Hello, I’ve noticed this issue for a long time now in at least CS3 and CS4 on multiple machines, so I know I’m not crazy which is what I thought at first…
Basically, when manipulating anchor points on a path (moving, deleting, etc.) often times (often enough for it to be noticeably annoying) this produces unexpected erratic effects on unrelated paths.
For example, while moving one point or entire path, another unrelated point/path is also moved or even deleted. It seems to make no difference that the other path is on a different layer or group, or locked, or hidden. Same thing goes for deleting. Often deleting a single point on a path will delete the entire path, or even stranger and more annoying, delete an entire unrelated path. Again, it even effects paths that are on separate layers and groups, and locked layers, which seems like it shouldn’t even be possible.
Is anyone else experiencing this? Please help… ;(
P.S. - I’ve experienced this on both Macs & PCs
