No Pen Tool - InDesign CS6

I cannot find the Pen Tool in my InDesign toolbar.  Please help me.

Click and hold the one under the T (text tool). It's set to the Convert Point tool at the moment.
All tools with the little triangle have multiple tools hidden.

  • How to add a 'stoke path' using 'pen tool' on CS6 (mac)?

    I'm a beginner at photoshop and I'm only 14 years old. I need to know this for my GCSE project.
    I'm trying to create something similar to this:
    Using pen tool and stroke path, but when i use the pen tool I'm not sure how to add the stroke path like that.
    I've used CS4 previously at school and when you right clicked on the path it came up with this:
    I haven't a clue how to get that up on CS6 (on mac) and when you right click it, it just seems to continue adding the path. Any help?

    In addition to conroys advice here is a video tutorial that might help you as well:

  • Photoshop CS6 Pen tool ( Clipping Path )

    Hello all  what is new feature adding photoshop CS6 for Pen tool anybody know ?

    There are many ways to mask and many ways to create mask.  When something you want to mask has a well defined shape it edges are made of straight and curved line segments then the pen tool is the best tool for selecting that object.  Masking is all about making good selections.  You would not use the pen tool to select/isolate a person with hair that is flowing in the wind.  I do not know if anything new was added to the pen tool in CS6. You can look up what was added to photoshop in each release on the web adobe and other sites have that information available.

  • Can't Successfully Click on Many Tools/Options in InDesign CS6

    I am a creative cloud member and I am having trouble with InDesign CS6.  Outwardly, it seems to install fine, but when I start it up I am unable to click on many of the options.  I can create a new document, and I can add a text box.  However, when I click to change any aspect of the font, nothing happens.  It is like I am not really clicking.  I am able to click and use the pen and text tool, but not the move arrow tool.  Interestingly, if I use the keyboard shortcut (V), I am able to switch to the move arrow.  Also, I can see the pages pallet, but I can’t successfully click on any aspect of it.  Likewise, I can view the layers pallet, but I can’t click the triangle next to layer 1 to open its contents.    I am confident that it’s not a problem with my mouse because I can consistently click on the text tool successfully, and also because all my other programs work normally. 
    I am a frequent user of Illustrator CS6 and Photoshop CS6, both of which work perfectly.  I have downloaded all of the latest updates for InDesign.  I am using a PC with Windows 7 64bit and 6mb of ram. 
    Thank you for any advice you can offer, --Kate

  • After Effects CS6 11.0.2 crashes when using the pen tool (Mac OS X 10.8.2)

    I'm using After Effects CS6 11.0.2 on Mac OS X 10.8.2. Whenever I use the pen tool to add a vertex, the application crashes. I've submitted several crash reports to apple (they get sent to apple automatically when the app relaunches).
    My specs:
    iMac
    21.5-inch, Mid 2010
    Processor  3.06 GHz Intel Core i3
    Memory  12 GB 1333 MHz DDR3
    Graphics  ATI Radeon HD 4670 256 MB
    Software  OS X 10.8.2 (12C60)
    Anybody else having this problem or have a solution?

    So I have discovered it only crashes when adding a vertex when I'm editing the max a few frames in. When I add vertices on the first frame of the comp I don't have any trouble. I've tried unchecking the box that says preserve constant vertex count, and it still happens.

  • InDesign CS6 Text Tool Crashes App

    As soon as I try to choose the text tool in InDesign CS6, it completely crashes (will included my entire crash log below)
    I actually found this thread before starting mine.
    http://forums.adobe.com/message/4798907#4798907
    However that did not help me at all. Deleting the preferences is not a solution to my issue (was really hoping it would be that easy).
    I am on an up to date Mountain Lion (10.8.2), Macbook Pro Retina.
    I immediately checked out my Fonts, and nothing seems out of the ordinary. In fact this Macbook itself is a rather new acquisition, so I have the standards, the Adobe Fonts that come with CS5 & CS6, and exactly 3 fonts I have installed on my own (already tried disabling them in Font Book, still the same issue).
    InDesign CS5 works no problems. It is only InDesign CS6. I just recently was able to get the CS6 Suite through work prior to the holidays, so this is the first time I have used InDesign CS6 since installing it.
    I actually also manually went through all of my fonts, 1 by 1, and disabled any I did not need. I also Validated Fonts, found 14 issues, either disabled or removed the issues completely, validated them again, and no more issues. So really not sure what else I can do with my Fonts, they are more streamlined than they ever have been in the past.
    So any and all ideas are welcome. I prefer to use the CS6 version since it was purchased and should work. TIA for any help offered.

    Hi Bob
    We're actually using your Lynda tutorial for our training, it's such a great resource thank you.
    Here's a thread I was reading which wasn't helpful for myself although I did try some solutions that were relevant to me.
    Re: InDesign CS 6 Folio Builder crashing
    Solutions tried:
    - Re installing InDesign CS6
    - Downloaded DPS updates directly from Adobe
    - One post suggested deleting my cache file/folders which would result in any folios I've made deleted however this
    is the first time I've used the DPS tools in Adobe so I didn't worry.
    - I've also deleted/reset my preferences
    Is there anything else you can suggest?

  • Why does Indesign CS6 Tools panel cover up the left side rulers?

    Every time I open a window in Indesign CS6 I have to slide the window to the right so I can use the left-hand ruler and the x close button. Is there any way to change this in preferences? Or is this a glitch?
    Thanks!

    It is actually not a preference.
    Method 1: Go to menu WINDOWS->ARRANGE
    Method 2: Move the window with the mouse. When the window edges touch the tool bar edges, the window should be framed by a blue frame. Let go and it will be tabbed.

  • Indesign CS6 tool selection problem

    I can't select tools within indesign CS6 on my Macbook pro retina, running windows 7 via bootcamp. I have tried deleting preferences which had no effect. Any ideas?

