Highlight Object Under Selection Tool not working?

Hello,
After the latest update 10.1.0.70, obejcts under the selection tool are not highlighted. Has anybody else encountered such issue? I reset InDesign to its defaults, but that didn't help. Any suggestions?
Thanks.

  • Highlight Object Under Selection Tool

    In InDesign CC 2014.2, objects are highlighting even though I have this option unchecked.

  • HELP!!!! Path selection tool not working.

    Earlier today my path selection tool was working fine. I was able to add vectors and move them around. Now all it is doing is moving the
    whole shape instead of the selected vector. I tried restarting the program, opening different projects and I even tried rebooting the PC all together. Still works the same. I dont know what happened or how to fix it. I really wanted to push out a project before 5pm CST I would be ever so grateful if someone knew how to fix this.

    Hi, LarissaPryor. I'm afraid you've made a wrong turn somewhere, since Photoshop Elements has no Path Selection tool, so you must have full Photoshop. Better to ask in the appropriate Photoshop forum. For windows:

  • Selection tools not working properly -- Illustrator CS6

    The two selection tools in CS6 Illustrotor not working properly.  They don't select the object when I click and drag a box around them and the handles on drawing path won't stay highlighted when I use the direct selection tool so I can adjust them -- Worked in Illustrator for about 12 years and never had this problem.

  • Quick selection tool not working correctly

    I am trying to extract a portion of a photo...i tried using the selection tool to extract the portion on another picture, and it worked GREAT!
    Now i'm trying to use it in another photo and the refine image tool isn't extracting it into a new layer like it did with the other one!
    is there something that i may have clicked or turned off that is preventing me from making this extraction??

    Hello,
      Could you be more specifc as to what you are doing here?
      You mention using selections tools, including the Quick Selection tool, but these tools only create selections, they do not extract the material you have selected. A selection is like highlighting text in a word processor, after you have highlighted the text you can copy/paste it or modify it, but simply highlighting it doesn't do anything. Same with selections, once you have created a selection with a tool like Quick Selection you can how copy/paste it to a new image or perform adjustments to just that area.
      I'm not sure what you mean by the "refine image tool", we don't have anything by that name. However, we do have a Refine Edge option that helps to make cleaner edges to your selection.

  • Perspective Selection Tool not working

    I can't figure out why the selection tool won't work.  When active, I can't grab an object to move it and the icon next to the selection arrow is a line with an arrow pointing to the left, like this
    <–|
    Any suggestions?

    That is normal and the correct icon, showing you are on the left plane. Is your item locked or on a locked layer, or in a mask? Watch the appearance paeltte to tell you what type of selection you have.
    Try drawing a new rectangle as a test to see what is working and what is not.
    With the Perspective Selection tool, the active planes in the perspective grid are indicated by the following pointers.
    Left Grid Plane
    Right Grid Plane
    Horizontal Grid Plane
    The keyboard shortcuts 1, 2, 3 switch you between planes

  • The selection tool not working

    The selection tool in Illustrator is not functioning as normal. It won't allow me to automatically click on a path or group of objects and show the rectangular marquee that automatically gives me a corner to grab and scale the selected items. How can I get this function to work again?

    Sounds like you are missing the bounding box. Got to View>Show Bounding Box.

  • Selection tool not working... please help

    I am using Illustrator CS 5.1 and the selection tool has stopped working.
    It lets me select the object, but when I go to drag it I get an error sound and it won't move.  No error message appears so I'm not sure what is wrong.
    I've tried locking and unlocking all objects, and opening previously working files, but all now have this same problem.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated as I've got a coursework deadline due next monday...
    Thanks in advance.

    Common accident.
    Precisely because it seems to be such a common accident (because B and H are too close to G on the keyboard) it's not a bad idea to redistribute your keyboard shortcuts. So if you think you are Grouping and accidentally hit Cmd+B or Cmd+H you won't get into trouble.
    I have redistributed a lot of mine. Things like Cmd+U for Ungroup (of course) and Cmd+Shift+G for Smart Guides, Cmd+L for Average (like it was in the old days) and that sort of thing. Keep more complex 3-key combinations for more seldom used commands and remember that a lot of commands are used so seldom that you go to the menu for them anyway.
    If you find some of the default keyboard shortcuts illogical or difficult to remember, just change them. It will make save you a lot of frustration in the long run. One sometimes wonders why so many of the commonly used keyboard commands were made more complicated in newer versions of Illie. Personally I can see no good reason for it.

