I was using the arrow keys to move form fields while creating a form in Acrobat Pro but all of a sudden they stopped working. I've googled and can't seem to find anything. Is there something I might have hit accidentally that turns that functionaity on and off??

Hi,

I have the same problems with Acrobat Pro DC Version 2020.012.20048.

I could only move or resize the fields one time, then arrow keys stop working. With mouse I can move and resize the fields but this isn't so precise as arrow keys are.

Only hack is that I have to mark the fields again with mouse, then I could move or resize with arrow keys. Always for one time.

Are you able to move them in other ways, or resize them, delete them, etc.?

If not, check if the fields are locked (via their Properties dialog).

No. Everything's fine. It's just the arrow keys that stop working. I have to close the file and Acrobat and start again and then it's fine. But then it will happen again
