PolyStar Tool

I was working with the PolyStar tool in Animate 2018. When I returned to Animate two days later the PolyStar tool was missing from the Tool panel! What can I do to bring back the tool? I have already tried resetting the workspace.

    Can you post a screenshot here for us to see what's happening?

    Also, can you try resetting preferences to see if that helps? Re-create preferences

    Thanks,

    The default tool palette has in order the Rectangle, then Oval, then PolyStar, then Pencil tools. Are you saying yours skips from Oval directly to Pencil? Nothing in between?

    If that's missing, check Animate's tools folder. On Windows this will be at:

    %LOCALAPPDATA%\Adobe\Animate CC 2018\en_US\Configuration\Tools

    In this folder you should have PolyStar.jsfl, and five other files with polystar in the name.

    You are correct. The polystar tool has totally disappeared.
