Question
I have made lots of cards in the past...20 are so.
Today, I can not get the move tool to click on my subject, either my photo are my typing.  I am trying to flip the description on my greeting card.
I have check to see that I am working in an unlocked layer, I get the move cymbal but no dots around the object.
Thanks

Answer
Hi Diane,

Im not sure exactly what is going on without seeing your layers panel or your document. It could be something as simple as you do not have "Auto Select Layers" checked in the options bar above or you may have accidentally flattened a layer. The fact that you can select some layers and move them means the issue is not with your move tool. If you are trying to flip an object using your move tool, double check to make sure "Show Transform Controls" is also checked above.

Thanks

Kevin
