Does anyone know? When I import files, such as PDF, some objects will have 1 node that looks like it's a double node. I cannot scroll over it to select it, you actually have to click on it. So far they only thing I can do to fix this is to go to each node, click on it, break the node apart, and then weld the 2 nodes back together....This is a long long process if there are alot of pieces to the artwork. Does anyone know what causes this and how to fix it ?

Yes you can (I think).
What you are seeing is probably not one node but two nodes -- one each for the beginning and end of the object. The two nodes are probably in exactly the same place, or sufficiently close that you cannot tell the difference. And when you select a node, nearby pixels are inverted. But if you select two nodes, those pixels are inverted twice -- ie, they cancel each other out.
The nodes, nevertheless, are selected. So it is purely a visual problem.
Apart from not seeing that the beginning/ending nodes are selected, is it actually causing something not to work ... or do you have any other reason to think those nodes are not selected?
Thanks, but that is not correct. for example...i can select any node, and then Tab thru the nodes, it will skip this "problem node" as if it isn't there.
OK, do you have any idea what sort of object does this? And whether it applies to PDFs created by one particular program ?
I believe it is from an earlier AI version, but I don't know for sure. I can email you the file so you can see what am talking about if you like.
Yes, you can mail the PDF to me at harry@busicards.co.uk
