The Text Frame Option doesn't work on picture boxes. It works on text boxes but not on picture boxes. It worked up until a week ago but the option is now greyed out.

Hi @WiltshirePublications , The content of the selected frame has to be Text in order for Text Frame Options... to be available—that’s always been the case.

Object > Text Frame Options (Cmd/Ctrl+B) is only for text frames; not graphic frames. This has always been its behavior.

Many thanks Mike; I thought we used to access it for graphic frames via Opion B but my memory must be playing up!