  • Illustrator CS - Selection Tool not working correctly

    Hi all...
    A customer of ours has an odd Illustrator CS problem. When she tries to use the Selection Tool to select any item, it auto-selects everything. Even if she uses the selection box by dragging the cursor over anything, it selects all the different items in the image.
    Has anyone seen this or fixed it before?
    Many thanks!

    How about this?...
    With the selection tool/black arrow tool, you can select the object, change the color or opacity and move it...but can't un-group it.
    With the direct select tool/white arrow tool, when you try to select an individual shape to make slight changes to the path...the anchor points will show up as you mouse over them, but nothing shows when you click on the path.
    When drawing a new shape with the pen tool, the anchor points don't show as you draw the shape. No handles appear...but the shape shows up. It's like feeling your way around a dark room on instinct.
    ...and it's only doing this in one particular file. When another file is opened all the quirks listed above do not happen. Each tool works as it should.

  • Text select tool not working properly

    When I use the text select tool, it selects columns, not words in a row, which is what I want. It used to work correctly. I am using Acrobat Pro, version 9.0.0.
    I tried adding the ALT key, with no good result.

    Is it with this specific document o any pdf you work on?
    If it was earlier working fine for you, try repairing Acrobat  by going to 'Help' menu > Repair Acrobat.
    Also make sure you have updated it to the latest patch.

  • Selections tools not working properly in Photoshop CC 2014

    Just installed Photoshop CC 2014. For some reason I cannot get my quick selection tool and quick mask to work properly. I can make a selection but when I try to make a mask I get all kinds of artifacting going on. I try to use quick select to clean up the artifacting to no avail, in fact I start to get different artifacting in the selection that cannot be removed by the brush tool. HELP. To bad I uninstalled Photoshop CC. Can I reinstall Photoshop CC somehow? Anybody out there with the same problems? The focus area will not work also?

    At this moment, I have tried : Reset the "Adobe Photoshop Settings File" (When you open Photoshop, push "option + command + shift" for Apple).
    Not ok.

  • Magic Quick Selection Tool NOT working right. Help please?

    We've used the magic quick selection tool lots and most of the time it works well.
    It's very slow.............. v  e r y slow and I'm wondering if there's a patch to download from Adobe or
    what to do to fix this.  We have pictures to edit and it's making the editing torture.  Please help?
    Thank you so much. tkccvalentine

    It's the Quick Selection Tool in Photoshop Elements 9 and I'm trying to get the background and make it another layer so I can even out the color of the background then bring down the transparency.  Not sure if that makes sense.  I'm new to this....  Sometimes the area it will grab can go ...not fast.. but not slow.  Sometimes it's like it's just messed up and literally takes 30 seconds to process each move.  I rebooted my computer and re opened it and it helped a little.  It's not clear what causes it when it messes up and when it doesn't.  Just frustrating.  It's probably user error because I'm so new at Photoshop.   Thanks for your input.   I really appreciate it.

  • ILL 10 selection tool not working

    I'm working in Illustrator 10 on a Mac, 10.3.9.
    When I use the selection tool and click on an object or text block I no longer get the bounding box. If I select a circle it is selected as if I were using the direct selection tool. I can no longer scale an object using the selection tool or decrease the size of a text box. Any insight into this would be great. I don't know if I accidentally reset one of the preferences or if something has gone buggy with the program.
    thanks in advance.

  • Selection tool not working and cannot select layers

    Just loaded up cs5 w/ indesign and tried to start using indesign. To my dismay the selection tool and the layers will not high light when pointed to or work when clicked upon. these are the only tool i've found not to be working so far. 

    Are you using Windows 7, if so, see InDesign tools and panels don't respond to mouse clicks (Windows 7/Vista)
    If not, what is the OS, and what language is the installation of ID?
