In the new file can you then move it around freely?

Do you copy and paste it into the new file or just drag?

WHere does the file come from? Did you create it in Illustrator?

Try this:

Select the objects, then press " s " then "Enter ", this will show up the scale tool options, but the scale to 10%

then copy the objects and paste it in another new document

Hi Yoni34575889derh,

Thank you for trying the suggestion shared by our expert. Would you mind telling us the version of Illustrator installed on your machine and the details of your operating system?

If you are using an external monitor(s) with a laptop, please check if unplugging them and then restarting the app and working on your device's primary screen resolves the issue.

Please let us know if this helps. We'll be happy to assist you further.

Thanks,

Harshika
