Arrow Tool Going Berserk!

Question

Hi everybody, it’s probably something really obvious but my arrow tool, the black one, is behaving very strangely. Whenever you click on a shape it is splitting it. You get a little white rectangle icon next to the black arrow. When you click on text fields duplicates it. Clicking on certain shapes divides it (if they are overlapping other shapes) so when you delete it only part of it disappears! I don’t know what is going on! Can anybody help? Thanks.

Gareth,

It sounds as if it could be a corrupt document; often it is possible to rescue some or all of the artwork by copying parts into a new document and testing whether things work there, much as you have done with one chord diagram.

This can be done in portions, maybe starting with half of them, continue if it works and try the other half if it fails, and so on.
