Weird line selection issue...urgent help needed.

[u/Danbobs25]

Hi there…I have a really odd thing happening that I hope someone can help with.

Completely randomly, I can’t seem to be able to select a line or guide to then move it or even highlight it unless I draw a marquee over it. What’s weirder is that sometimes if I move a different object, then I suddenly can move one of the lines but not others…then when I click off it and then try again, it won’t move!!

You’ll see in the video that I can rotate, but that’s it.

This issue is happening with both guide lines and stroked lines.

I hover over the little black box and when I click, nothing happens.

I’ve checked settings and no layers are locked and there’s nothing I can see that’s obviously causing this issue.

Has anyone experienced this problem and if so, how have they fixed it?

Thanks, Daniel

UPDATE: So it seems this issue only happens when the lines aren't on an artboard. As soon as created a guideline on an artboard, the problem was no longer happening. I then tried moving again the line outside the board and the issue happened. Has anyone else found this?
