Resizing the text as stage resizes

I need to re size the text, as the stage re sizes. i.e scale the text depending on the stage width,height.
Tried to work on scaleX, scaleY properties. But didn't help.
Any references will be of great help.
--Nitin Pokalwar

Will it be possible to provide some sample code, so that requirement is a bit more clear..
You may try..
def text : Text = Text {
    content: "T"
    font: Font { size: 20 }
    textOrigin: TextOrigin.TOP
    transforms: Scale {
        x: bind (text.scene.width/text.layoutBounds.width)
        y: bind (text.scene.height/text.layoutBounds.height)
}

How can I get just the text to resize, rather than the entire web page?

I used to be able to re-size just text on a webpage by typing Ctrl + +. Today, the entire webpage re-sizes, and when I move to another page it reverts. (I see this mostly in Facebook.). Why did this change, and can I go back to having just the text re-size?

How do I keep text from distorting whenever I resize the text box in Illustrator?

This has happened to me but that was over two years ago and cannot remember how I fixed it. I did not change any settings. It just happened when I rebooted my computer and opened up the file I am working on. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

What version of Illustrator are you using? Text boxes now have two modes. When you are looking at a selected text box, you should see an arm sticking out on the right side with a small circle at the end of it. Double-clicking on that will change between area type mode, where you can resize the box but not the text, or the other mode (sorry- forgot the official name) where you are changing the look of the type itself when resizing the box.
Am I understanding your distortion problem correctly?

Why does Preview automatically resize the text box to cut off the last character of added text? How do I fix it?

Why does Preview automatically resize the text box to cut off the last character of added text? How do I fix it?
I use the Tools > Annotate > Add Text feature, and when I click away after adding text, it automatically changes the text box size such that the last letter -- or last word -- gets bumped off into an invisible line below it, forcing me to manually adjust every single text box. It is highly annoying when trying to complete PDF forms (e.g. job applications).
It appears to be a glitch, quite honestly, an error resulting from Apple's product design. Has it been fixed in the new operating system (for which they want $30)?
I would very much appreciate any help you can provide! Thank you for your time.

Is there a way to automatically resize the text box to fit the text inside, without using the selection tool to resize the corners in Illustrator and Photoshop?

I'm wondering if there is a way where I can quickly resize a text box to fit exactly around the text inside, so pretty much the smallest the text box can go without being too small to fit the text? I know you can do this manually with the selection tool, but is there a button/command that automatically does this in one go?
Thanks

Try this script. Save the page as .jsx the the "Presets>Scripts" AI folder. When you restart AI it will appear in the "Scripts" menu. Select the text block and run the script.
Thanks to Nathaniel Vaughn KELSO for the script.

The short answer is No. But I see that Ray has given you an option.

How can I prevent the text in non-resizable contexts from being cut off?

I have not changed the Application, System, or Dialog fonts from their defaults.
This is the result:
Related: http://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW/text-in-non-resizable-windows-is-cut-off/td-p/92300

Medium might be the default for high ppi monitors but it is very different from the original windows settings that were used when 96 ppi was standard. Of course for a high resolution FullHD resolution on a 15 inch screen you end up with a ppi of around 150ppi.
This article explains somewhat the history of where 96ppi came from and that it was in fact already a convinient misrepresentation of the real values. The problem is partly that LabVIEW makes some assumptions about the size of text based on the actual ppi settings while the rendering of the text as done by Windows can be scaled by your control panel adjustment. However the solution is not as trivial as replacing all assumbtions about the size of text by the new values as that won't always give the correct values either and also has quite a lot of other issues such as controls suddenly looking very oversized when moving a front panel from a low ppi device to a high ppi device. Basically the way Windows deals with screen resolution and different ppi makes it simple for Windows to render text on a display without ugly aliasing effects but makes it impossible for an application to both be text and size accurate when rendering windows like a LabVIEW front panel.
It's also a reason why so called retina displays still don't really work under Windows while IOS has them already for quite some time.
Ravens Fan, Windows 7 has Normal (100%), Medium (125%) and Larger (150%). To maintain the relative text size on an old CRT for a FullHD 15 inch labtop display one would have to use the Larger setting, which is outright ugly. I personally use Smaller on all my Windows 7 labtops because of issues like the LabVIEW front panels rendering but also many other applications get into trouble otherwise. Yes it looks kind of small on my FullHD 15 inch LCD monitor, but at least it is all consistent.

