Solved Direct Selection Tool Adobe Community 13571802 Hi, i have been using the most current version of illustrator and the direct selection tool is not allowing me to work with angles. previously i have been able to select a line and when i am not directly clicking on it the anchor points and core line are visible and when i double click i can view the angles. You'll learn how to click and drag to select single or multiple anchor points, as well as how to manipulate path segments to achieve your desired shapes and designs. I'm on a macbook pro (macos big sur version 11.7) using adobe illustrator 2023. when using the direct selection tool and clicking on an object or path, the anchors don't show up and the object path does not look like it is selected. The direct selection tool’s job is to allow the user to work with individual anchor points and control handles. as opposed to the “main” selection tool, which works with an object as a whole. the basic technique is simple enough. once we create an object, we can switch to the direct selection tool.

Illustrator 29.4 (64 bit), the direct selection tool cannot grab a selection by anchor point after recent updates. In ai my path is selected. i have two control handles showing, one on each anchor point. i take my direct selection tool and hover over the (ball?) at the end of one of the control handles. problem: when it hovers over the ball it does not convert to black to show me its ready to be draged.

Illustrator 29.4 (64 bit), the direct selection tool cannot grab a selection by anchor point after recent updates. while working with a group of entities (three layer line segments, with identical node count and positioning), i used to be able to select isolate a group using the selection tool (v), once the group was selected isolated i could switch tools to the direct selection tool (a), then.
