1,104 PointsThanks.
Am wondering if you can help me with something else. At 1.15 when Allison draws the circle i sides the orange and the Bessie's. I only seem to have a round Bessie and four anchor but no horizontal or vertical anchor points that control the radius of the circle. Is there a way around this at the moment I am just trying to adjust the height and width.

19,201 PointsI don't think you see the handles when you initially create the shape, go ahead and select the "Direct Selection Tool",which is the arrow icon that is filled with white, and select the anchor points. Your selection handles should appear then.
