Tilde key not working

My Tilde/Graves accent key is no longer working to transform a pattern within an object. Normally, I can rotate or move around a pattern when I hold it down without moving the object. It hasn't worked since my last update.

    In my 26.5 tilde doesn't work at all. Neither move, nor scale, nor rotate.
  • Tim commented  ·   ·  Report

    Rotating and moving the pattern works with the tilde key, but scaling does not work. A bug?

    Hi Adobe folks,
    I used tilde with the white arrow with the + (GroupSelectionTool) and it worked for moving the pattern inside the object.
    To rotate the pattern inside the object used tilde and the Rotation Tool.

    Hope that helps

    Going back and forth between the preferences pane or the scale dialog just to do something so simple is nuts. Please fix!

    It was working for me and all of a sudden stopped working a couple days ago, along with the spacebar shortcut for the hand tool... Very frustrating.

    It's 2021. This is still not working. Come on Adobe, you have all our money. Fix it.

    Has this issue been fixed for anyone yet? I can't seem to rotate patterns within an object either...
