Hi there.
I'm learning InDesign CS2 for newspaper layout. If anyone knows the answer to this question, I would be very grateful to hear it, as I think it would save me a lot of time.
Is there a way of making a frame (text box or otherwise) match its width or height exactly to that of another frame, without the original frame moving?
Example: I have created a text box. I then drag a second text box in from a library and drop it beside the first. I select both and click align to top, so they are aligned at the top but not at the bottom.
At this point, what is the quickest way to resize Box 2 so its bottom edge also aligns with that of Box 1? I only wish to move that edge – everything else is to remain exactly in position.
Normally I would do this manually by vertically resizing the bottom edge of Box 2. However, this is fiddly – is there any kind of shortcut? Alternatively, is there a way to resize in increments, in the same way as you can move entire frames in increments with the arrow keys.
Thanks in advance for any help,
