Cannot resize grouped objects

I have a document with a collection of grouped drawing objects. They used to be floating objects and I have now converted the entire group to be inline. Unfortunately it is slightly wider than the page and hence I try to resize it but the group only seems to constrain itself to doubling in width. This can be seen here:

Any ideas? Someone want to ... y'know ... fix this?

I don't hate Pages, but I don't use it because it is so extraordinarily difficult to do anything useful with. Something I find ridiculously frustrating but addictive.
Typically if I don't fawn over it and praise it for what it is not, you describe that as hate.
It is the old "love it or leave it".
As to the generalisation, maybe, but it is something which I have frequently experienced so I can't help noticing, and as another generalisation, not something Americans like to talk about. Another topic for censorship.
Given the absurdities of the last 8 years, it seems that this is why you missed out on a lot that was obvious all round.
I first encountered it at a Mac User Group many years ago where an American friend got over the top angry at an article in a magazine and immediately threatened to cancel his subscription. I thought what an odd reaction, and asked him should the magazine perhaps poll him first as to what he would like to hear, then only tell him that?
Then, as now, it went straight over his head.

  • Resizing grouped objects keynote

    In keynote I would like to be able to resize grouped objects without maintaining proportionality - is this possible?
    The "Constrain Proportions" button is greyed out for grouped objects for me.
    I'm using version 6.2

    Why can't I resize grouped objects in the new Keynote without constraining proportions
    The only people who can give an informed answer are the Apple engineers, however they don't post in the user to user community.
    Keynote 5.3 certainly could do this, but the latest version of Keynote is a completely separate application with different tools and features and file format.

  • Cannot resize CS2 objects, please help!

    Hello,
    I'm new to this forum, hopefully someone here can help me.  I have worked with every other version of Photoshop and have never had this issue.  I just installed (and updated) Photoshop CS2 for Windows.  When I attempt to do a simple resize of an image object, it doesn't work.  The diagonal arrow handler shows up and the bounding box changes as if it will transform, but dragging by the corners do nothing.  I've tried doing it manually, through the toolbar (Transform -> Scale, and Transform -> Free Transform), via CTL+T...nothing.  A couple of times it did allow me to resize but didn't want to let me when I held Shift to keep the ratio intact...but now it won't let me at all.
    The other thing it's doing is when I drag the image object to move it to the corner of the canvas, the image follows my mouse but when I let go to place it pops right back over to where it was, as if there is some hidden anchor.
    As a side note some days I have to open Photoshop several times before I can create a new image or open one, because when I try to nothing happens at all.  So I don't know if the image resizing & moving issues are part of this bugginess or if it's a result of some setting Photoshop employed in CS2.  I have all the Snap to options turned off and have looked all over for a setting that might be causing this, to no avail.

    Thanks, Bart - Yes, I did reset the preferences per FAQ's.  This morning I tried repairing the installation but the problems still existed.  I then completely uninstalled the program and reinstalled it fresh, ran all of the updates again, and tried to play around with the tools I was formerly unable to use.  Everything appears to now be working correctly (although I'm not 100% convinced yet!)  When I installed it the FIRST time, I walked away from my computer while it was installing the Adobe updates, and Windows rebooted on me due to automatic Windows updates.  I'm wondering if that somehow corrupted the installation, as I was having all of the following problems:
    -crop wouldn't work
    -clipboard wouldn't import things to paste most of the time, errors
    -transform and resize didn't work
    -problems creating new files or opening files (no response)
    -lasso would reset in the middle of tracing
    -paintbrush strokes would work and then disappear
    -clone stamp would start working then disappear
    -flatten image didn't work
    There was other random bugginess here and there.
    I will be using the program frequently today and will update this post at the end of the day with whether or not the problems seem to be gone for good after this morning's reinstall.

  • Applescript resize group

    How I can to resize grouped object using absolute dimensions?
    I tried that but I'm newbie into Applescript
    tell active document
      tell group items "<gruppo>" of layer 1 of page 1
      set absolute horizontal scale to 55 as real
      end tell
      end tell

    Ok, half of the problem is solved with this code:
    tell application "Adobe InDesign CS5.5"
      open "Macintosh HD:Users:matteo:Desktop:template.indd"
      tell active document
      tell group "MyGroup"
      set properties to {horizontal scale:50, vertical scale:50}
      end tell
      end tell
    end tell
    Now I like to resize using 4 parameters: X and Y coordinate, width and height in millimiters: How I can do?
    Anyone can help me?

