn't compared it to Illustrator.  Illustrator's useless selection mode alone is a deal-breaker: http://www.flickr.com/photos/forensicpics/1800773495/in/set-72157600304785497

  • I cannot resize the selected text and the object in Illustrator

    I am unable to resize the text and the object with transform tool. It resizes but half of it does not. and not that much i want.

    Ok so if i write some text and all the words are of different sizes and i have to resize it using the transform tool, i cannot resize it unto the size i want. e.g.. i wrote this text "The Big Bold Sale" all the words are of different sizes and are grouped together, so when i resize it using transform tool all these words are resized differently "The big" becomes big, "bold" becomes little smaller and "sale" is not resized.. the image is attached.

  • Cannot resize the message 'read/unread' column in leopard mail.

    I cannot seem to resize the message 'read/unread' column in leopard mail. All other columns (from, subject, date received, size etc) can be resized as normal, however the read/unread "blue dots" are taking up an inordinate amount of space and will not for the life of me resize!
    it is driving me crazy...is this a leopard bug or am I just doing something wrong? thank you very much.

  • I cannot resize the search bar

    The two headed arrow that is supposed to allow me to change the size of the search bar does not appear.

    Make sure that you don't have a add-on called "Searchbar Autosizer" installed. You won't get the double arrow cursor to resize the address and search bars. Took me a long time searching to find the problem.

  • ITunes window stuck at the top - cannot resize the window

    Is this part of some glitch that's running around?
    When I open iTunes (11.2.2 running on 10.9.3) - the top bar is extended above the top of my screen - so I can't resize it - the red, yellow and green buttons are all out of sight - above - and I've tried everything to get them back - everything is cut off at the top.
    Any simple solution, I'm sure?

    So this is what it looks like - and it's not on full screen mode - I can't access the red, yellow or green buttons to resize - I can resize the sides and bottom - but can't click on the very top to drag it down - and when I play music - you can't see what track is playing or the scrub bar (?) - only if I then go into full screen mode.  But no matter what I do - iTunes always opens stuck at the top.

  • Mac CS5 Illustrator rectangle/round rectangle stroke problem...

    I have an IMac with 10.6.3. and have CS5 installed. But i have encountered a problem in Illustrator.
    When I draw a rectangle or round cornered rectangle I can't stroke it below 1 point. It just snaps back to 1pt.
    It is fine though when drawing a circle, star etc. in the same tool.
    The blue outline and handles go completely out of position if I align the stroke to inside or outside. And then if I
    reduce the stroke I can BUT it kind of cuts the rectangle weirdly.
    This is a BIG problem...please help someone.

    n,
    You should untick Align to pixel grid in the transform palette/panel.

  • Cannot resize the partition C

    Hi,
    I have a problem with resizing my partition C on Windows 8.1. It only has 28 GB and I have run out of every space. The Disc manager for resizing partitions is not working (every option for a Disc C is greyed out). I downloaded three partition managers: Paragon,
    Aomei and one more (don't remember the name, cause I deleted it already). All of them were supported by Windows 8.1 32 bit. And still it was not possible to do anything with the disk C, even though I have a lot of unallocated space to use. 
    I also deleted disk D, so that only Disk C was left, and still I couldn't allocate any space to it, only to shrink it.
    Can anyone tell me what else can I do?
    It is driving me crazy already. Help please.
    Marta

    Hello,
    I used aomei partition assistant before in my windows 8.1, it worked well. do you use "resize partition" in aomei partition assistant to extend you c drive? if you do like this, the unallocated space on your hard disk should be contiguous behind
    the partition c, or you can't extend partition. but if the unallocated space is not contigous behind partition c, you an use extend partition wizard or merge partitions to extend partitionc

    Hello Hussein
    Thank you very much for your reply. I actually followed the note ID and it is a bug in 12.0, where is already fixed in my case as the applications version is 12.1.1
    My issue here is that no matter the custom logo size is, it will be only fit with the original Oracle logo size, which is smaller than the corporate logo.
    Oracle logo size: WxH is 155 x 20
    Corporate logo size: WxH is 400 x 100
    Currently the corporate logo is rendered and displayed as the size of Oracle Logo WxH 155 x 20. I need help in where to do the modification for the corporate logo rendered and displayed as its original size, 400 x 100. After that, I will need to modify the height of the header to fit with the new logo size.
    Please help.
    Thank you

