The contents of a frame scales to fit within the frame.

To resize a frame either:
  • Select the frame and then drag an edge or corner to a new size.
  • Specify width and height values for the frame. To do this, right-click on the frame and select Frame Properties. In the Frame Properties dialog box, enter new Width and Height values.

When resizing image frames, you can only drag a corner. The image scales to fit within the new frame size. For details, see Adding an Image to a Layout.

The Width and Height values are in the default units set for the application. This setting is on the System Settings Preferences dialog box, which you can open on the PRO tab, by pointing to Options and clicking System Settings. The Paper and Layout Units list sets the units, such as inches, points, or centimeters, for the Width and Height values.
