Can't resize checkboxes or fields move them after I've created them

[Mel27867673tmyn]

I have checked all of the properties to make sure that nothing is locked.  None of the handles work once I have placed my field.  

I haven't make a form for quite a long time (a year?) but I was able to resize fields then.  I can place fields and I can delete them but that is it.

I have Adobe Acrobat Pro on a Win 11 machine.  Any help would be welcome

Are you in Prepare Form mode? Can you resize them via the Position tab?

Can you move/resize fields by changing the values in the Position tab?

Yes, I can do it that way.  That way works.  But it is tedious to try to figure out how to re-shape it into the right place in the right size, if that makes sense.   

Any ideas as to why it isn't working?
