You probably ugraded your Mac OS to Sierra.

It has been reported that when you scale the dialog box (or use that arrow), the option becomes available.

Try resetting preferences:

Do one of the following:

  • Press and hold Option+Command+Shift (Mac OS) as you start Illustrator. Your current settings are deleted.
  • Remove or rename the Adobe Illustrator Prefs file (Mac OS). New preferences files are created the next time you start Illustrator.

note: It is safe to remove the entire Adobe Illustrator CS5 Settings folder. This folder contains various preferences that can be regenerated.
