is there a way i can restore all my tools to default in PE6. my tools are not acting right-the hand tool stays up even when i choose dodge tool then when dodge does show up it wont dodge so i was thinking maybe a restore to default might help. or maybe someone will have a better suggestions. i didn't start having trouble until i loaded all my digital scrapbook supplies onto a new catalog in PE6. could that possibly be the problem. it also started crashing around then too.:(

klaher,

Yes!

At the left end of the Options bar, there is a small down-pointing arrowhead/triangle thing.... click it.

Then you can choose from Reset Tool (to reset only the current tool) or Reset All Tools.

HTH,

Byron

Hi, if the reset all tools does not help check out the spacebar.
Holding down the spacebar will give you the temporary handtool to move around.
Is something resting on it or is it sticking?
Something fall between the keys?
Just an idea.

Edit:
Do you have a Wacom Tablet and is the pen resting on it?

You may also reset the preferences file by holding Alt+Shift+Ctrl before clicking on the Editor button when you launch PSE.

This would prompt you to reset you preferences (which includes tools) and fixes most Editor problems.

Hope it helps,