  • I cannot resize the selected text and the object in Illustrator

    I am unable to resize the text and the object with transform tool. It resizes but half of it does not. and not that much i want.

    Ok so if i write some text and all the words are of different sizes and i have to resize it using the transform tool, i cannot resize it unto the size i want. e.g.. i wrote this text "The Big Bold Sale" all the words are of different sizes and are grouped together, so when i resize it using transform tool all these words are resized differently "The big" becomes big, "bold" becomes little smaller and "sale" is not resized.. the image is attached.

  • Cannot resize or move report objects

    Whether I open my report as a Visual Studio project, or open individual RDL files in report builder, I cannot resize or move text-boxes, rectangles, anything.  I can edit text, add or remove items, change colors, etc.  Has anyone experienced this

  • Grouping objects in Pages 5.1

    I apologize is there is another thread for this question but I searched as best I could and couldn't find one.
    I have recently upgraded to Pages 5.1 (not because I had any desire to, but simply to stop the annoying pop-ups telling me to update it). I was reasonably happy with the older version, which handled most of my document needs.
    The 5.1 version has many changes that I find annoying (such as the evident inability to convert text into tables and vice versa), but I thiink I have found work-arounds for all the problems except one. (My prreferred solution would be to go back to the old program but that seems not possible.)
    I cannot get simple objects to "group." I only use "shapes" provided from insert and text boxes. I do not need to know how to group graphics created outside of pages (although it would be nice). But two simple "shapes" that Pages itself provides, when I click on them both and go to the "Arrange" pull down, the "group" function is not on (as it would have been in the old program) and I can't group the objects.
    I realize this may not be the most pressing issue with this new program, but it is cusing me a great deal more work. I used the feature to create fractions in algebraic equations and I could copy and paste a grouped fraction and change the variables, exponents, numbers, etc., quite easily. Now I have to create each fraction from scratch, because the parts don't easily stick together when I copy and try to move one.
    Thanks for any help you might offer.

    Thank you, Peter.
    I had some trepidation bothering you all with my trivial question, but I end up having more information that I ever expected. I really thought I would either be plagued by a dysfunctional WP or suffer endless harassment about updates. Ironically, when I went back to retreive the old Pages at Viking's suggestion, the first thing it asked me is if I wanted an update.

  • Unable to delete User object in FIM Portal - Cannot find the object "#calculateRequestSetTransitionsAssembleStatementsPartition"

    Hi,
    ***Problem
    I encounter a problem with FIM (version 4.1.3441.0 and 4.1.3496.0) when I try to delete a User object (and only a User object) whatever if it is
    manually/Expiration Workflow/Powershell.
    Deleting a User object used to be perfectly functional and, without any product version modification, stopped working. I haven't neither deleted/modified or add a
    "Grant" MPR or any of the corresponding Sets since last time I saw it working.
    Displayed error is "Request could not be dispatched" in FIM Portal and is referencing a stored procedure in Event Viewer.
    ***Error details
    When I try to delete a User object, here is the output :
    Portal
    "Processing error" on submit
    with the following details 
    Request status is stuck at "Validating" until next restart of FIM Service (after what it becomes “Canceled”)
    Request’s “Applied Policy” tab does not contain any MPR where, at least, a “Grant” MPR is expected
    As SQL Timeout is relatively high and error happens quickly, I don’t think there is a Timeout problem under that.

    While there are several SQL Agent jobs (FIM Temporal Events, Maintain Sets, and Maintain Groups among others)created by the FIM install only one of those is enabled and scheduled and it calls all of the same stored procedures that the other
    jobs do. Step 2 is Maintain sets and Step 3 is maintain groups. So the Maintain sets and groups jobs never need to get enabled and scheduled, but if you want them to be maintained more frequently then you can.

