Hi Folks, I LOVE indesign and was it was pretty much second nature in CS4 but the new CS5 is doing my head in... the only reason being that when so scale things it uses the centre as the base point as opposed to the previous version where it anchored at the top left. I even have the top left square activated but when reducing the size of an object and its contents it centres it- this is sooo annoying and counter intuitive and is making work really annoying! I'm hoping there is just a weird hidden preference but i've asked many other designers an nobody seems to know how to fix it? Its painful when you want to quickly align objects and scale them accordingly? Please help anyone who knows what im on about! Many thanks Tom

Tom,

Next time please start a new thread and use a title that describes your problem. Scaling should be working just as it did before, based onthe chosen proxy point, so there's something wrong in your installation, probably corrupt prefs. Have a look at Replace Your Preferences

Tom dd _ If you want a reply this, I would suggest you start a new topic with a descriptive heading instead of tailing this onto a very long topic aobut other things.
