There are a few instances when the handles of selected objects are not readily visible:
1. The object may be grouped with other objects. The handles would then be at the corners of the entire group. Select the Ungroup command. You should see the handles appear at the corners of the object.
2. On color monitors, the handles may be similar to the color of the objects in the background. MacDraw Pro always attempts to make the colors of the handles contrast with the colors of the objects in the background. However, for certain color combinations, the contrast between the handle color and the object color may be very slight.
If so, try the following:
- Temporarily move the selected object to a blank area of the drawing.
- Temporarily change the color of the objects in the background.
- Temporarily place the background objects on a different layer, then hide the layer.
