      Hi,

      I have a document, about 30 pages with a few layers.

      In these pages I each have an object (let's say a circle, an image or a text frame) that are on the same layer. Now, I can select all these be selecting all pages in the pages panel, while having all other layers locked. But…

      How do I select all these objects and move/resize/etc?

      Thanks!

      Do you mean you want to move all the objects on a layer across ALL pages in the document? InDesign does not allow you to select objects on more than one spread at a time, unfortunately.

      There is a script called adjustlayout that can help in some cases. See blog post and comments afterward at:

      This might help with moving the elements: https://www.rorohiko.com/wordpr…..yerlifter/

      Note: The plug-in is free, but you would have to purchase Rorohiko's APID ToolAssistant.
