Scale content to fit The first way is to use your main selection tool to make the frame the correct size that you want, dont worry about the image not moving with the frame just make the frame fit the space you require on the Adobe InDesign page. This will scale proportionally it wont stretch your image at all so you can then use the hotspot to adjust which part of the image is visible in the Adobe InDesign frame.
Both the frame and the image will now be stuck together and you can drag it as big or as small as you like. Scale the image and not the frame There may be instances when the frame is the correct size but you want to essentially zoom in on the image making the image bigger inside the Adobe InDesign frame but keeping the frame the same size.
This time we are going to click once on the hotspot in the middle of the image, you will notice a different set of brown handles appear. By grabbing the corner of the brown handles and holding Shift so it keeps in proportion you can drag the image bigger without changing the frame at all on your Adobe InDesign frame..
Just went through the whole thing. You are good. You should post this on hackr too. More people from the design community will love it. The scale function is built into the Selection Tool , so the true power is not so much in the Scale Tool itself, but rather in the tool options. Course Catalog. Training Delivery Methods.

Self-Paced Training. Enterprise Training. The shear angle is the amount of slant to be applied to the object, relative to a line perpendicular to the shear axis. Shear angle is calculated clockwise from the current axis.
You can repeat transformations, such as moving, scaling, rotating, resizing, reflecting, shearing, and fitting. You can repeat either a single transformation or a sequence of transformations, and you can apply those transformations to more than one object at a time. InDesign remembers all transformations until you select a different object or perform a different task. Not all transformations are recorded. For example, modifying a path or its points is not recorded as a transformation.
Transform Again. Transform Again Individually. Applies the last single transform operation to each selected object individually, rather than as a group. Transform Sequence Again. Transform Sequence Again Individually. Unless all values are the default values, clearing transformations results in a change of appearance for the objects. Legal Notices Online Privacy Policy.

Using the Selection tool, position the pointer anywhere outside a selection handle. Rotate an object using the Transform or Control panel. Rotate an object using the Rotate command.
To rotate the content without rotating its frame, direct-select the object. Do one of the following to open the Rotate dialog box:. Double-click the Rotate tool. Enter the rotation angle, in degrees, in the Angle box. Enter a negative angle to rotate the object clockwise; enter a positive angle to rotate the object counterclockwise.
To preview the effect before you apply it, select Preview. To rotate the object, click OK. To rotate a copy of the object, click Copy. Move objects. Select an object to move.
