Adobe Illustrator CS2 tools problem [RESOLVED]

Ioannis · 11-20-2007, 05:23 AM

Hi and thanks for helping me to solve this problem.
When I click the small triangle on a tool to see and open the hidden tools, nothing happens, the hidden tools don't come out(e.g. Rectangle Tool, Pen Tool, Rotate Tool).
Any advise will be much appreciated!

you need to left click and hold to see the pop out. anywhere on the button, the little black triangle denotes that it is a flyout.
you can also use shift and the hotkey to cycle through them. e.g. 'u' is used for shapes, so if you press shift + u it will cycle through each shape option that can be created.
