Hi everyone,

Is it possible to change the size of a field box without using the mouse? I have a field box that I want to make a little bit larger, but when I click and drag using the mouse, the next size it will allow is too large. Is there any other way to change the size of the box to make exact changes? Thanks!

Turn off Arrange >> Object Grid, and you can also change the size of the field by using the View Object Info

In Layout mode, select View > Object Info. This enables you to enter precise object dimensions numerically. For better control, click on the units until they change to px.

You can also override snap-to-grid by holding the Command key when dragging, or turn it off (in Arrange menu) or change the grid spacing (in Layouts > Set Rulers…).
