Did something, and now I can't see the camera's and move lights

I must have done something, but I don't see those colored arrows for my lights anymore, so that I can move them.

Same with the Camera's..  I  don't see them anymore

Any clues?

 can you select another obj, (load new primitive,) then it can show you manipulation tool still?

if it work for another obj,,  

go to  scene tab, . then ,status of V (sivilibity)  , S (selection) mark side of each node. (camera, or light or obj etc)

if the S mark are turned as Cross mark,, now these can not be selected in the 3d view directly,

simply click again on the mark of nodes, , or keep un-selectable ,but select it in scene tab.

 

if  any obj can not show manipulation tool,, open  tool setting tab, 

then change Active tool as Universal and see, Manipulator section,  and each Translation, rotation,scale are checked correctly.

Nothing was working, even with new items..

So decided to uninstall it, and now i am re-installing it..  (forgot all my downloads since i deleted the folder)  so it's re-downloading 22 Gb..

I will check once it's all installed again to see if those buttons we're causing the issue.

Thanks for the tip

I feel,, you accidently change tools,, eg if you change tool to surface selection, or Node selction,, it not show you any manipulation tool

(they may show bounding box, to show what item or surface are selected)

So ,if you have same problem, (after re-install items again,,)  please show me SS,

or check which tool is active by Tool Setting Tab.  hope you remove the problem.
