A_B_C Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 Hi Tim, are you sure you have used the appropriate handle to scale the frame / group? On my machine it is scaling perfectly well (though with a replacement font, but that *should* be not the problem). Have a look at my video (latest Beta, OS X Lion). Hope that helps ... Cheers, Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Harris Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 To expand on that: Art text scales as a normal graphic. Frame text can scale two ways. The normal handles change the size of the frame; the text stays the same size and rewraps to fit the new frame. Frame text also has an extra handle, off at the bottom right, which causes the text to scale too. metajake 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twomen Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 Hi, I reopen this old topic. I need to reduce size of group, which contains Frame text. I can use an extra handle (as described of Dave), but I need to enter exact dimensions of group with Transform panel. Frame text not scaling in this case :( Is there any solution please? 00Ghz 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, if I have multiple items selected, text frame should scale like everything else.

Frame text also has an extra handle, off at the bottom right, which causes the text to scale too. Then there might be a third option - to “scale” the spacing. Horizontal alt-dragging would change letter spacing while alt-dragging vertically would alter line spacing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOWNSETFIVE Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 Hello All- Im new to the forum and have been trying AFD software as an AI replacement. I was having the same issues with text not scaling with group objects correctly. Once I converted all text to curves (outlines) all seemed to scale properly. As a newbie to this forum, I appreciate all of the user and moderator insight on this forum and look forward to diving further into the program. Cheers- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ivan Jerônimo Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 I'm having the same issue. I need to export an A4 version of a A3 artboard. Not founding this functionality in export options, I've created a new A4 artboard and copied all the elements into it. The frame texts inside the selection (which also contained simple graphics as retangles) didn't scale with the other elements when using the Transform palete.

dkx888 Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 There is actually a simple solution to this problem (it was driving me crazy for quiet some time as well until i've found this option). Simply select the group or text frame or whatever, further below the right bottom anchor point (e.g. for resizing, etc.) there is another anchor point, select this one instead and resize it to your liking, that's it :) I've also uploaded a screenshot (see attachment), because it's not that obvious. I also couldn't find any tutorial about this issue on any AD Tutorials, etc., I also couldn't find it in the AD Docs, I wished AD could mention it somewhere, that would be very helpful to everyone who is new to AD. robskinn 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zbigg Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 Hi, I have to raise the issue again: The method with the other anchor is ok BUT: - I need to resize group of objects by given amount and when I enter eg. '*1.6' factor in input field it produces result as if I did with the INNER anchor, therefore text is not scaled properly. Please be so kind to advice sth, I have lots of work to be done still ahead...)) cheers, AF Photo+Designer+Publisher and their betas on Win10 x64/Gtx760+AmdFX+24GB RAM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Select all the objects you want to resize Copy to clipboard File > New from Clipboard Resize new document by *1.6 (select Rescale objects, if using Designer) Copy objects back to original document To save time I am currently using an automated AI to reply to some posts on this forum. If any of "my" posts are wrong or appear to be total b*ll*cks they are the ones generated by the AI. If correct they were probably mine.

Zbigg Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 Thanks for your help. Nevertheless I bypassed the problem for now but would make use of the solution later. cheers, AF Photo+Designer+Publisher and their betas on Win10 x64/Gtx760+AmdFX+24GB RAM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
