For some reason when I select the 'line' tool I keep getting an arrow instead. I have no style selected I have tried shutting down my computer and several other actions to get the 'line' tool to work correctly. It has worked correctly in the past. I am working with CS3

I presume that you are referring to the vector line tool pictured here?



If so click on the little triangle dropdown at the end of the vector shape menu at the top of the page. (top of screen menus)



make sue that neither arrow head is checked in the box. That should fix your problem...

I know this is mostly a thread inspired by a spammer, but it was benefitial to me because I had forgotten that you can draw arrowhead lines directly (instead of using the SHAPES pallette thingy!

So, in this case, YAY SPAM!! YAY JERRY!! Very Happy

(of course, if the dude who started this thread is a real guy, then WELCOME NEWBIE!!! Smile )

If GOOD comes about through an act of EVIL, is the EVIL still EVIL?

Yes. It is still EVIL.

But the GOOD thing still stands as GOOD.

I completely agree.

You can't deny that the slaughter of baby seals is an ugly practice, but you also can't deny that my sealskin parka and matching hat is f*k'n cozy!
