  • @jamesoldman3021
    @jamesoldman3021 Před 5 měsíci

    Hope you can help. For some unknown reason to me InDesign has decided when I open a new document that the rectangular, shape and even the text boxes open with a inset. I would say it is 2mm. In the text box it shows as a 0 inset but it is still there. This is making working extremely difficult as I have to eyeball the inset to get them to fit into the columns.
    Got any idea how I can get rid of this? On previous files this is not there.

    • @SatnamB
      @SatnamB  Před 5 měsíci

      When you open InDesign, before you open a document, go to window>workspace and change it to essentials to hide the home menu. Any changes you make here will be implemented on all documents going forward. See if you can change your settings here to reverse the indentation. Have you tried using a different font to see if the font has been corrupted?
      The alternative is to clear your preferences. However you will lose any custom set ups like short cuts, user dictionaries and value changes.

      Hey Aebel, Sure. Use the Up or Down arrow keys to create or delete rows, respectively; Use the Left or Right arrow keys to delete or create columns. Use the Command/Ctrl key along with the arrow keys to adjust spacing between rows or columns. You can use the Shift key to constrain the shapes’ proportions (to squares or perfect circles).
      Lastly when creating text frames, you’ll end up with threaded frames.
