VectorCat Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 ..requiring us to go running to the layers studio? Sometimes you can select an item with the arrow tool..sometimes not. Is there a rhyme or reason to this? Thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walt.farrell Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 Are you using Artboards, or have you added Layer layers to your document? If so, check the burger menu settings in the Layers studio, and see if you have turned off the Edit All Layers option.

VectorCat Posted October 3, 2021 Author Share Posted October 3, 2021 Edit All Layers is checked. Thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walt.farrell Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 OK. In that case, if you can provide a screenshot showing the Layers studio and your design, and indicating which items you can't select, perhaps we can provide a different answer. Or, better, a .afdesign document and an indication of what you can't select.

DM1 Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 What about Select under and inside? They can help greatly with selection on complex vectors drawings.
