Excuse the horrible photo. I couldn't get print screen to capture the cursor!
Does anyone know what this symbol means? It pops up on my cursor around certain bits of the designs i've been working on recently, never seen it before..... It's generally when I hover to the side of the selected object. But it doesn't seem to do anything?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks.
Hello @JG666,
We understand how troubling having your cursor change appearance in the middle of work can be. I hope the suggestions shared by Doug and Monika helped resolve the problem.
If not, kindly try resetting Illustrator's preferences as described in this article (https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/kb/troubleshoot-preference-issues.html) and check if it helps.
Disclaimer: Please note that resetting preferences will remove all custom settings, and Illustrator will launch with the defaults. You may save a backup of these settings from the location mentioned in the article.
Also, try running Illustrator under a different administrator account (Windows / macOS) and sharing your observations.
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Thanks,
Anubhav