    Thank you Peter, that was the problem, everything is working perfectly now.

  • Pen tool and masking in cs6.

    In previous versions I could create a custom (vector) mask using the pen tool in 2 easy steps.
    Draw a shape then drag that shape to the image i wanted the mask on. Done.
    This "feature" has been removed from CS6 and its extremely annoying. Or has it just become a lot more complicated to achieve this?
    I know i can create a clipping mask using the shape layer but that requires another visible layer in the layers panel. Having "roto'd" 50 elements in previous versions in the same workspace gave me 50 layers (cleaning up the solid black shapelayers after). In CS6 it gives me 100 layers.
    I know i can select the shape as a selection and then apply a mask but that would make the mask a solid. I want to be able to move my tangents around etc. 100% non-destructively.
    I work 100% non destructive and yes, my psd's become very large but thats no biggie, my computer can handle it. I don't want to rasterize.
    If you have CS5.5 or earlier versions, create a shape and drag that shape to the layer you want to mask, remove the fill layer and you'll see what i mean. Thats what i want to be able to do in CS6.
    Is this 100% gone from CS6?

    You are being affected by an almighty f**kup by the Photoshop CS6 User Interface designers.
    With CS6, Adobe try to pretend that Shape Layers are a wonderful new type of layer. The reality is that they are the old type Fill Layer with Vector Mask and the addition of a stroke attribute. There are numerous workflow disruptions caused by the "new Shape Layer" pretense.
    Here's how to get the functionality to which you are accustomed...
    The VM of a Shape Layer is only displayed in the Layers panel when the VM is disabled. To disable it, shift-click its "Shape Path" thumbnail in Properties panel. (You can record an Action of shift-clicking that thumbnail to create your own Disable Vector Mask command which can be run when the Properties panel is closed.) The revealed VM can now be dragged to another layer in the Layers panel.
    By the way, you can draw a path and directly create a Vector Mask for a regular pixel layer without making a Shape first. Draw the path with the Pen Tool or with a shape tool set to "Path" mode in its options bar, then Cmd/Ctrl-click the Add Mask button at bottom of Layers Panel when the pixel layer is targeted.

  • How can i change the color of pen tool in photoshop cs6?

    I want to change the color vector of pen tool in photoshop cs6?

    Just to make sure we're communicating properly...
    Is it that while creating a path you want the thin lines, handles, etc. to be a different color?
    Or is it that after you create your path you want to stroke it with a color?  It IS possible to stroke a path, and even to have an automatic Layer Stroke on a path that's any size/color shape you want.  Example:

  • Color selection tool has stopped working [was: need help with indesign cs6]

    I am working in InDesign cs6 and my color selection tool stopped working.

    Do I reply here? I have been creating a newspaper in InDesign cs6 and the color selection box won't work any longer.  It used to work just fine, but now it won't let me access it.
    Someone in tech support last night before they went away, was directing me to: Go to Folder from my desktop, and then to Preferences, then to ~/Library/, then to InDesign version 8.0 and en US.  Then we lost contact and I didn't know what to do next, so I still have the problem.

  • CS6 Bug Report: Pen tool points offset from cursor

    Hello,
    I want to report the current behavior change of the pen tool. In current and older versions, clicking with the pen tool on the canvas, created a point that was exactly centered with the cursor's center point, as expected.
    Now, in Photoshop CS6, clicking on the canvas with the pen tool results in path points created not in the same spot where one clicks, but offset a couple pixels.
    For people who, like me, use the pen tool a lot and do it fast, this change translates into lower precision when creating paths as, when the new points are created, if they are offset, the whole last leg of the path changes position.
    Can we expect that to be corrected for the final version?
    Thanks

    Im trying the BETA on a Mac Pro running Lion. I doubt this is a driver related problem since it is easily reproducible on various systems, both OSX and Windows.
    CS5: Zoom in really close until you can see the pixel grid. Grab the pen tool and create a path anchor anywhere. Wherever you click, a pont will appear.
    CS6: Do the same, click. This time, the path's point will appear in the closest corner of a pixel, as if new paths anchors where snapping to the pixel grid.
    See how anchor points snap to the pixel grid? That doesn't happen in CS5.
    Hope this comment helps.

  • Indesign CS6 hand tool gets stuck and can't use selection tool

    In Indesign CS6 using Mountain Lion, the hand tool appears and I can't select or work with any other tool. All I can do is move the document around. After trying the space bar and other key commands I restarted and it worked for a while. Then it happened again. I work on a Macbook pro, so when I removed the mouse and worked only with the trackpad there was no change. When I quit and reopened, no change. I then deleted prefs and restarted and it worked, but it's been happening from time to time. Anyone know any other fix without restarting or deleting prefs.

    Yes, this is an intermittent problem between Adobe and Apple: InDesign CS6 getting stuck in the hand mode. This happens to me when I am working by remote desktop using Screen Sharing. The cursor turns to a hand tool and you can't change it.
    I stumbled upon a quicker solution (to restarting, etc.) by depressing the Control-Command-Spacebar keys cumulatively in succession. (I just happened upon this out of frustration--it is an old PageMaker toggle sequence.) When I clicked on the screen after doing this, the hand reverted to the pointer. Sometimes you may have to click on the pointer in the tool palette first before the sequence to make it revert.
    I would like to see if this trick works for others. I see on another forum posting about Adobe CC that many people are experiencing this problem there as well. An Adobe moderator has listed the posting as "correctly answered" and solved that the issue is not an Adobe issue (rather bad keyboards, etc. etc.). But it still remains a problem with many Apple users of Adobe products. (It has only happened to me with Adobe products...no other vendors...both in Mavericks or Yosemite.)
