Text Frame Insets are always synchronized (symmetric) (UI Issue)


Recommended Posts

I suspect that the Insets settings on the Text Frame panel are not working correctly. There are 4 settings (left/right/top/bottom) but they are always forced to contain the same value. E.g., if I put ".2 in" in one of them the others also adjust to that value. As all are settable, it seems  more likely that Publisher is intended to allow non-symmetric values, but it doesn't.

[Edit: As mentioned below, it was really a UI rendering flaw in Publisher where the link/unlink icon is not shown properly. This should be fixed.]

Wow. Thanks.

Yes, that is very faint (as you can see in my screenshot). Once I clicked it, it shows up whether it's set to linked or unlinked. But initially it's pretty invisible. Perhaps that's something Serif should take a look at :)
