Stretching an image?

[Thomas_L_Ashcraft@adobeforums.com]

Illustrator 10 on Windows XP

Until today I have always been able to stretch or resize a selected image by pulling the outline vertically or horizontally.

Today my settings seemed to have changed and it seems my image outline is bounded by only four "pull" points instead of 6 points and I can't stretch or resize the image by pulling.

How do I reset my option to be able to stretch out the image?

Thank you in advance for any help.

I just answered my own question......bounding boxes was not selected.

I seem to be having the same problem you described... except I don't understand what you mean by "bounding boxes was not selected." Can you please explain in more detail how you have fixed the problem... it is driving me CRAZY!! Thanks!

Go to VIEW, navigate down to bounding box and click SHOW BOUNDING BOX.

If that doesn't help then ask again and good luck to you.
