WildCottage Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 The 'Transform' dialogue shows the position, on a page, of various elements. Standard stuff, no problem - except that the 'Y' dimension, in my multi-page document only gives a 'Y' value based upon the origin of the document, NOT the individual page I'm looking at; I get a huge minus figure! (see screen capture; TransformDialogue) I can see how this is calculated (number of pages x depth of each proceeding page, + local distance on page), but when trying to place an item on, say, page 7, I'm left with a complex mental arithmatic excercise to place it at a particular spot. I've tried moving the page origin to no avail. (see screen capture; RulersOrigin) Is there a way to make the 'Transform' dialogue reflect the actual numbers of the particular page I'm working on please?

PaulEC Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 I never noticed this before, but I can't believe it's intended to work like this!

reinhardmohr Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 Hi, I have the same issue. I had reported it here: This morning I again tried to figure out a workaround. But the only thing I could find out that this strange behaviour also changes when I switch the document from facing pages to non-facing pages. Sometimes the first page shows the correct X and Y values, sometimes it does not. Thanks Reinhard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