  • Specify the corner radius of a rounded rectangle

    This question was posted in response to the following article: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/illustrator/cs/using/WS714a382cdf7d304e7e07d0100196cbc5f-6261a .html

    It's just a small part of a much larger lameness: Unlike every other mainstream drawing program, Illustrator has never provided live geometric primitive objects (ellipses, rectangles, polygons, stars with live geometric parameters). When you use Illustrator's LBO tools (Lines, Boxes, Ovals), you just end up with dumb ordinary paths with no live adjustments.
    The Convert To Shape Effect is a completely unintuitive, anemic, incomplete, tagged-on workaround for lack of one of the most commonly taken-for-granted drawing feature sets on the planet. Not that Convert To Shape is usless; it isn't. But it's ridiculous that it is limited to just rectangles, rounded rectangles, and ellipses. Why would such a feature not be able to use any shaped path (in fact, anything stored as a Symbol)?
    Regardless, Convert To Shape is not a reasonable substitute for proper geometric primitives tools. For just one example, compare FreeHand's single Ellipse tool to Illustrator's utterly lame Ellipse and Arc tools combined. This single intuitive and elegently designed tool serves for circles, circular arcs, ellipses, and elliptical arcs, either freehand or with numerical precision; and those parameters can be changed any time the user wants. This also makes the tool servicable as something Illustrator has never heard of: an elliptical "protractor" that can be utilized to determine correctly foreshortened line lengths at any viewing angle.
    That's an example of the kind of just-under-the-surface power that a single thoughtfully-designed and thoroughly-integrated drawing interface can yield. Compare that to the underpowered tool-glut clutter that so saturates Illustrator.

  • Change corner radius of rounded rectangles after drawing them

    It is great that vector shapes feel even "smarter" in CS6, allowing you to change the stroke width and color after drawing them.
    Designing user interfaces, I use a lot of rounded rectangles, and I often have to change the corner radius of a rounded rectangle that I've drawn by a pixel or two. Rather than having to trash the original shape and making a new one, it would be great if you could select the existing rounded rectangle and change the corner radius. I realize that there is a dilema: the user is technically free to move anchor points around and change the object from a rounded rectangle; but Photoshop could basically keep track of whether or not the shape's anchor points have been modified, and whether or not it should still be classified as a rounded rectangle.
    Alternatively, this might be an even better solution: rather than having the rounded rectangle be its own shape tool, as it currently is, just give users the rectangle tool, and let them adjust the corner radius of a rectangle at any time in the tool's options bar. The rounded edges of the rectangle would technically not be created with anchor points, it would be more like a smart effect that Photoshop is performing by rounding the edges. Another benefit of this would be that you could free tranform the rectangle, and the rounded corners would not get screwed up as they currently do, because Photoshop knows that this is just a rectangle shape that you always want to have rounded corners on.

    Oh thanks for the heads up, I had not seen the Photoshop GetSatisfaction page before. Here is a topic with the idea: http://feedback.photoshop.com/photoshop_family/topics/it_would_be_good_if_the_roundrect_ve ctor_tool_corner_radius_was_editable_during_and_after_drawing

  • Why cannot I resize the Tiles area of the start menu when the Task Bar is anywhere but at the bottom (Left, Right, Top)

    I have been using the Taskbar on the LEFT. Even before it came to windows, I used a freeware taskbar written by some dev - if I am not mistaken in Windows 3
    This is because it is always easier to move the mouse Left-Right than Up-Down without lifting your hand off the mouse to reset the position, especially now in these times of hires monitors.
    The taskbar is by default at the bottom in Win 10. Why? Who knows. I moved it to the left.  I found that when the taskbar is at the bottom, I could pop out the startmenu and RESIZE the TILES area. 
    But in any other position, Left, Top or Right you cannot resize the tile area of the taskbar. You first have to set it to the bottom, resize and then reset it left and if this is the wrong size for you you have to go thru all this over and over.
    Since resizing is allowed for the taskbar it should not be restricted to only the bottom setting users.
