Live Corners disappeared on me... What's up?

The widget is being shown. I don't know why it disappeared.. I've been building almost all of this project using these things and now I can't?

The issue wasn't within the
View > Hide Corner Widget
It was because of
View > Show Edges
Don't accidentally press Ctrl+H and not know about it

Live corners disappear after scaling shape

The Live Corners feature is welcome in Illustrator 17.1, but I find that it works inconsistently. One issue that I've isolated is that scaling a path makes the live corners disappear.
To reproduce:
Create a rounded rectangle
Select the path
Click the direct selection tool to verify that Live Corners are present
Click the selection tool
Scale the rounded rectangle (say drag up from the scale point in the middle of the bottom side)
Click the direct selection tool - where are the live corners?
Is that a bug? Is that a design choice?

I'm trying to use live corners, but I too get the shape scaled incorrectly . If I create a square and create rounded corners with the DS arrow, that's fine. but if I want to make the square a rounded rectangle, the live corners distort. This is the same behavior as the rounded rectangle tool. it only keeps the "Live Corners" live if you scale it proportionally. I thought the reason to have a feature called LIVE CORNERS was to keep corners LIVE-even after scaling. The Stylize filter works better at this. Am I missing something? I hope so, because Photoshop does rounded corners better this. I thought the whole reason for the "live corners" was to FINALLY have this available in Adobe's main vector-drawing tool, Illustrator. Maybe this feature is not fully realized.

Illustrator CC: Live corners and snapping disappeared

Hi there,
I am using Illustrator CC and recently I have noticed that I can no longer snap and aligh objects to each other (with the automatic highlighted green color, which shows you the center, intersect e.t.c). As well as the Live corners aren't present, after pressing Direct selection tool nothing changes. None of the settings were changed, at least I was ticking snap to function back, but it didn't change anything again.
Can someone tell me what is wrong and why I just can't see the Live corners? I was also able to see the green helping lines between shapes before, but now it isn't working at all. I am running it on Windows 7.

Thanks! It did help! Such a pity I didn't know that the toggle thing can be enabled and disabled by a shortcut. And I was looking for direct "Live corners" function, but it is just named somehow differently in the View. Now everything is working, thanks again!

Live Corners - Change one corner individually - I've tried what the tutorials say to do

Live Corners: I can't change only one corner at a time when holding alt/option while clicking (or when I click and drag) the widget with the direct selection tool. Instead it changes all the corners at once. How do I get it to change one corner individually?

Agreed, the steps in the video cannot be reproduced faithfully in the current software (18.0.0). Granted when he talks about changing the radius of a corner independently he selects a control point. Earlier however he appears to change a single corner style with the entire shape selected. This I cannot do.
As far as I can tell there is no reason why the operation ALT/OPT + manipulation of the corner widget can't result in single control of that radius. The ALT/OPT key along with the white arrow tool doesn't seem to be any different than with no modifier key.
The tool is a very good idea on the whole but the intuitive approach should be the one that works.

Live Corners Widget is missing in new download of AI 2014 x64

I did not know a built in Widget could go missing in a app but here I am...
I just downloaded most of the creative Cloud Apps just yesterday after a system crash, after which I wiped the drives including Users (Windows 7.1+ all updated and fresh. Just got working in AI tonight and went for the live corner Widget and , and,..., It had disappeared. No windows>Panel options, Nothing in all references, tool bars, or content menus-with the sole exception of View/Hide Live Corners. I clicked it back and forth: hide/show, hide-show, hide-show, nothing worked. (It was working just fine in the "Pre-Crash" install but in this install it is just--gone. Is there a way to extract the component from the downloaded file and replace what is KO'ed in this install. Or should I re-install?. I have been around computers for-jeep 1/4 century, so no need the beginner, "did you plug it in yet? kind of stuff. Unless-- I forgot? Every thing else is working just fine?

DBellas,
It may be time for the list, 6) being the ultimate one.
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); 5) is a list in itself, and 6) is the last resort.
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 Ctrl+Alt+Shift/Cmd+Option+Shift 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.

Cannot enable Live Corners in Illustrator CC

I'm excited to use the new Illustrator Live Corner Feature but for some reason using the Direct Select tool does not bring up the live corners on any shape I make. I am using Illustrator CC 64 bit on a PC runnign Windows 7. Am I missing something?

This is what I see with the direct selection tool selecting my shape .... I don't see the corner dialoge box or any of the stuff they show on the demo video...

I have CC and want Illustrator 17 (live corners feature) for 64 bit windows--where do I get it?

