text box grips

Anonymous — Thu, 01 Nov 2007 17:17:54 GMT

Somehow I have lost the the little grips that are located at each corner of a text box. I am not sure what to call them - which is probably why I didn't have any luck searching for a previous discussion...

Not having the ticks/grips makes it very difficult to select the text to edit later. Can anyone direct me to a setting or preference that will make these come back?

Thanks!

With Quick Selection on (magnet button in selection tool) you can select anywhere within the text, so handles aren't really necessary (since AC9 I think). Saying that, I still have mine turned on though.
