Italian Version :

Buongiorno,

mi sono appena imbattuta in un problema con lo strumento forme di Illustrator. Quando vado ad usare una qualsiasi forma, per esempio un rettangolo, questo mi viene ripetuto all'interno della della stessa con altrettanti rettangoli di varie dimensioni, per farvi capire meglio posto uno screenshot del problema : http://i66.tinypic.com/8zi4c1.jpg  . Questo è accaduto dopo che ho cliccato più volte sullo strumento dalla barra degli strumenti, ovviamente senza avere nessun risultato apparente. Ho provato anche con le altre forme ottenendo lo stesso risultato. Qualcuno può aiutarmi?

Grazie in anticipo.

English Version :

Goodmorning! I just had an issue with the shape instrument on Illustrator. When I try to use any shape, for example a rectangle, this creates many rectangles in different sizes, inside the main rectangle. You can find here a screenshot to show you better:  http://i66.tinypic.com/8zi4c1.jpg .

This happened after i clicked many times on the instrument on the bar, thinking that that would lead me to the options choice. I tried also with other shapes, and it happened as well. Can anybody help me to remove this "multi-shape" option, and so get back to the single one?

Thank you in advance.

The suggestion was to nót use the Tilde key, because that is a trick on an English keyboard to get the effect you described.

Do a Google search for: Illustrator tilde key

Check if any key is stuck on your keyboard, or restart as Kurt suggested.

Check to see if your Tilde key (~) is stuck.

Depending on language and system this might be other keys.

German/Mac it's the <

Don't know about Italian, the documentation should know that.