How to resize the text field through the expression?

It is necessary that another layer was at 150 pixels to the right of the right side of the text field.

PACK
Syntax
PACK source TO destination.
Effect:
This statement, which is forbidden in classes, converts the content of the data object source to the data type p of length 16 without decimal places. In contrast to the conversion rules for elementary data types, a decimal separator in source is ignored. This assigns the converted content to the data object destination.
The data type of source must be character-type, flat, and its content must be interpretable as a numeric value. The data type of destination must be flat. If destination has the data type p, the interim result is assigned to it from left to right. Surplus characters are cut off on the left, and the decimal places are determined by the data type of destination. If destination does not have the data type p, the interim result is converted to the data type of destination according to the rules in the conversion table for source field type p.
Notes:
The function of the statement PACK is based on the second half-byte of the code corresponding to a character in most character representations of the BCD representation for the corresponding numeric value. This compilation is generally known as "packing".
If the source field contains a number without a decimal separator, and the target field has dobj2 of data type p with sufficient length and without decimal places, the result of the PACK statement (which is forbidden in classes) corresponds to the result of the statement MOVE.

Any way to resize the "text" toolbar on the right side of the Pages app?

I'm a pretty recent convert to Macs. I've been using a PC for a long time, so most of my experience with word processors is with Microsoft Word. I like that Word allows you to edit your files in a 'Print View' layout, which lets you see the entirety of the document. Unfortunately, Pages seems to not permit this view. Is there a way to diminish the size of the "text" toolbar (right side) in Pages so that the user can see a 'print view' of the document?
Thanks a lot.

Pages is permanently in "Print View", What You See Is What You Get.
The scale of the document is set by the percentage menu top left of the Toolbar on the window
The Format side panel is fixed in width.
Your problem really is that the screen on your Macbook Air is relavely small and the Format sidebar in Pages 5 is permanently large. You can hide the Format panel by clicking on the Paintbrush or Document icon, depending on which is already selected.
On my iMac 27" I have plenty of room to see a 150% view of a page with the Format panel showing, but obviously on your small screen this is not possible. You very likely would need to view the page at 75% or less.

Placing text inline-keeps coming in outside the text box

I have a family tree graphic I made in InDesign, that is saved as a grouped .indd file. I originally placed this family tree into a larger InDesign document that is full of text, and just placed it on top of the text and did a text wrap so the text would no obscure the graphic.
Now I would like to change from a separate placed graphic to an inline text graphic, so the graphic will flow with the text.
When I try either of the following workflows:
--cut graphic, place cursor within text, then paste
or
--delete graphic, choose File > Place, choose graphic.indd file, click cursor into text,
the graphic just appears above the cursor as a separate graphic…not inline.
Any idea what could be happening here?

If you have type, it's best to not rasterize it, but if you do want to do that for some reason, export as PDF, open it in Photoshop and save as a tiff. I don't think there is any real advantage to having something made in InDesign converted to a tiff just to place back into InDesign, but if that's what you want, this is better than eps.

Maybe in PageMaker, but InDesign is not PageMaker. Copying from Illustrator or Photoshop and pasting into InDesign is bad, because you should be saving from Illustrator or Photoshop and placing, but copying and pasting within InDesign is just fine.

Enlarging a raster graphic will lower the effective resolution, but as long as the effective resolution is within your target range, it's OK (e.g., a 600ppi file will be OK if it's twice the size in InDesign if your target resolution is 300ppi). Vector graphics have no resolution, so there is no issue with resizing. I think the advise to not resize was based on not giving PageMaker more to do at the output stage (recalculating the size of placed graphics was thought to involve heavy lifting that you wanted to spare PageMaker from having to do). I don't think anyone still advises that, but if they do, they might see this post and give their reasons why.

