X3 Pick tool

Post by MarjV »

Hi -
My pick tool has lost the nodes on the mid lines top , bottom and sides.
Still has nodes at the 4 corners.

Now I cannot resize an image up, down or sideways - it works in X6.
I like X3 so that is where I usually work in creating.

Any "fix it" ideas other than reinstalling X3?

Thanks, Marj

You could try resetting the program. Close PSP, then click on the program icon on your desktop while holding down the Shift key. If you have customised your workspace, you may want to save it as that too will be reset.

JUst check when you have the Pick tool chosen that it is not set to Perspective as that does not show the mid points.
If it is an actual problem with X3 then you might save your workspace and reset your program to its defaults
Hold the Shift key down while starting the program.

On my ---- thank you. I see it is set at Perspective. Never would have thought of looking at those settings.
Thanks again --- all working fine now that I took it off Perspective..
