How to adjust the size of the box around text

[Christoph]

Hey folks,

I'm having some trouble with this seemingly simple task. Is there a method in Layout mode to uniformly resize the text box, ensuring consistent height and width regardless of the text length? I have a batch of over 50 of these and would greatly appreciate a way to adjust them collectively. I've included a screenshot for clarity. Thanks for your assistance!

In the Position pane of the Inspector, under Arrange & Align, you will see 6 Resize buttons.

The same functionality is provided in the Arrange > Resize To > menu items.

Over 50 text boxes with hard-coded values does raise an eyebrow.

Thanks for providing the information and the link, comment. What threw me off guard was the requirement for two or more highlighted text boxes to enable the Arrange and Align functions, in addition to those under the Arranged Menu Items. Regarding the quantity of text boxes, I understand it might seem excessive, but I'm merely exploring different templates and designs.
