Hidden edges in Adobe Illustrator CS5

Asked By peter barnes 400 points N/A Posted on - 10/27/2011

I am using Adobe Illustrator CS5. It is very impressive when creating distinctive artwork, but I am having problems with the clipping path. When there are objects on the clipping path, the path edges are hidden. I can only see the outside edges of the clipping path displayed. How can I unhide the edges of all the objects inserted?

I hope that you mean the stroke paths. Keep in mind that this is a normal effect of creating a clip mask. If you want the edges of the item you are using to show then you will have to copy paste it to the front. If they are in a group then they should all be visible. Nothing should change, group objects do not usually change their appearances. The other option is to select your object then at the top of your screen their are two buttons that look like circles they have dots inside of the circles. This will allow you to edit your object. Just toggle between this two objects to be able to see the edge of your item.