  • Resizing selected objects

    Ok, so I am trying to write a script that resizes an object that is selected. I have two objects selected, the one on top is a group item, the one below it is a rectangle. I am trying to resize the rectangle to the size of the group item on top of it with a little margin around it. Here is what I have so far.
    var design = app.activeDocument.selection[0];
         var top=design.visibleBounds[1]+5*2; 
         var left=design.visibleBounds[0]-5*2; 
         var width=design.visibleBounds[2]-design.visibleBounds[0]+10*2;
         var height=design.visibleBounds[1]-design.visibleBounds[3]+10*2;
    var background = app.activeDocument.selection[1];
    background.position = (top, left, width, height);
    The problem is the last line there. I'm not sure how to manipulate the position/size of the selected object or if it is even possible I have searched for it and haven not found an answer. Thanks in advance!

    position property expects an Array, with x and y values, in that order. As for the width and height properties, use them in separate statements
    background.position = [left, top];
    background.width = width;
    background.height = height;

  • Cannot resize some columns in the music folder for my ipod

    It seems I cannot resize some of the columns I'm displaying in the music folder for my iPod... such as:
    Album, Grouping, Kind
    But I can resize the other columns...
    I've tried moving the column around, doesn't seem to help
    I can resize all columns in my Music folder for the PC.
    Any ideas?!?

    ok...
    If I remove the column from my view... and then re-add the column, it all works fine.
    Is this a bug?

  • Cannot join multiple objects into one.

    I have four separate objects that I have created.  I now need to add a white outline.  However, because they are separate, I am getting the outline around the individual objects so it is showing in places where I do not want it to show.  I have tried the join command, group command, etc. but still cannot get these objects to become one object.  Any assistance will be GREATLY appreciated!
    I posted a screenshot below.  I am using AI CS6 v.16.0.3 (64-bit) on a Win 7 OS.

    You should be able to use the Pathfinder pallet to join these. Alternately, you could add the stroke to the group using the Appearance pallet, and then move it behind the content.
    As a side note, if you treat your text stroke the same way, it can be moved behind the text for a better-looking result. Add the stroke to the Text in the Appearance pallet, and then move it behind the Characters.

    What's the problem?

    Hi Valentin
    It is very typical that a Library is not found by the OUI when an installation is going to be done. Basically there are 2 typic causes.
    The first is that the library is not in your OS and the another one is that the library is in your OS but you have not set correctly the LD_LIBRARY_PATH in order to the OUI can find it. The solution is very easy:
    1.- Check where is the library in your OS. It can be in:
    /usr/lib or /usr/lib64 or another directory. connected as root go to / and apply this command to find where the library is:
    find ./ -name libstdc*
    with that command you will see where the library is. Take that path and added it to the LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
    The LD_LIBRARY_PATH is an eviroment variable that must be set in the profile of the user usually.
    Once done all this , reload the connection with the user with what you want to install the Oracle Software and test.
    For any more information or guide replay again friend.

  • Add-ADGroupMember : Cannot find an object with identity

    Season Greetings.
    I have this piece of code that does little else than add a userproxyfull

    Get-ADGroup -server b-004:389 -searchbase $partition -credential $myCred -filter {distinguishedName -eq $groupdn} | Add-ADGroupMember -members $userDN
    $userDN equates to a valid DN e.g CN=user one,OU=myOrg,DC=D1,DC=MS,DC=MyCo,DC=COM
    $partition = "DC=D1,DC=MS,DC=MyCo,DC=COM"
    $groupDN = is a valid distinguished name of the group in AD LDS

    At the moment it appears to fail on any userproxyfull object. I have had a similar issue with Get-ADUser with user proxy objects but was able to get round it by using Get-ADObject instead

  • Transform group objects

    Hello Illustrators.
    I've came across a thought, how to transform a grouped object. like in Photoshop when we use the distort transformation, we can manipulate the corner points
    for a particular occasion. Here in the example I have 3 rectangles one smaller than another, and I I have grouped them. Now I'm trying to figure out a way how to adjust
    the shape into the grey one. I have used the free distort tool, but does no justice. because there is no preview so I cannot see how it adjusts. I'm only after the equivalent of the distorition
    like in Photoshop.
    Thank you.

    The root problem--as I've been pointing out here ever since Illustrator acquired envelopes--is that Illustrator envelopes insist on being created with their curve handles auto-extended. FreeHand, by comparison, provides you a choice of whether a rectangular envelope has its handles initially extended or retracted. So such a thing in FreeHand is as no-brainer simple as applying a rectangular envelope and then dragging its four corners to where you want them (just as in Photoshop).
    To do that in Illustrator, you have to tediously set up guides so as to try to replicate the proportional positions of the envelope's extended handles on each side, after moving the corner points.
    Using Envelope>Make With Top Object only works sometimes, because that feature does not provide any means by which to instruct the program which corner of the artwork is supposed to map to which corner of the already-drawn envelope shape. Instead, it just makes its own "guess" according to the ever-tyrannical horizontal/vertical axes of the page.
