gradanni2,
Make sure you don't have that layer locked.
If you are talking about changing the size of the font, you
would do
that in the Properties Panel.

How to resize object + Text lighting
Hi,
1. Lately I can't resize an object.
The surrounding border of the object is with filled rectanglers and
not with hollow rectangler.Thus, I can't resize objects - how can I fix it ?
2. When I try to mark text, it's mark it perfectly but I can't see the higlighting eventhough I choose it.
How can I mark text and see the text marked (chosen text marked)
Regards,
Koko FikoYou are welcome, Koko Fiko.
1) To freely write right to left, you need an AI version where that direction is native. The Middle East version does it (it is worse for anyone using boustrophedon).
2) If you have Acrobat (not Reader), you may save the first page under the desired name, then save the following page(s) under another name (one by one), switching to Acrobat and using Document>Insert Pages (Alt/Option+D+I) and using After. -
Hi
I am wondering if there is any way to programatically lock a page item (such as a rectangle) so that it cant be moved, but it can be resized..
Any insight into this would be great help
thanksHi,
well, it can be implemented by the means I hinted to in my first mail. Whenever an "illegal" change is made by the user, probably display an alert, and reset the geoemtry change to the prior state by returning kCmdHandled fromt the command interceptor. Beare of the four ways a user can change a spline: 1) Move/resize using the mouse 2) Select and hold down the mouse button until with a move the splines content is also displayed (dynamic) 3) Chnage the splines geometry by specifying the numeric values in th palette, 4) indirect changes by means of grouping such an item and changing the groups geometry. Another way would be in your case by chaning the pages geometry wich would result in a positional change of the spline relative to its page. Maybe you find another way to "illegally" change the splines geometry.
All of this is nothing for the faint at heart. And it will take some time to be implemented and debugged.
I will not share my implementation, but if you really stumble at some point in your way making this happen, I probably will give you some hints to move on in the right direction.
Best,

Can't Move Objects, Can't Uninstall CC
I'm running Adobe CC on Mac OS X Yosemite. I've got variations on the same problem, but the main thrust is: I can't move objects.
More detailed: I booted up InDesign this morning and started working in it. All of a sudden, I couldn't move any of my objects. Can't resize them, can't drag them, nothing. So I look up the issue and this is an ongoing problem apparently. I have done the following:
• Held down Ctrl+Shift+Alt+Command before the launch screen to delete preferences (didn't work)
• Manually found the Preferences and Caches folder and renamed them (didn't work)
• Uninstalled Illustrator, InDesign and Photoshop, then reinstalled (didn't work)
• Restarted my computer after doing the first two (this worked for five minutes until I opened a browser window, and then the problem was back.
The next step I would've taken is uninstalling CC and all the applications, clearing the software, and reinstalling everything. Except now I'm being told I can't uninstall CC. Because it's in use. When it's not.
Look, Adobe, I like the product. But this is bulls***. I've done everything everyone on every message board has done to solve the problem, and it hasn't fixed this. I need the CC in order to maintain job performance. I also need to use the Internet at the same time. This shouldn't be hard.This is an open forum with a mix of program users and Adobe staff, not Adobe support... you need Adobe support

Keynote 6.5 Crashes When Resizing Object
I have been having this problem with the last two versions of keynote on OSX Mavericks/OSX Mountain Lion, the problem is not unique to keynote 6.5 on Yosemite.
Only objects which have been grouped together, such as a graph w/ legend, will make keynote crash when I try to resize them. This is when I use the cursor or the "Arrange" side menu tools. I can move the object freely, I just cannot change its size.
Any help is much appreciated on how I can modify the object so that it can be resized.Sorry I have no real experience with this, just a thought. Did you use migration assistant to move the old files over from your G4 to your Intel? And did you then perform a "Repair Disk Permissions" upon the entire hard drive from within Disk Utility's "First Aid" panel? (located at Applications>Utilities>Disk Utility)
If the file move still is causing you a problem afterwards, you could try and work around it by moving the files in a different way. As a test, create a small file on the G4 and then email it to yourself from the G4. Receive that message into the Intel and see if the Intel can then open the file from inside Mail. This might avoid any "bias" created during the move from old to new Mac. -
How can I resize my symbols etc?
I'm just getting to grips with Illustrator and working my way through a text book. It tells me to rezise the symbols by holding down the shift key and dragging the corner of the symbols transform lines but nothing happens. I expect it to work like it does in Photoshop but all it does is move the symbol. What am I doing wrong?! I have tried other keys but no luck. Thanks for you help in advance...
Firstly, thank you for taking the trouble to answer my question!
I can resize objects as you have shown in Photoshop but for some reason it won't allow me to in Illustrator. I click on the selection tool and a then click on the object I want to resize but it only moves the object, whether I hold down the shift key or not. I have tried a few permutations of all the keys (shift, ctrl, cmd, alt...) just to see if it was different on my keyboard but no joy. There are only 'handles' in the corners on the blue lines not on the centre of each line and I don't get a double arrow when placed over the handles. I've got no idea why this is happening or how to correct it! Any ideas?? -
Resizing objects and groups in CS4 - different from CS3
Hi all,
In CS3 I used to be able to resize objects or groups of objects by just using the solid select tool and just grabbing a corner or side of the object and resizing it. That doesn't work in CS4. Doing the same thing only moves the image around. I have to actually use the scale pop-up.
I can still do the same thing an anchor or path at a time with the outline select tool.
I'm sure there's a way to do this in CS4 and there's probably a switch buried deep in some menu to allow this, but darned if I can figure it out.I'm still on CS3 so I don't know for sure, but I don't think so. It's always been a pretty easy key shortcut to hit by accident though.

