I´m trying to reduce scale on a group of objects;a map, some lines with arrows and shade and also text blocks. When I´m trying to reduce the size of the group the message "unable to set bounding box" pops up and its impossible to continue scaling. It has happened with different files and objects, always the same message.
I´m using Indesign CS3 5.03 on Xp professional
Can the bounding box be adjusted, in shape, to a circle?

I've tried to save as in Acrobrat and then place, get the same message. I've opened the file in Photoshop to re save and get an error message. I can't change our workflow for just me because I'm the only one having this issue.

I clicked 'back to finder' button on this message and the program crashes.
View 8 Replies View RelatedMy InDesign document has a total of 55 pages. My page numbers are set up in a master. Some of the pages display the page numbers correctly: "Page X of 55" but others do not "Page X of 43". Why is it unable to detect the correct number of pages?
View 7 Replies View RelatedI've just opened a few of my files in inDesign CC and I am unable to select, move, edit any of the existing text or images. I'm only able to add new things on top of it
It's like the page is locked, but I see no indication that it is locked.
I am unable to reset the inside margins on an existing document. Editing "Document Preset" for inside margin has no effect on the document - I can change the numbers to any value with no effect on the document. Changing gutter has no effect. I have tried setting margins in the master pages, also no effect. I can change margins by right click on an existing text frame (text frame options), but this only allows setting left or right frame margins for the whole document.

Other than the 'show bounding box' check box.... is there any other reason I can't get my bounding box to show? It seems to be totally random. I can't get the bounding box to show.

View 1 Replies View RelatedMy PS CS4 crashed the other night and erased all of my settings. Now, when I have a layer selected, I can't see the bounding box. I have checked auto-select, layer and checked show transform controls. I have view>extras checked as well. All I see are little tiny squares in each corner of the layer and in the middle of each side. I used to have a dashed line around the object and it is gone. Here is a shot of how it looks with the word strip selected: [URL]

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm using the following code to take a snapshot of the model:
private Bitmap GetScreenshot() { int cvPort = Convert.ToInt32(Application.GetSystemVariable(RenderingManager.CVPORT_SYS_VAR)); using (View view = new View()) { this.graphicsManager.SetViewFromViewport(view, cvPort); view.VisualStyle = new VisualStyle(VisualStyleType.Hidden); using (Device dev = this.graphicsManager.CreateAutoCADOffScreenDevice()) { dev.OnSize(graphicsManager.DisplaySize); dev.DeviceRenderType = RendererType.Default; dev.BackgroundColor = System.Drawing.Color.White; dev.Add(view); dev.Update(); using (Model model = graphicsManager.CreateAutoCADModel()) { using (Transaction transaction = this.database.TransactionManager.StartTransaction()) { BlockTable blockTable = (BlockTable)transaction.GetObject(this.database.BlockTableId, OpenMode.ForRead); BlockTableRecord blockTableRecord = (BlockTableRecord)transaction.GetObject(blockTable[BlockTableRecord.ModelSpace], OpenMode.ForRead); view.Add(blockTableRecord, model); transaction.Commit(); } Bitmap bitmap = view.GetSnapshot(view.Viewport); view.EraseAll(); dev.Erase(view); return bitmap; } } } }
I'm currently passing the entire viewport to the GetSnapshot method, but I'd like to restrict it to the minumun rectangle containing the drawing. The following image explains what I mean (in red the viewport, in black what i need):
how can I compute the black rectangle?

View 7 Replies View RelatedI have a file that is 13 x9. In print dialogue box I used the bounding handles to shrink it to 9x6.
Now today I want to print at true file size. I open image size dialogue box and it is still 13x9. But when I open print dialogue box it still says 9x6? why? and it look 9x6 in the preview, not 13 x9 which is the real size of file -- so I'm confused.
If I type in 13 x9 or use bounding handles again to get 13 x9 am I now upresing the file??

Is it possible to get all the 4 values of the bounding box for a particular object.I have to plot a curve of maximum point for a particular object on a given path at certain intervals(ex: a block on a curved line and distance between each block should be maintained say 10mm).The problem im facing when im connecting the maximum points is if the path is inclined then the maximum point coonecting line intersects the block at some places.

I was trying to creating a bounding box, and I wanted it to be curved. I know how to do it with a selection, but I really don't want that because I want to have this as a vector. I need to use a shape. But when I use the shapes, they keep filling with a colour, and when I turn that off, I can't keep the outside border on.
View 3 Replies View RelatedIm Trying to add text using a bounding box.
When I drag the box out to the size I want and go to type the insertion curser doesnt appear. when I type something nothing appears no matter what size or font of text I use.
I've tried making the picture bigger but it doesnt work. When I go to delete the type layer it registers that I typed something and askes ifI want to delete it but it never shows the text in the box.
Ive even onpen new windows and it does the same thing whether I use white, transparent or background layer settings.
Going from shaded with edged faces, to wireframe and then back again, turns on the bounding box.

View 0 Replies View RelatedI've been working on this project in Illustrator for a day or two now. All of a sudden, all objects, both preexisting and newly created, have a very large purple bounding box.
In order to alter the size of the object, I have to find the corner of the large bounding box. I have a feeling it may be a setting I hit as this began happening after I was fiddling around with adding more artboards.
