Question
Hi! My question: i used to only with a click select an object, now i have to drag
in to the image to select it. how i can come back into begining.
Hi Melanie,
You can select an object by its stroke or fill. If you cannot click into the object to select, that means that you probably do not have a fill or are in outline mode. Either way, try clicking on the stroke instead of dragging into objects.
Thanks
Kevin