Currently have Adobe CC Illustrator 16.2.0 on Windows 64 bit and want to update to 17.1 so I can use the live corners feature. Where can I download this update? It wasn't located where I thought it would be: http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=27&platform=Windows
Thanks for your help.

You need to install Creative Cloud app from where you can install Illustrator 17 and 18 versions

OS X Yosemite with Adobe Illustrator CC doesn't show live corners or curve handles

After updating to Yosemite, my Illustrator no longer shows me the live corners handle. Even when I click on an object it will not show the points or the curve handles on the vector shape.

Did you reinstall your Adobe apps after updating to 10.10? If not, do so now probably running the cleaner tool in between.

Live Corners - Not working in CS6

The simplest of things - using Live Corners in InDesign - when it's working!
I had some issues with ID a little over a week ago and St. Peter Spier helped me out with them. Hoping Peter can help on this one, too.
I can edit the corners using the Object . . .Corner Option menu commands, but not on the frame itself. The yellow diamonds move around the frame but nothing happens.
I looked online to see if anyone else is experiencing this issue but came up empty.
Thanks for your help.

Dear Peter:
I reset the Preferences twice; the first time no difference w/Live corners. I did it a second time, and then I shut down the computer, and Live corners worked the next day when I started the computer and opened ID.
Less than two minutes after I launched ID, I got a message that I had to finish registering my copy of ID - the same thing that happened about two weeks ago - and ID shut down until I could get the computer over to the college to get them to register the username and password.
This registration nonsense has been a real pain in the butt. Now I wonder about the next time I have to reset the Preferences. Will InDesign shut down on me again, until I "complete the Registration process?" Calling Adobe hasn't worked, (l-o-n-g waits; being disconnected multiple times; not getting the correct answers).
Thanks for your help. I do appreciate your responses very much!

PS - Live corners is working again . . .

Live corners not showing

Hi
I have lots of forms from CS4 each had many boxes with 3 rounded corners and one square corner. In CS5 all the square corners changed to rounded corners. When I click on the box I do not see the yellow diamonds indicating live corners. Is there any way to turn live corners on for these boxes?
Thanks in advance

Sounds like the square corner on those boxes was made using a trick that existed in older versions that doesn't work now. I can't be totally sure because I never knew about it until recently and so I'm not sure how it works. But if it was it would have broken the live corner options when you opened it in CS5.
Anyway to answer your question, try going Object > Convert Shape > Rectangle. I can't test whether it will work here or not but it should.

Live Corners and Smart Guides

I am so in love with the fact that live corners are a thing now in Illustrator. I have been waiting for this forever. Or at least, something close it. Unfortunately they're missing a major component that would unclock so many opportunities with them—the ability to interact with the live corner center points while using other tools.
If, for example, smart guides recognize live corner center points, you could create circles with the ellipse tool from them that exactly matched the contour of the live corner. You could of course create additional shapes from that and continue to create really complex, completely accurate shapes, just because you have access to that one center point. Rotate other objects around it, scale objects to it, and so on.
The current implementation is such a missed opportunity. Here's to hoping that in a near future version, other tools, like smart guides and normal guides, recognize the existence of these center points!

Thanks! It did help! Such a pity I didn't know that the toggle thing can be enabled and disabled by a shortcut. And I was looking for direct "Live corners" function, but it is just named somehow differently in the View. Now everything is working, thanks again!

How do I move/duplicate small objects without CC 2014 live corners getting in the way!?

Hi folks,
I'm finding a problem with live corners on the recent Illustrator CC2014 update...
Live Corners used to be a feature of the direct selection tool but now its on both types of selector as default... Much as I love live corners and use it all the time, its now impossible (or really bloody awkward) to move or duplicate (with holding alt and dragging) small rectangles. E.g if I wanted to duplicate out lots of small windows in a building for example. It just grabs a corner and makes its a circle. Zooming in gets around this but it doesn't really solve the problem. I'm also aware that you can turn the live corners off entirely but if I had to do that every time I needed it, we may as well go back to the days of effect>stylise>round corners.
Anyone else come across this new frustration or have a work around?

Oh, I thought you were talking about the gigantic corner handles, and being able to completely disable live rectangles. The internal rounded corner handles are not a problem for me because they are eternally hidden (via that very menu command) unless I specifically select one or more corners with the direct selection tool, which makes sense.

I have an apple Iphone 5s and i'm facing a problem. Sometimes when i unlock my phone with passcode or finger tip my screen goes white around the corners. Please advice what kind of issue is this.

Sounds like a hardware issue. Bring the phone to Apple for evaluation.
