Re-setting Default Preferences on Illustrator 10 1

[Ashley80]

Hi

Can somebody help please!!

I know this is probably a simple task to do, but I can't seem to do it.

The problem I'm having is when in illustrator 10 i'm unable to change the scale on anything e.g. boxes, pictures etc....When you click on a for example you usually get those little white boxes in each corner, that allows you to change the scale of the selected item. Now I only get small blue filled boxes, which doesn't let me change the size of the item, omly move its position.

I believe you have to re-set the default setting going through (C-Drive/documents & settings etc....)

Can some body provide me some guidance on how to get my illustrator back to normal

Many Thanks

Ash

Do you have View menu/Show Bounding Box checked?

Using OSX 10.3.9 on a G4 & G5

also, clicking on 'A' gives you node select/edit; clicking on 'V' gives you the select tool, with that, selecting an object should bring up the bounding box with the drag-tabs on the corners.
