Left Spread and Transform Panel

[mrbips]

Suspecting bug but maybe I have a setting messed up.

1. Draw a box on left spread - drag to margin so it snaps on

2. Draw a box on right spread - drag to margin so it snaps on

3. Select left Box - Go to transform panel and resize it by a random amount -- it "Jumps" off the margin 

4. Select the right box - go to transform panel and resize it by a random amount, it stays locked to the margin and no further adjustments needed

 

Anyone else able to re-produce this?

 

I'm on mac 1.7.3 / Publisher

Hi Mr bips,

I haven't been able to recreate this but just to make sure I am doing it right please could you provide a screen recording of you recreating this?

Check which anchor point you have selected.
If you have top-right or bottom-right selected then making the width smaller will make the object “jump” to the right on a 'left-hand-aligned' layer.
You won't see this "jump" on your right-hand page as the layer is already aligned to the right.

YES. This is exactly what happened thank you for pointing out the anchor points. All set!

You're welcome. Glad it was something simple and not a bug.
