      Hi

      Switching on the ‘Scale’ tab in the links panel only displays the scale of raster graphics.

      How can I get it to show the scale of vector objects as well?

      Thanks

      Or in other words, is there a way to check the scale of multiple vector objects on a page?

      You can do that by adjusting Panel Options:

      Hi, thank you for your reply.

      Actually I realised that some vector images display the scale but most of them don’t. The scale fields are just left empty and I can’t figure out why.
      If there was a way I could attach a screenshot I could show you what I mean.

      I uploaded a screenshot here:

      They’re all .ai file but only one is displaying the scale.

      I’d like to say that the image helps clarify the problem, but actually… it’s really confusing! I’m not sure why those would not appear.

      Does it work in other, new documents?

      Ok, so it seems that all vector files which are not displaying the scale are sitting at 100%.
      As soon as I change the scale to anything bigger or smaller than 100% the scale comes up.

      It seems like a bug even though I’ve had this problem across previous versions of InDesign so not sure what the deal is.
