How to change anchor point color?

Community Beginner ,
Jul 16, 2021 Jul 16, 2021

Is it possible to change the anchor point color? When I select an image, the anchor points practically disapper in a light gray color on my white background. In old versions, the points would be the same color as my selection. This seems to have happened with the latest update for me. Using Mac OS Catalina 10.15.7, Illustrator v25.3.1

Same problem here. Why no one from Adobe responds on these kind of issues here?

So you are using version 25? Maybe try and update?

Same here, anchor points are very feint as are the guidelines. When I try to put a guidline to a centre point the centre point often disappears, I find myself switching back to wireframe way more than I should be!! I can get the anchor points to show the same colour of the layer by turning GPU on, but that leads to a different set of problems and becomes very very slow!! It's driving me crazy.

I changed the user interface preference from light to a darker color. Now the anchor points are darker. When I create a new document, the problem goes away altogether.

Drag your element into a new layer with a different color for editing. You can move it back when you are done.
