I've grouped an image (an Illustrator file) and a circle together in InDesign. However, when I try to resize the entire group (by selecting it in the Layer window and pulling on a corner of the group) only the circle resizes. Why is this, and how can I make it so the entire group resizes?
In order to resize any objects by dragging you need to first make sure that they have been selected with the regular selection tool (black arrow). Objects or groups of objects selected in this manner will show a "Bounding Box" (similar to the one that appears in Illustrator) around the outer extremes of the object(s). This bounding box will display white squares at the corners and midpoints of each side. Dragging on one of these squares while holding down the Command key on a Mac or the Control key on a PC will allow you to either enlarge [by dragging outward] or reduce [by dragging inward] the object(s) along with their contents. Holding the shift key while dragging will keep the object(s) in their original proportions.
