I have the most recent release installed, running on PC. I have used anchored objects extensively for years. Any idea why an anchored object no longer has the "anchor" symbol? (Yes, I am sure it is actually anchored.) Am I losing my mind???

    If your View menu shows "Hide Anchored Object Control," you need to do a preferences reset.

    Thanks, but I had already tried that before I posted. The good news is it corrected itself with a subsequent update.