How Do You Make an Image Flow with the Text?

Hello all,
I am using CS4 InDesign on Windows Vista. I am fairly new to Indesign but try to do my research and homework well before asking what I hope is not a really dumb question.
I am writing a book of approx. 350 pages that is an illustrated encyclopedia of 156 plants and their oils.
Each 2 page spread is a single entry for a plant. The graphics frames on each spread are identical in size, position and styles for a consistent look throughout the document.As you can see (hopefully) each page is a single column. See screenshot below
In order to overcome my first problem of positioning and sizing the graphics frames uniformly, I created the master pages with the graphics placeholders sized, positioned and formatted to my liking. This worked wonderfully and I placed all of my 300+ graphics by simply over riding each frame.
Then in my editing I decided to add another 2 page spread somewhere in the middle of this fairly large document.
What a NIGHTMARE. The text predictably shifted but now ALL of my graphics were no longer associated with the corresponding text! Arrrgghhh.I had not anticipated this behavior (used MS Word for 15 years) or I would have done something different.
3 hours later I finished re -"placing" the images associated with the correct text.
I researched the help file and found out about the neccessity of anchoring graphics to text. I have read through the threads in this forum, followed links to "indesignsecrets.com/make-an-image-flow-with-the-text" and " Working with anchored objects by Anne Marie Concepcion"
My concerns are this.
An inline graphic places the graphic back onto your text layer for some reason ( Previously my graphics each had their own layer)
Not wanting to start (again) from scratch with my graphics I converted them to inline/custom anchored objects.
But to select then cut then paste every pre existing graphic to anchor it inline seems to be cumbersome and counter intuitive although the top smaller graphic did position well and the text seemed to wrap ok.
When I placed the larger bottom graphic on the left facing page using custom positioning I was not able to get the text to wrap at all.( The in line anchoring did not seem to allow for positioning on anything but the 'Y' axis).
It seems that there would be a simpler way to place text and graphics where you want them and have them associate and flow together (or not) when you want them to and have text wrap easily around an anchored object without keyboard gymnastics. It would seem that the concept of a certain graphic being associated or linked with certain text would not be an unusual concept in desktop publishing.
Am I missing something?
Can you place an anchored graphics frame on the master page with your desired options?
How would this be done if possible?
Is there any other way (i.e grouping) to keep graphics associated with the desired text so that it flows together if extra pages are added?
Is the fact that my graphics frames are on my master pages responsible for my text wrap difficulty? (I have text wrap enabled on my master pages)
Are there any settings, redundant or otherwise, I need to be aware of?
Thank you in advance for any suggestions or directions
L.N.

Hello Again,
Thank You Bob but I am still a little fuzzy on this. I have already created object styles for the graphics frames. For instance the small graphic underneath the heading (Its a drop of oil) has an object style applied. Now I checked and it has the anchored object options checked in the style dialog box. When I reapply the style to the next similar graphics nothing happens. It is still not anchored. Do I need to create a new style based on "nothing" add my effects plus the anchoring options? Basically start over. If thats what I need to do thats OK. As to your instruction that object styles could accomodate this anchoring thing...thats what I thought too but somehow I can't get it to work. See object style dialog box screenshot below:
For the larger graphic on the bottom of the left facing page. I still cannot get any text to wrap. In the screenshot example the text describing this particular plant doesn't go to the bottom of the page so the wrapping issue on this page is moot. However I have some entries where the body of the description is more involved and does go to the bottom of the page and the text WOULD need to wrap around the plant (larger ) graphic.
Hi there Harb, Yes I found out early on that object styles can't apply size (that would be on my wish list for sure) That is why I found that creating my graphics frames on the master page with the correct size, effects and positioning tickled me so much. Can you believe I originally went through and MANUALLY resized and repositioned each and every 300+ graphics in this book but it still wasn't right. I'm nothing if not persistent. (Now if I could just get my grown sons to pick up their socks!)
Anyway the master page graphics frames idea would be perfect if I could get the images to anchor in their respective spots on the master page as well.
For your second suggestion. I am not clear about why I would need to break the threads of each spread so that each spread is a seperate article. Is the threading issue the thing that is causing my text to move on leaving their associated graphics behind? If so how do I go about doing this?
So to recap:
1. I need to know if I can modify my object style or recreate from scratch with the anchoring option (as I said it didn't work)
2. Can't get text to wrap around the Custom anchored graphic at bottom of page at all
3. Im not clear on the breaking the threading on the spreads
I am willing to go back through and start from scratch (new master pages, styles etc ) if neccesary. This book is the culmination of 7 years of research and artwork.Basically the project is DONE. Now if I can just format it correctly.
I can't thank you both enough for your time, suggestions, expertise and patience.
Thanks again

