Expert: Kevin Stohlmeyer Date: 4/16/2008 Subject: boundary box problem - illustrator 10
Question i'm having a problem where the boundary box resize handles won't show up. the box is there so it is definitely turned on and will work for a while, then stops. restarting illustrator will resolve the problem for about an hour.
so, for instance, you can have an image with the boundary box showing, mouse over to the corner of the box and the pointer will not change to the double arrows to allow you to drag and resize the shape.
Answer Hi Wes,
Double check in your view menu to make sure that show bounding box is active, and not show edges. They appear similar but bounding box allows you to resize, while edges just shows handles, etc.
If this is not the case, I would check and run all updates from Adobe under the help menu. This was a problem years ago and Im not sure if the patch is available anymore.
