When you are in the select tool, on the control panel - is the Show Transform Controls unchecked? If so, click it.Screen Shot 2017-10-02 at 9.33.36 PM.png

DO you mean that when you make a selection that the marching ants no longer show? Perhaps you accidentally hid selection? Cmd/Ctrl+H if so, just hit those keys again and it will show the selection again. As for "also I could rise and what not the objet on the selection" I don't know what you mean.

Oks I will place it out with pictures...

Yes when you make a selection on photoshop

I used to get the Dotted line where the Item is.... Now its no longer there..

I have restarted my system 5 times now and no luck...
I have open various projects and its is not there...
Hmmm.. I do not want to go to the long process of clean install and so on...
Can anyone help me fix it?
And yes I did try the CMD+H /& or/(CTRL+H) and no luck

Here is my picture of a select layer but the item itself is not selected its like gone some how?

As you can see I have selected the Computer and still no go no dotted line or what not like I used to have!

Now if I go to Edit then to Transform and Select SCALE i then can see the LINE but just to scale not to move around and what not...

As you can see now the Computer is selected but with a complete line to SCALE not like the DOTTED LINE I NEED when I SELECT ANYTHING IN PHOTOSHOP When ITS MY WORK..... Hmmm so what did I DO WORNG?


ANY ONE?

its like a cross and a circle also inside when you select and image... Do you all catch my drift?
Sorry but thats the best i can do as to explaining this issue.
Hope this works?

AND WE CAN GET ME ON THE ROAD AGAIN!
