cannot see my selected lines in Illustrator cc

[howhardcanthisbe]

Hi

I'm just trying to do the same job I've been doing for years but have a sudden problem seeing which lines I've selected. I suspect I've switched something on or off somewhere. I select a single line and it is highlighted. I tselect more than one and there's just a great box which also encompasses lines I was not selecting. The individual lines are not highlighted (as they used to be) so I can't see what really has been selected.

Can anyone shed any light on this?

many thanks

Amanda

one's initial suspicion would be show/hide edges (Ctrl + H)

Can you go into more detail about exactly what is happening and what you are trying to do step-by-step?

Also please provide the exact version of Illustrator and OS you are using.

Hello @Production31880722wgqw,

We understand that encountering technical issues can be frustrating. Would you mind sharing more details, like the exact version of the OS/Illustrator, details about your workflow, and a screen recording of the problem (https://adobe.ly/3TJsGQ6), as suggested by Ton, so we can investigate this further?

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Thanks,

Anubhav