How can I make sure the text size on front panel will be adjusted by itself from PC to PC?

In my VIs under VI Properties -- Window Size, I checked the two boxes:
--Maintain proportions of window for different monitor resolutions
--Scale all objects on front panel as the window resizes
It seems that it worked for everything on front panel except the pure text wording that I put there for instruction purpose. The size of those text stuff didn't get changed proportionally after my application was built and run on different machines so some of them got cut off and looked messy.
Does anyone know how to fix this problem?
Thanks very much!

Hi Andrew,
Thank you for looking at my problem!
Both my development system and test system are Window XP. The font size are all set to Normal. What other details do you need to know?
The text on front panel shows well on my development machine. But when the .exe runs on my test machine, the text size was not adjusted by itself so the text body got cut off.
I found a way to "fix" this problem: I had to drag the text box down and right so there is enough magin between the text body and the box on the right and at the bottom. I had to try it a few times until it finally shows well on my test machine. However, with those magins, it doesn't look nice on my development machine anymore. Also, I only tried on one test machine, if it looks good on one test machine, will it look good on all the other machines? Eventually my app is going to run on Window 7. I'll have to test that out and find out if it's still going to be a problem. Anyway, I don't feel this is the right way to do it. I hope someone knows what I'm talking about and have a soluction to it.
Thanks very much!

What are the appropriate document/stage dimensions in Flash for tablet optimized apps?

What are the appropriate document/stage dimensions in Flash (width x height in pixels) for tablet optimized apps?
(Dec. 2013)
Using Flash and AIR for Android/iOS I would like to develop a educational interactive title optimized for tablet PCs, hopefully both the Android but finally also the iOS platforms. With so many tablets on the market today and with different resolutions (and even aspect ratios) I have difficulty deciding what document/stage size to set for my project/app. I have been experimenting with an Android Google Nexus 7 and Samsung Note 10 tablets and discovered that Android automatically resizes the app's stage to fully fit the screen of the tablet BUT this creates the following two issues for me:
if the stage/document size in Flash is too small and I include bitmaps when the app's stage is enlarged to fit the tablet screen the bitmaps look pixelated.
If I make the stage dimensions too big so that there is no bitmap pixelation because the bitmaps will be shrank instead of enlarged, I am afraid that on some older tablets with slower processors the app may be too slow to run (but I have to say that I did not experiment with very large stage dimensions yet).
Until today I had looked at some of the most commonly used tablets on the market and their resolutions Google Nexus 7, Samsung Note, iPads etc and was inclined towards using a stage size of approximately 1280 x 720 pixels which I considered a medium solution, but now the new generation tablets came out (Nexus 7 gen 2, iPad Mini with Retina, iPad AIR etc) with much higher resolutions so I don't know what size to use now. Anybody has any suggestions?
I would appreciate any ideas and suggestions on this matter.

You explained your problem well enough that looking at the picture won't matter. It looks like you found out too late that one of the first things you should do when you create a Flash file is set the movie properties, which include the dimensions and other things like background color, frame rate, publish settings, etc. While the string that I just listed can pretty much be revised anytime, the dimensions should really be done before anything else, when possible.
One way to go about resizing is to leave the file as is and specify the larger dimensions in the html page code. This could end up reducing the quality of any bitmaps you might have in the file(s) since you would essentially be enlarging them, but any Flash drawn elements will resize cleanly.
If you resize the stage, then you don't have much choice but to resize and relocate everything in it keyframe by keyframe.
