Resize Container and Objects Within - iPad

[dcgall]

I have a container (rectangle) that contains 2 groups of objects. I want to resize the container but it does not resize the contents within. I’ve searched for solutions but the only thing I can find is a desktop toggle to “Lock/Unlock Children”. I can’t find this toggle anywhere on the iPad - and truthfully - it did not work on the desktop either. It worked for me at one time but I must have turned something on/off and now it doesn't. Please see my video for example. Thanks

Hi @dcgall,

It will likely be 'Lock Children' which is toggled on, with the move tool selected go to the tool options menu on the context toolbar (shown below) and then toggle this setting off and then try re-sizing your artboard container again.

Thanks @NathanC , that did it. I didn’t know where to find it. Although, I swear I tried “Lock Children” on the desktop version and it didn’t work. But, I’ve confirmed it works on IPad.
