SarahB Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 I have a text frame with one angled side. I need to make several of these, all different widths depending on the text content, but I can't find a way to change the width without the angle of the left hand side changing too. I can adjust the angle manually, but is there a way to change the length and maintain the same angle? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GarryP Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 Here’s an example document (with video) showing one way to do this. There will probably be other ways (maybe better). 2020-08-31 12-39-34.mp4 constraints-compound.afdesign SarahB 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GarryP Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 You’re welcome. (Don’t forget to come back to see if a better solution has been given.)Note: Check that the document exports correctly before using this technique ‘in anger’; I don’t know if the subtraction in the compound will cause an issue (e.g. it might, or might not, in this case, leave a very thin line at the bottom-left-hand corner sometimes).