Can't edit objects on the stage
Hi,
I'm stumped helping my colleague on the issue below so I'm logging this question.
Issue: My colleague is trying to edit a slide but can't edit any of the objects on the stage. However, it works fine when I open the same project on my machine. Is there a setting on her machine that's causing the issue?
In the screenshot below, check out Slide 2 (selected) notice how:
in the thumbnail there are multiple objects (white image on the left, blue text caption in the center) on the slide.
in the timeline multiple objects are available and selectable. All are set to be visible (the little "eye" isn't switched to off).
when you look at the stage, the only things that we see are the background and a single button.
The objects also appear fine in Preview.
On the stage, can "phatomly" select objects, but she can't change the characteristics of them (e.g., change text in a text caption, resize object, move object).
Screenshot:
OS: Windows 7
Captivate: v5.5 (running as Administrator)
Background info:
This project was initially created in an older Captivate version (4.0 or 5.0) and is now being edited/updated.
Last week, my colleague was trying to edit the same project (using v5.0). When she clicked play on the timeline, her audio wouldn't play. When she watched the Preview or tried to edit the audio, the audio would play just fine. Also, on my machine (running v5.5) it worked fine. This prompted me to suggest that she update to v5.5. Alas, it seems this fixed the audio issue, only to create this video issue.
Thanks,
- DinoHere's a bigger/better quality image. I hope it helps.
Notice how the Text Caption is selected in the timeline and it's properties are visible on the right. Yet the item itself is nowhere to be seen on the stage. Also, now it seems to have disappeared from the thumbnail. -
How can to resize an image uploaded in to the smart image
Hi
I have an image uploaded into the smartimage from the local file system. How can i resize this file or create a rendition for this image?
Thanks
VeenaHi
I got a reference for the same question from Stack Overflow http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14726485/resize-an-image-resource-in-cq5/16728970#16728 970
I tried the same method
Resource resourceNew = resource.getResourceResolver().getResource(img.getFileReference());
Asset asset = resourceNew.adaptTo(Asset.class);
log.error("asset ****" + asset);
Layer layer = new Layer(asset.getOriginal().getStream());
layer.resize(200, 200);
log.error("layer ****" + layer);
Image image = new Image(resource);
String mimeType = image.getMimeType();
ByteArrayOutputStream bout = null;
ByteArrayInputStream bin = null;
try {
bout = new ByteArrayOutputStream(2048);
layer.write(mimeType, 1, bout);
bin = new ByteArrayInputStream(bout.toByteArray());
asset.addRendition("resizedImage", bin, mimeType);
log.error("asset Bin" + asset);
} finally {
// close streams ...
Where img is my Image object and I was able to create a rendition in the dam.
But the rendition I am getting is in File format. Is there a way by which i can change it to png format??? any Help will be appreciable..
Thanks

Since I've updated, I can't resize rectangle shapes.
Since I've updated, it seems like I can't resize rectangles or rounded edge rectangles any more. The bounding box isn't even present, only the nodes for rounding the corners. This only seems to be happening for the rectangle shapes, ellipses and other polygons are unaffected. Did they change something, and this is a feature, or is it a bug?
I've tried restarting and all that, this is happening consistently across many files. Help!Object > Shape > Expand Rectangle
or use the free transform tool
For the benefits of live shapes see here:

How can I resize the PDF I created with a magazine template?
Hello! I used a template that`s a different size than what I need. How can I resize (make it smaller) the PDF that I just created with this magazine template?
So you picked a template in A4 format, and now you need letter. The printer can scale the PDF to 11" and it will get even narrower, leaving large margins. Does it have bleeds? That woudl be a disaster.
Frankly, the best thing is to start over using the correct page size, but you can go to File > Document Setup... in ID and change the shape of the exisiting file. Expect to do a lot of work moving and resizing objects and refitting the type. -
Can I resize the arrows that are attached to digital controls?
Is there a way to change the size of the arrows attached to digital controls, other than by changing the size of the control itself?
Thanks,

There isn't enough control to make the arrows grow with the numeric,
but it is pretty easy to right-click, and choose customize to take
the numeric to the control editor. Once there, click on the Wrench
button to separate the parts of the control. You can now resize the
arrows, even independently of one another. Once completed, you can
save the numeric as a typedef or custom control so that they can be
added to the palettes for frequent use. Or, you can avoid the save
and just replace the or
iginal control.

Dead space showing up in print preview; can't place objects in it
hi -- Somehow, I've managed to get what I'll call a "dead space" in between my last page footer and my report footer. The design view looks completely normal: page footer A, page footer B, and report footer. None are suppressed.
However, when I go to the print preview, what I have is: page footer A, page footer B, a dead space, and then the report footer. The dead space looks like a section, in that the far left of the preview shows lines (like section dividers) both above and below the dead space. However, when I right click on the dead space, I don't get a Section Menu; I also don't get a section name when the mouse hovers over that dead space. I can't place objects in the dead space.
It wouldn't be a huge deal except for the fact that the report is long enough that the dead space causes it to overflow onto a second page, which isn't acceptable.
How can I get rid of this thing? I really don't want to recreate the report. It's quite complex.
Thanks,
Carol
This is Crystal 11.Hi Carol,
That's interesting. I've never heard of this rogue spacing issue.
Why don't you try insertting the following in the Page Footer B Suppress formula.
Not OnLastRecord
Maybe that will help.
